Tundra Lodge Adventure

Stay at the unique Tundra Lodge designed for polar bear observation!

Trip Overview
  • See polar bears at all times of the day in their natural habitat
  • Overnight directly on the frozen arctic tundra in the comfort of our unique mobile hotel
  • Safari along the ice-bound shores of Hudson Bay in search of arctic wildlife

         Check out our other Churchill 
         Polar Bear Adventures Here!

We are thrilled to offer travelers an extraordinary polar bear adventure – a stay at the Great White Bear Tundra Lodge, situated outside Churchill on the arctic tundra itself. As evening falls, guests remain in the domain of the polar bear to experience sunset across the snow and ice. Safe inside our custom lodge, we experience surprising comfort, considering our environs. This “train” of connected bedrooms, dining room and lounge car is on wheels, allowing it to be stationed for optimal bear viewing each season. There’s no more thorough immersion in the world of the polar bear than on this most unique adventure to the north.


Location of Adventure
Churchill, Manitoba, Canada

Group Size Limit: Approximately 28 Travelers
A very important feature of this polar bear adventure is the limited group size. Nature is always best experienced in smaller groups and it is particularly important on this trip so our guests have plenty of room on board the tundra vehicles. On this trip our Tundra Lodge holds 32 guests plus staff but we limit the group to approximately 28 guests. On our arctic tundra drives we generally accommodate 14 guests which leaves plenty of room to move about the buggy and see polar bears.

Included
R/T flight from Winnipeg to Churchill, accommodations, all meals (except either lunch or dinner on your final day in Churchill), services of NHA's professional Expedition Leaders and assistants, all activities/entrance fees, evening wildlife and cultural presentations, all taxes and service charges.

Not Included
Travel to and from Winnipeg, lunch or dinner on your final day in Churchill, alcoholic beverages, gratuities, travel insurance, items of a personal nature (telephone calls, laundry, etc.).

Physical Requirements
Easy
This expedition requires very little to no walking. Buggies can sometimes offer a bumpy ride.

Getting There & Getting Home
In case of flight or weather delays, we recommend that you arrive a day early and either participate in our Extra Day in Winnipeg program or stay on your own. Our expedition begins with a 7:00 pm welcome dinner on Day 1. You are free to depart at any time on the final day.
