What to Expect on a Camping Adventure

We plan our base camp tours around wildlife migrations and activities. Our base camp trips offer unparalleled opportunities for wildlife photographers and naturalists to spend time with the arctic's fascinating animals.

 

Your Arctic Wild guide will set up a comfortable camp with abundant, good food and drink and lead daily hiking trips, offer suggestions and insight, or just let you relax in peace.  Alaska bird watching can't be beat with seabirds and terrestrial birds (depending on location) including Asian migrants rarely seen in North America.
