Choosing The Best Churchill Manitoba Polar Bear Tours

By Paulette Mason


Vacations to the far northern areas of Canada and Alaska can be a very exciting once in a life time experience. That presents the main reason to make sure your choice of activities will bring you the utmost pleasure and give you memories that will be with you forever. Selecting one of many Churchill Manitoba polar bear tours may provide just what you are looking for.

With the largest population of bears in the world in this area it is easy to see why it is considered the polar bear capital of the world. Tour promoters and guides will guarantee that you will see and be able to photograph numerous bears during your stay. The lodges are located in the midst of the bears range and near the coast where they feed and hunt.

You can choose to purchase a tour from a lodge that allows you to purchase your own air fare and lodgings prior to your arrival or choose one of the lodges that supply the entire package of travel, lodging and tour arrangements for their clients. Which ever package you select you will be assured of excursions onto the tundra and close encounters with bears. There are vehicles called tundra rovers that transport guests to the best viewing areas for bears.

Some larger transports have been remodeled to accommodate only fifteen people in an effort to enhance the experience for their guests. The extra room provided gives the passengers extra room for taking pictures and watching an unobstructed view of the bears in the wild. Lunch and drinks are provided by the lodge and the trips cover an entire day returning shortly before sunset.

There are companies that take their clients to the areas of highest sighting opportunities and lead them on foot to safe positions to view the bears interacting together naturally. These walking excursions are across the tundra which is flat and fairly easily maneuvered by people of all ages. Children under eight years are not allowed to participate in these trips for safety reasons.

One company offers the option of staying in a mobile hotel. They have created a extra large vehicle that sleeps up to thirty people in single rooms. It also contains showers, bathroom facilities, windows that open from a control room and a viewing platform that brings them within a foot of bears in a secure enclosure. They also supply an award winning chef for the dining pleasure of their guests. Clients who opt for this experience can look forward to several days and nights in the wild with all the comforts they find at home.

You will find that the tour guides in this area are highly trained and skilled in their trade. They have many years of experience taking their clients to the very best locations to view the bears. Their employers provide them with yearly training and seminars to assure their skills are finely honed and the clients are kept safe while encountering any bears. During the seminars they have opportunity to share with other guides what they have observed or learned over the past year.

You must arrive by air to experience this area so seclusion from crowds is nearly guaranteed. When all things are considered this may be a one of a kind adventure that might well turn into the high point of your life.
