2026 Itinerary: Nov 6-13, 2026

Nov 6 - Fly into Winnipeg, Canada (YWG) to be welcomed by your new friends Brooke & Arthur. Settle in to your cozy room at the Courtyard Marriott and rest up for the busy week ahead.

Nov 7 - Wake up and rejoice as we prepare to fly together from Winnipeg to Churchill. After arrival in Churchill, we'll do a tour of the area. Churchill is a unique frontier town on the edge of the Arctic with a fascinating cultural history and some interesting sights to see. After a tour, time and schedule permitting, we will head out onto the tundra to begin our polar bear search in earnest. 

Nov 8 to Nov 11 - Wake up early and set out each day on the search for soul filling experiences in the presence of polar bears. Although polar bears are our main target during days in the field, keep a close eye out for some of the countless other beautiful species that call this remote corner of the planet home: wolves, red foxes, arctic foxes, ptarmigan, arctic hares, and more. Upon returning from the field, enjoy image review sessions, conservation presentations, and more from your guides and Churchill locals before heading out for a warm and cozy meal with your friends at one of Churchill’s familial restaurants.

Nov 12 - By now, our memory cards are full. Our faces hurt from smiling so much. We’ll spend the morning tying up loose ends in town (aka last-minute souvenir shopping) and then we fly together back to Winnipeg where we’ll check back into the Courtyard Marriott for the night.

Nov 13 - No time for good byes, we prefer to say “See you soon”. Begin making your way home with your heart filled and your soul replenished after an epic week of truly wild experiences, and get ready to share the incredible images you’ve created along the way!
