Imagine waking up to polar bears right outside your window. This six-day journey takes you deep into the Churchill Wildlife Management Area, where the Tundra Buggy® Lodge serves as your home base in the heart of bear country. From the comfort of this remote lodge, you’ll spend your days exploring the subarctic landscape in custom-built Tundra Buggies and your evenings listening to expert talks, enjoying locally inspired meals, and, if conditions allow, watching for Northern Lights from the rooftop observation deck. Whether it’s your first glimpse of a polar bear or a quiet moment over morning coffee as wildlife moves outside, this is a rare chance to live within the landscape, not just visit it.
