I contacted North Star early March trying to booked 3 night tours and 1 day tour with North Star during the Easter weekend. It took me a few tries before I get through to speak with Joe on the phone, but email response on confirmation after that was quick. During the tours everything worked out fine and it was only...

We had such a great time in Yellowknife thanks to Joe. He really went out of his way to make our trip great - he took us sledding for free on our last day, and even drove to airport to give us a USB filled with photos from our Aurora tours. He also 'chases' the aurora in the sense that... More

Our tour with Joe was unforgettable. Its rare to see someone as passionate about what he does as Joe. He was just as excited about seeing the aurora as we were, even though he grew up with it. Our first night, other tour companies canceled their tour due to cloudy skies. Joe still went out with his group. He found... More

This one was of the best trips of my entire life and I would love to do it again. The owner, Joe, was warm, friendly and possessed a great deal of knowledge when touring Yellowknife. I was absolutely shocked at how well everything was organized and how he was able to make this trip such a memorable experience. I highly... More

if you wanna enjoy your trip, you must not use this agency. guide is unprofessional and irresponsible. they dont know how to provide proper service and have no intention to make tourists happy. they are ok as long as they can get money from you.

Experience, nice and patient tour guide. Joe has excellent aurora hurting experience. While the third day for aurora viewing, he catch the best moment and place for aurora viewing. Although there is only an hour, we saw a wonderful scene and took a most wonderful photo. 經驗豐富,漂亮的病人導遊。喬具有良好的極光傷害的經驗。雖然極光觀看的第三天,他趕上最好的時刻和地點極光觀看。雖然只有一個小時,我們看到了精彩的一幕,拍了最精彩的照片。

North Star Adventures helped make our dream vacation to Yellowknife a trip of a lifetime. Joe's enthusiasm for the "Aurora" (northern lights) is infectious. We kept going back for additional Aurora hunting nights. I enjoyed listening to Murray, the bus driver's stories while driving to the Aurora sites. I suggest you sit at the front of the van and ask... More

It is easy to understand why North Star Adventures is the number 1 tour company in Yellowknife according to this very website. Based on the reviews I found here I decided to give it a go when I went to YK myself. Joe is a top notch guy who loves what he does and does his best to make your... More
