Make your next trip a memorabilia with polar bears in Manitoba


Zoo is definitely the right place for animal watching but seeing animals in their own natural habitat is beyond comparison. If you wish to see the polar bears in their natural environment, just head to Churchill, Manitoba. Nowhere can you see polar bears so up-close and personal as you can here.

Between October and November, Hudson Bay freezes and this town is overrun with polar bears as they travel their migration path. You can take a tundra buggy for a quick day trip. A number of tour operators are based in Churchill and Winnipeg and operate polar bear tours from mid-October to early autumn. The Victor Emanuel Nature tour costs approximately $3,500 per person.

During your stay, you can enjoy all the natural wonders that have made Churchill a must-see for any adventure traveler. For longer exposure, there are tundra lodges that provide all day exposure to the bears in their native environment. Don�t forget to pack warm clothes including waterproof boots.

Getting There:

Churchill, Manitoba is one of the remotest communities on the Hudson Bay and it is difficult to drive there. There are about 50 miles of local roads but the nearest land access is a 300-mile train ride on Muskeg Express.

Getting Around:

The Eskimo Museum is well worth a visit, as is the polar bear jail. Here bears that wander into town are isolated before being moved back into the wild.

I don�t think you�ll ever want to miss the opportunity to take some amazing photographs and live an experience you�ll remember for a lifetime. So, plan your next trip to Churchill, Manitoba and see the polar bears in their natural environment. This will surely be a memorabilia!
