DAY 3: SIGNATURE YUKON ADVENTURE & FINAL NIGHT SIGHTSEEING

A flexible seasonal experience is offered depending on time of year and conditions.

Alternative options may include hands-on gold panning or a Fall Colours tour of the Southern Lakes near Carcross, depending on timing and availability. The afternoon is free to relax or explore Whitehorse, followed by a final evening at the Aurora Lounge for one last northern lights viewing experience.
