Snowmobile Tour Yellowknife: Winter Trails with Guide

Glide through pristine forests with a guide and capture unforgettable moments

A one-hour snowmobile tour in Yellowknife with hotel pickup and a live guide in English or Chinese. You ride your own snowmobile across winter trails while the guide leads the way. The tour includes the machine, pickup and drop-off from your hotel, and a 5% GST tax.

The experience

One hour on a snowmobile covers the distance and the terrain that matters here. You start from your hotel or bed-and-breakfast, get picked up and driven to the trail, then ride through the winter landscape with a guide who knows the routes and stays with your group. The snowmobile itself is included, so you show up and ride. The guide speaks English or Chinese and handles the navigation while you focus on the trail ahead.

Dress warmly according to the weather: winter clothing is not provided, so bring layers that work for the cold. You need at least a moderate level of physical fitness to ride, and you must be 18 or older. The tour ends with a return to your hotel or accommodation, so the whole outing, including travel time, fits into a morning or afternoon block.
