Watching Polar Bears in Canada
Travel by vehicle adapted to the tundra to watch and photograph Polar Bears
The Tundra vehicle is without doubt one of the best options available in the Arctic for watching, photographing and filming Polar Bears in the wild. From morning till night we are in its environment, in the middle of the Arctic tundra, in an endless winter...
Here you'll wake up with Polar Bears, you will see them playing in the snow, you will be amazed by the struggles between the males and you will know the environment in which they move. In the winter tundra even you will be dazzled by some of the magical northern lights covering the Arctic skies.
But we are not all the time in the same place as the vehicle adapted to the tundra we can roam on the terrain like polar bears. From the platforms placed on the higher part of the "tundra-truck" we can observe nature without glass, feeling the clean air of the tundra in our cheeks. Here, indeed, we will have an excellent view to watch polar bears close and almost touch them in complete safety.
