The one-day trips include a non-stop flight on a private charter Boeing 737 and a guided tour aboard a Tundra Buggy to view the polar bears near Hudson Bay.
Breakfast will be served on the flight, lunch during the actual tour, and dinner in Churchill before returning. There will also be a guest artist and scientist on the tour, and souvenirs available to purchase at the end.
“Many of our guests are initially surprised to learn that travel to see the polar bears in a single day is possible,” Cate Collins, Lead Scientist for Gold Star Canadian Tours, said in a release. “Without question a polar bear expedition is the perfect fit for many who want to experience the region.”
Thousands of polar bears migrate to Churchill, Manitoba between July and November every year, giving it the title of “polar bear capital of the world.”

- Edmonton – October 20
- Calgary – October 26
- Toronto – November 9

Each trip costs $2,499, plus tax, per seat, and includes all fees and gratuities. For more information and to book a tour, visit goldstarcanada.com.
