NORTH STAR
ADVENTURES

A phenomenal tour I ended up doing it twice! Night one was with Brendan who was attentive & did a great job of hunting the Aurora. Night two was with Joe who was entertaining with brilliant stories. Both nights were amazing, they made sure everyone had their photo with the Aurora. The hot chocolate and maple cookies were a delight.

Aurora Hunting Tour with North Star Adventures was an unforgettable experience to my family. We had a great time with North Star Team, Joe, Brenden, Raj and Carol. Especially, Joe is an amazing and cool aurora hunter! He has a lot of professional knowledge about aurora and actively led the tour. Thanks to his passion, we finally could see the aurora. Also, his ability to take photos is awesome! We could get great photos with the aurora thanks to him. Joe is a very witty man, so we enjoyed the whole tour without getting bored. And other guides were very kind and made a lot of efforts to make tours more comfortable. I wanna say thank you guys again:) Plus, hot-choco and cookies they prepared were sooo delicious and made us warmer. I strongly recommend this tour:)

I originally saw North Star Adventures on GMA with Ginger Zee. I've dreamed for seeing the northern lights, even went to Iceland but it didn't happen. So when I called to inquire about their packages, and the lady on the phone said I will see them every night, I was a bit skeptical. But that's what happened!! Joe and his team are so much fun and truly made every effort to make our four days AMAZING!! I was there with 4 of my friends; the accommodations, the meals, the excursions, the people, the entire experience was a 10!

This truly was an experience I will take with me forever. The process is so relaxing as they pick you up from your hotel and keep you updated with times. I got to celebrate my birthday under the aurora and I am so appreciative of how passionate Joe is about the tour. Joe also took some amazing shots of my friend and I as well as had a tripod so we could take a bunch of photos. If you want to not only experience the aurora but also Yellowknife, I could not recommend this tour more! Do yourself a favor and book it! (Tip: get familiar with your cameras night shot setting so make sure you can take some nice shots)

If you really want the best chance to see the Aurora from the best locations, this is the absolutely the company you need to go with! They actually drove around to find a break in the clouds where we were able to see the aurora with the naked eye. Joe was very informative and obviously enjoys what he does!!

While it is true you can stay in 1 spot and look at the aurora that are available to you there, if you've gone to all the trouble and taken the time to get yourself to Yellowknife, go aurora hunting to optimize your viewing opportunities! I had been following and admiring Joe's photos on a couple of aurora groups on Facebook for several years, so he was my first and only choice. and it was a good one. Joe and his North Star Adventures crew are second to none--they know the popular spots, and the best spots, and even better, the spots where no one else is. And his personal warmth and enthusiasm just adds to the good time. Looking forward to also getting the photos he took of us.

It was a great decision that we had chosen to come to Yellowknife and joined North Star Adventures for the five nights aurora package tour. We were not disappointed as the aurora came out every night, dancing in the sky, displaying a great array of colours and putting on a great performance every night while we were there. Joe, our guide, had done a great job in taking us aurora hunting. I was amazed to see Joe, who has been encountering aurora borealis since he was young, still got so excited as we were when the aurora appeared in the sky. The included 3 days day tours were well organised. I enjoyed the indigenous storytelling tour, which gave me more insight into the culture and history of the Canadian indigenous people. I was touched by Joe’s own story. I would recommend anyone to join North Star Adventures to fulfil their dreams of seeing beautiful aurora borealis.
