Extend Your Stay in North America
Set at a more leisurely pace, these holidays are perfect to add to the end of your journey, but can also be arranged as an independent adventure. You’ll spy grizzlies foraging, watch the northern lights ripple overhead or follow the paw prints of polar bears, all the while staying in remote wilderness lodges, many only reachable by float plane. It’s time to let the real adventure begin.

Great Bear Experience
Dawn wake-up calls will have you scrambling out of your bed in heart-thumping anticipation as the search for grizzlies becomes part of your morning routine. Arriving by seaplane, spend three nights in the wilds of Great Bear Lodge that bears, deer, cougars, pine martens, bald eagles and river otters call home.
