Great White Bear Tundra Lodge

Operated by the Great White Bear Tours company, this tundra lodge on wheels is an incredible way to spend more time up close and personal with Churchill’s polar bears. Each guest has a private cabin with a sleeping berth, while viewing platforms allow you to scope out an entirely different vantage point. Even better?
