Tundra Tours - What to Expect

The Day Tour is offered during our summer season beginning May 15th  through September 15, 2024. The tour starts daily at 10:00am ending at approximately at 2:30pm. During the tour, photo opportunities will be abundant, make sure your camera is charged and ready to go.

The guide will walk you through the tundra to the ancient remains of the sod huts, stopping at iconic sites such as the whalebone arches and the historically registered whaling post. During the tour through the Iñupiat Heritage Center, your guide will share insights on the migration patterns, neighboring villages, subsistence living, festivals, and celebrations. In the traditional room, you can catch a glimpse of Iñupiat artists honing their skills while making tools, crafting native art, or working on their Umiaqs for whaling season.

We are proud to be Iñupiaq owned & operated.
