Unlock the Charm of Whitehorse - Guided Tours for Every Taste
Hey there, adventure seekers! Are you ready to explore the hidden gems of Whitehorse? Look no further than Foxiepass, your friendly neighborhood tour guides. We're here to show you the best this amazing city has to offer, and trust me, you're in for a treat!
Yukon Wildlife Preserve: Where the Wild Things Are
First stop on our whirlwind tour is the Yukon Wildlife Preserve. Picture this: you're standing just a few feet away from a majestic moose, its antlers reaching towards the sky. Or how about coming face-to-face with a curious lynx? At this 350-acre preserve, you'll get up close and personal with Yukon's incredible wildlife. Our guides know all the best spots for animal watching, and they'll share fascinating tidbits about each species. Did you know that caribou can run up to 50 mph? Neither did I until I joined one of these tours!
S.S. Klondike: All Aboard for History
Next up, we're taking a trip back in time to the S.S. Klondike. This restored sternwheeler is a floating piece of Yukon history. As you walk the decks, you can almost hear the shouts of gold rush prospectors and smell the wood smoke from the boiler. Our guide, Old Joe (don't worry, he's not actually that old), tells the best stories about the ship's glory days. His tale about the time a bear wandered onboard mid-journey had us all in stitches!
Miles Canyon: Nature's Masterpiece
Hold onto your hats, folks, because Miles Canyon is going to blow you away. The turquoise waters cutting through the basaltic cliffs create a scene so beautiful, you'll think you've stepped into a painting. Our guided hike along the canyon rim offers breathtaking views and plenty of photo ops. Just remember to watch your step – I once got so distracted by the view, I nearly took an unexpected swim!
Takhini Hot Springs: Soak Your Cares Away
After all that hiking, you'll be ready for a good soak. The Takhini Hot Springs are the perfect place to relax and unwind. As you sink into the warm, mineral-rich waters, you might spot a bald eagle soaring overhead or hear the distant howl of a wolf. It's like nature's own spa day! Pro tip: in winter, try the hair freezing contest. Trust me, the photos are hilarious and make for great social media posts.
Northern Lights: Nature's Light Show
Last but certainly not least, we can't forget about the aurora borealis. Whitehorse is one of the best places in the world to see this spectacular phenomenon. Our nighttime aurora tours take you away from the city lights to the perfect viewing spots. Watching the green and purple lights dance across the sky is truly a bucket-list experience. I still get goosebumps every time I see them, even after all these years of guiding!
