- Kenneth V1 contributionTaking the ride to the suspension bridge with tour guide Pat was very informative and entertaining as well. I highly recommend you ask for him.Review of: Yukon Suspension Bridge and Summit TourWritten September 26, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Michelle AFort Worth, United States6 contributionsWhat a great way to tour the Yukon. We had a brand new jeep that rode really well. The guided tour was spot on! The suspension bridge was awesome and a must do.Review of: DIY Yukon TourWritten September 13, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kat MBrisbane, Australia36 contributionsSophia was the guide on the tour I took, and she was woderful - such an asset to the company. Before I did the tour, I didn't understand that seeing the northern lights with your naked eye isn't always possible, so that was a little disappointing, but obviously not the company's fault. We did get to see the lights peeking out between the clouds, and it was great to get a photo taken for a momento. There was ample hot drinks and snacks like chips and cookies available, and it was nice to toast marshmellows on the fire inside a teepee.Review of: Arctic Day: Aurora Viewing Tour | eveningWritten October 16, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sana U4 contributionsWe didn't get to do the tour with Arctic Range and had to cancel due to flight cancellations/rebooking but the staff was able to cancel and refund our reservation. I appreciated that as it was one less thing to stress about!Review of: Arctic Day: Yukon Wildlife & Hot Springs Tour | half dayWritten January 17, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mel_M802Brisbane, Australia226 contributionsMy sister and I signed up for the half day snow shoeing trip, and had a fun couple of hours with Kei, our guide, and the rest of our small tour.
The terrain was easy going, so no need to be super fit to have an enjoyable time on the tour. Kei talked a lot about the wildlife that can be seen out on the trails, and we came across a few dog sled teams. We also had a stop off at Fish Lake for some hot chocolate in the very cold temperatures.
Overall quite enjoyableReview of: Yukon Snowshoeing Adventure | half dayWritten March 4, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I like outdoor adventure and therefore I really had a great time in this tour, experiencing much of the beauty of the Canadian wilderness.Review of: Yukon Escapade: Lakes, Wilderness, and Hidden GemsWritten October 31, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Alejandra A1 contributionWe had a wonderful full-day tour with Sandra
During the morning, we went to Caribou Crossing, and during the night the Aurora Boreal tour. She is totally amazing!!
One of the things I loved about her was how well she knew the city. She took us to the best spots, and we got some of the most amazing pictures I've ever seen!
I highly recommend Nomada Excursions if you're looking for comfort, knowledge, and a friendly guide.Review of: Caribou Crossing Adventure TourWritten October 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- markmd1212San Antonio, TX13 contributionsThis was the first time I had done a tour like this. I enjoyed the fact that it was self paced and I could replay the most interesting parts. Do miss being able to ask questions about specific things of interest to me. However, for the low cost it was definitely worth it.Review of: Miles Canyon: a Smartphone Audio Nature TourWritten July 31, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Travel-1-FactsVancouver, British Columbia, Canada280 contributionsOnce he had picked up all people from various hotels, he started off telling us that “he makes his money from tips, so lets have a great time and get started!”
When we stopped by the lake, he gave each of us a pair of snow shoes. We, like others had never used them before, and I was struggling to get the straps tightened. He didn’t come over to check how I was doing, so I finally asked him for help. If this guy wants a tip, he better give better service than this!
Once we all had snow shoes on, he had a couple of the Asian men in the group, pull gear in a plastic boggan, onto the lake. He was chatting with and taking photos of the Asian couples, and we were wondering when we were going to start snow shoeing. We stood around for some time and finally we asked what direction we were going. He pointed over there, not far, so we finally started walked over to a second lake across the road by ourselves. Eventually he came over and asked how far we wanted to walk. We didn’t know, we just wanted to get going on the tour we had paid for. When we asked what the others were doing, and why they weren’t comeing, he said the others were making snow angels and he was taking pictures of them. REALLY? This is a snowshoeing and ice fishing tour. That’s what we paid to do. Not stand around waiting for him to get us going with our activity.
He said we could walk further, or go back, so we turned around and went back to the first lake, to drill holes in the ice for ice fishing. He drilled three holes in close proximity, with the help of other tourists in our group. We sat on small stools, and used very cheap looking, short plastic rods, about 16 inches long, with a simple plastic spool of fishing line on them. For bait there was a plastic wiggly lure on the hook, or we could change to shrimp. We tried both, and none of the 6 of us fishing even got a nibble.
Our guide made a fire on the ice and cooked some sausages on a skewer for each of us if we wanted one. When we left he said he was going to leave the fire burning and it would burn itself out. We questioned that, asking why he would leave the wood that was only half burned? Why not spread it out so the fire would stop, and use the wood another day? He said he always brings more wood. So, why pollute the air with smoke from a fire that no one is using? He said he would the put it out then, and proceeded to throw some snow on the fire.
We wouldn’t do this activity again.Review of: Yukon Ice Fishing & Snowshoeing Tour | half dayWritten March 5, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
