What are the focal points of going on an Arctic safari?

First of all, it’s an excellent opportunity to view and photograph the whole Arctic wildlife, including narwhal, polar bears and seals. It’s also highly likely, if the weather allows it, to visit the Bylot Island Migratory Bird Sanctuary, home to more than 200,000 birds.

Another main attraction of the Arctic safari is the possibility of seeing traditional Inuit tend rings while also learning about their culture and visiting ancient Thule sites.

Of course, we can’t forget about the journey to the floe edge by snowmobile and traditional qamutik.

But probably the most enchanting thing about this whole Arctic trip experience is being able to vent all of the stress you’ve built up in the vast, tranquil expanses of the Arctic wilderness.

Arctic Kingdom presents its narwhal & polar bear floe edge safari

This will basically be a chance to encounter the remarkable narwhal, also known as the unicorn of the sea, and indulge in a full blown Arctic adventure filled with magnificent landscapes and wildlife experiences that will leave you as breathless as the crisp Arctic air.

For five nights, camped out in the ice, amongst the almost mythical mountains and ice floes of Eclipse Sound, you’ll go on a self discovery journey surrounded by towering granite cliffs and ancient Inuit hunting grounds.

From the small Inuit community of Pond Inlet your journey takes you deep into the Arctic wilderness, travelling via Inuit sled to your camp close on the edge of the ice floes. Here you will spend your days basking in the glory of the captivating setting, as you search out polar bears, narwhals, belugas, bowheads and a myriad of sea birds.

During the whole narwhal and polar bear adventure you’ll be accompanied by Inuit guides who will connect you to this remarkable safari adventure that presents you with the unique Arctic wildlife, dazzling icebergs and the surreal experience of almost 24-hour daylight, as you journey into a land that can trace its ancestry back to the Icelandic sagas of old.

This exhilarating Narwhal and Polar bear tour will take you to the northern reaches of Nunavut when the sea ice is melting and marine mammals along with other Arctic wildlife can be found travelling north along the floe edge where food is concentrated.

You’ll be amazed to be able to sit so close to pods of Narwhal that will just sit around resting only meters from the edge while an incredible variety of sea birds, including Thick-billed murres, kittiwakes, guillemots, and Ivory gulls, fly overhead. Polar bears and seals may also be spotted at times swimming or resting on ice packs during 24 hours of sunlight. If you are lucky, you may also observe Bowhead and Beluga whales that also frequent the area.
