Wonderful tour! Our family did a snowmobile 1/2 day tour with Fabian and Raphaelle. They run a top notch service oriented business. Their equipment was great quality and snow mobiles ran well with extras such as hand warmers on the throttles. While we had some of our own gear, Fabian made recommendations for additional gear (they provided as part of the tour) to keep us warm and comfortable for the trip - this was priceless. The views were beautiful, ample time to stop and walk around, take photos, and have a snack. Fabian even was a great photographer and made sure we had photos of the three of us together. I would highly recommend this team to anyone who wants to get out for an adventure or get off the beaten path. I wish we had time to participate in a longer experience with them!! If I could give them 6 stars I would. Thank you Fabian and Raphaelle

It was a great experience for our two pre-teen children to spend time with Raphaelle and Fabien. The children were outside doing interesting things and they were speaking French while doing it --a great combination. Fabien and Raphaelle are skilled in the outdoors and have a good rapport with the children and I would recommend any expedition big or small with this outfit.

An exceptional way to see the Yukon, and to experience this incredible part of the world! Fabien was a fabulous guide, really flexible and attentive to our interests, professional and very experienced. Raphaelle was also great in getting us ready to travel before hand. Stunning views, great equipment, and an incredible experience spending two days snowmobiling, and a night camping in the wilderness of the Yukon. Highly recommended!

Amazing ski expedition with Fabien in the surroundings of Fish Lake for 3nights/4days. Fabien and Raphaëlle own a family business, they are well organized and eager to share their way of life. They were very flexible and made us feel comfortable.
We had the chance to do multiple things such as winter camping, back-country skiing, ski-joering, ice fishing, northern lights seeing, wildlife watching. We felt like real Yukoners ! 
Fabien shared a lot of knowledge. The food was delicious, everything being home-made, prepared by Raphaëlle ! 
We will be back for sure !

This is one of the best tours I have taken. I had no idea I had signed up for a private tour. I can ride ATVs at home as I own two, but I was looking for something fun to do while I was in the Yukon for a couple days. It was so refreshing not to be part of a long line of tourists on a big tour. Fabian and Raphaelle's attention to detail and service was fantastic. In fact, I'm bummed I forgot the other half of the homemade sandwich
Raphaelle made. There were great views and fun trails to ride all with a guide who obviously knows the area well as he has chosen to make this his home.

Thank you for helping to make our trip to the Yukon so fun and memorable! Our family all agrees that our snowmobiling and dog-sledding adventures with you were by far the highlights of the trip, including the tasty locally-sourced lunch, ice fishing, and learning about the land. We also appreciated the opportunity to move fluidly between French and English throughout the tours. Your love of the Yukon is very clear, and your insights and stories are much appreciated. You made our family feel very welcome.

Our daughter just returned from 4 nights and 5 days with Fabien, Raphaelle and little Rose. It is the second time she has joined them for a summer camp and it is still by far her favourite! She spent her time exploring the Yukon wilderness in this beautiful spot.
Fabien and Raphaelle are such lovely people who offer the most incredible experience for the kids! Highly recommend - all the way.

Our daughter LOVED the overnight camp experience with Call of the Yukon. We believe that being in the great outdoors, with peers, in a safe place away from your everyday life, and learning to live simply is one of the most beautiful gifts we could give to our child. Fabien and Raphael (& baby Rose!) are amazing human beings and living a life worth paying any dollar amount to experience. Don't think about it, send your kid(s) to camp there!

Very nice ride with the dogs and little Rose! We had luck they had a last minute cancellation and we got our ride. Small family business, they are super nice and friendly!

Really enjoyed our snowmobile tour of the Fish Lake area with Fabien. He's obviously very knowledgeable of the area and was happy to answer all our questions. Highly recommended.
