We know the best time to plan your trip to witness these Lords of the Arctic - they congregate here for only a few weeks each year as they wait for the ice to form on Hudson Bay. Once the ice is stable enough, the bears leave and spend the winter hunting seals and the viewing season is over until next year.

You’ll have a safe front row seat to witness these massive Arctic predators from high atop your Tundra Buggy. Photographing white on white can be tricky and our knowledgeable Insiders will have lots of tips to help you bring home the perfect shot.

Polar Bears of Churchill

When you’re in the polar bear capital of the world, there are just two rules: always have your camera ready, and never turn your back on a bear. The Inuit culture calls polar bears ‘Nanuks’ meaning “animal worthy of great respect”. As you watch these thousand-pound predators patrol their habitat, you’ll gain enormous respect for them too.
