Yellowknife, Northwest Territories

Think outside the box of typical honeymoon destinations and travel to the Northwest Territories for a memorable vacation. For extraordinary adventures, like really viewing the northern lights, Yellowknife, the capital, is the best place to start.

The city of Yellowknife is nestled in the great Northwest Territories wilderness. Witness the magic of the Northern Lights, angle for unbelievably big fish or explore stunningly rugged mountains in highlight activities you can do here. Book a tour, gear up, and get ready for the show of a lifetime because your chances of seeing the northern lights are greatest from mid-November to early April. Don't worry about packing your own gear; most tours offer arctic-quality snow equipment rentals. In Yellowknife, there are many activities to keep you occupied during the day. Dog sledding is a must-do activity, and ice fishing is both figuratively and literally a really cool experience.
