At 4:00pm you will depart from the hotel lobby by shuttle to the Manitoba Museum for a tour of the Arctic & Subarctic Galleries and dinner at the Nonsuch Gallery. If you have extra luggage to store, please speak with the bellman and store it before you head to bed (no fee).

Check out of your room and meet your group in the lobby. The Churchill Wild representative will escort the group to the airport for check-in. Calm Air is a ticketless airline, so you will only need to provide your last name and passport (photo ID for Canadians).

Arrive in Churchill and your Churchill Wild guide — who will stay with you for your time in town — will ready you for the activities today. Today you will have a town and area tour, and time for sightseeing and shopping. You are participating in a kayaking tour this afternoon.

You will enjoy a morning Whale & Prince of Wales Fort tour and a kayaking adventure after lunch!

Check out of your room and meet your group in the lobby (the time will be determined the night before). After breakfast, your guide will prepare you for the 1-hour charter flight to Nanuk Polar Bear Lodge. Be sure to have your camera ready for the landscape and possible wildlife sighting during the flight.

It doesn't hurt to be as ready as possible for a hike when you land. While you will most likely have lunch and settle in first, we want you to be ready in case you head out right away! Keep a hike in mind when packing your carry-on and getting dressed for your charter flight.

Before your first excursion, you will have an orientation to learn about travelling in polar bear country.

There are two excursions per day — morning and afternoon. Our excursions and walks are comfortably paced and geared towards viewing and photo opportunities. Our guides are very knowledgeable about the area, so you'll be doing a lot of learning along the way. Be sure to ask lots of questions!

During your time at the lodge, we will incorporate the following (weather & tide dependent):

It's time to pack up and savor your final lodge breakfast. When it's time to depart, you'll travel back to Churchill, where our guide will meet your group and escort you into town. You'll have the opportunity to enjoy a tour of town and area before making your way to the airport for your flight south.

Due to Calm Air's departure time from Churchill, dinner will be provided prior to the 6:00 PM check-in, with the option of taking your meal to go on the flight.

Once you have arrived back in Winnipeg, please make your own way to the Grand Hotel for check-in. If you stored luggage with the bellman, please don't forget to collect it.

After a restful sleep, pack up — it's time to prepare for your flight home today.
