Accommodation in Canada: Tundra Lodge [Mid]
-
Fact!:
Early booking is strongly recommended for the Tundra Lodge trips due to their huge popularity and the limited availability of space.
Tundra Lodge is unique - a remarkable mobile hotel that is placed in an area of high bear density at the beginning of the Polar Bear season. It has 32 rooms (although group sizes are limited to a maximum of 28) and each room is a single compartment. There are shared shower and toilet facilities as well as a lounge and dining area from where you can observe bear activity while relaxing in Tundra Lodge's modest surroundings. During your time spent on the tundra you will have unparalleled opportunities for polar bear viewing. Inquisitive bears often approach the lodge which is equipped with rows of windows and observation decks to accommodate your own curiosity. This unique location, combined with the opportunity for half-day excursions around the tundra in an on-site tundra vehicle, affords some of the best possible wildlife experiences in the Churchill area.
Tundra Vehicles
All of our Polar Bear trips go out on the tundra in specially designed tundra vehicles with heaters and toilet facilities on board. Lunch and refreshments are provided on board too, to maximise your bear-viewing day. As well as bears you may also see Arctic fox, caribou, snowy owls and ptarmigan. With a maximum group size of 15, in a vehicle that can accommodate up to double this number, you will have ample room for viewing and photographing the bears.
