Kayak alongside beluga whales, or watch polar bears close up in Churchill. Enjoy the bright lights of Winnipeg, or the Northern Lights of winter. Go dog sledding, or laze on a magnificent beach. Visit the Canadian Shield or endless prairies.

By Canadian standards, Manitoba isn’t that large. At a mere quarter of a million square miles it’s only…let’s see…about twice the size of Germany. In Manitoba the experiences come thick and fast and can include sitting outside in the dead of night watching that spectacular natural light show known as the Aurora Borealis, or clinging tightly onto a sledge whilst its engine – a team of howling huskies – rev themselves up for a headlong plunge across the white tundra.
