Julian is an expert in his field. Again it was a very cloudy night but he managed to find clear skies and we saw Aurora. He took photos for everyone and they were sent to us immediately after the tour. I will be recommending this tour to all our friends and family.

The weather Gods were against us from the start as it was raining heavily in Yellowknife and very thick cloud. We had very little chance on a night like tonight, however, Julian did not stop for 6hrs trying to find clear skies, so we could experience Aurora, and he succeeded in doing so. He took photos of the group and I’ve already received them less than an hour after returning from tour. He is a real expert in his field.

We joined the 8/31 tour and I felt very lucky that we picked this tour because I think we were one of the only two tours (based on my extensive research on social media for 8/31 night at Yellowknife) which were able to see the aurora all thanks to Julian's professionalism. I have been to Lapland, Tromso, and Yellowknife twice for aurora hunting, and Julian is by far the most "never-give-up" tour guide and he really tried his best. Due to the heavy cloud conditions, Julian stopped at 3 spots prior to driving to the 4th spot where we had the major success. At the 3rd spot, it was already passed 1am and we did see some weak aurora, a typical tour guide would call it a day and send us home; however, Julian knew the KP was high that night and decided to drive further west to a beach (like 1 hour +) to avoid the clouds and because of his hard work, we were rewarded with some pretty strong dancing green + light purple aurora!!! We did not get back to downtown Yellowknife until 5am and what also surprised me is that he sent out the pics at 6am! This is the first time I ever encountered such a responsible aurora chasing tour guide. I went on other decent light-chasing tours at various/same destinations which charge 2-4 times more, and yet Julian has the strongest light-chasing mentality.

The tour was fantastic, and Julian was an incredible guide. He took us to the perfect spots to enjoy the aurora, gave us plenty of time to soak in the experience, and even provided cookies and drinks. And he sent beautiful photos just 30 minutes after the tour ended! Thanks again!

Julian is awesome - we booked this tour two nights in a row to make sure we had the best experience. The first night we were unlucky with weather (lots of rain), but Julian chased the lights all night and we managed to still see it. The second night was fully clear and we managed to get a full night worth of lights.
