The Yukon Traveller Quiz

You know what you like. We know the Yukon. Let’s work together.

You seem to be…

Relaxed Traveller

You enjoy venturing out in nature, but your dream trip to the Yukon doesn’t stray too far from at least a few modern comforts. Your preference is to have the option to unwind and treat yourself rather than tackling gruelling hikes, but that doesn’t mean you want to miss out on iconic Yukon activities like the northern lights or midnight sun. Arts & culture are a focus and you seek out guided tours so you can learn about the territory’s land and heritage.

Curious Explorer

Your dream trip to the Yukon combines exploration of the unknown with down-to-earth comforts. Seeing the iconic landscape by any means possible is how you like to travel; car, hiking, dog sledding, horseback riding, mountain biking, you’ll do it all. Plus, you’re not shy to ask locals for recommendations. And when it comes to resting your weary feet, the unique lodgings on offer pique your interest.

Extreme Adventurer

You’re all about going off the beaten track and answering the call of the wild with a howl of your own. As a lover of the outdoors, you’ve planned your adventures ahead of time but are always looking to uncover the lesser known and one-of-a-kind activities that can be found by speaking to the locals. Breaking a sweat is how you roll, ride, ski or sled and at the end of a high octane day, you’re happy with a simple tent-pad in the heart of nature.

The Yukon's premier boat tour operator.

Experience the Yukon like never before, this tour departs only 5 minutes from Downtown Whitehorse and will bring you deep into the Yukon Wilderness via the historic Yukon River. 

As we start our adventure in the beautiful Schwatka lake we will see the gorgeous views of Grey Mountain as well as Mount McIntyre before we start our adventure up and through the breath taking Miles Canyon. Once through the rushing waters of the canyon, we will push full steam ahead, cruising through the green waters of the Yukon River. With astonishing views throughout, we will stop for any wildlife we may see and experience it all from the comfort of our vessel! 

Looking for a fun activity that is close to Downtown Whitehorse? We have the solution for you! 

The Yukon River is a historic waterway and was the area’s key transportation channel. If you love nature, wildlife or history, the Yukon River is a must. The clear-green river is very scenic and offers great photo opportunities, and boasts superb wildlife and scenery. A bonus: learning all about the waterway's Indigenous Heritage and fabled prospecting past is included in our tour!
