“Very complete tour. Delivered on its itinerary. Birding from early morning to evening, with options to go or not to go. Very active tour, covered a lot of territory, many birding habitats and Churchill was an great experience. Hundreds of beluga whales including babies, 4 polar bears including a mother an cub. Accommodations all good. Both guides knowledgeable and excellent.... always searching to find that final bird or animal sighting.”

“By combining a birding portion in southern Manitoba with the beluga/polar bear portion, it made the ideal tour for me.”

“This tour offered lots of birds and mammals and scenery in Manitoba. The pace was a bit hectic however. Lots of miles in the van. Polar bears and belugas amazing.”

“This was a very interesting trip and the guide Ken De Smet was a wonderful birder taking us to many areas. We explored much of the province of Manitoba and ended up in Churchill to see Polar Bears and Beluga Whales. The days were a bit too long, clients need at least an hour break before the dinner to relax and decompress.”

“I joined this tour for the whales and polar bear portion, my wife is the birder and I'm not. However, our leader was very enthusiastic about birds, belugas and bears, he was determined to leave no bird behind unseen! He was a very personable, conscientious leader, with boundless enthusiasm from 6:00 AM to 11:00PM and always went an extra mile. In Churchill we had a fantastic experience with the Polar bears and belugas, lots of time on the water watching both species and lots of opportunity to get as close as the animals were comfortable with our presence. Wonderful phot opportunities.”
