Best Things To Do In The Northwest Territories - Canada Road Trip Travel Documentary
In this video, we share some of the best things to do in the Northwest Territories, including Yellowknife, Inuvik, and Tuktoyaktuk!
Welcome to the NWT!
With more than one million square kilometres of land area and a population of less than 50,000, the Northwest Territories is about as wild as it gets. It's certainly not an easy area to visit (many places are fly-in, many roads are gravel, and distances are vast) but for those who make the effort, there are incredible things to experience.
With boreal forest, arctic tundra, some of Canada's greatest waterfalls, a vibrant indigenous culture, and boundless wilderness, this is an adventurers paradise!
We explored the NWT from August 16 - September 1st, 2017!

Canada's Road to 150 is a 150-day Canada-wide multi-media road trip celebrating Canada's 150th birthday by exploring the uniqueness of this country provincially and collectively while answering the question; What makes Canada special?
We will drive to and through every driveable province and territory, showcasing Canada's natural beauty and regional attractions while interviewing Canadians of all cultures and backgrounds, including local celebrities, immigrants, refugees, and everyday rural and urban Canadians. Our aim is to dig deep into what makes Canada such an incredibly inspiring country while showing off the best of Canada's tourism to Canadians and to the world.

Camper Van Life Road Trip Pt. 2 Northwest Territories
Across the 60th parallel, Tori, Buck and I are now in the Northwest Territories and headed to Yellowknife, in our campervan from North Campervans. Yellowknife is our jumping off point for a canoe trip down the Mountain River. This road trip has some real delights to take in. First off, we follow part of the Northwest Territories Waterfalls Route where the highway takes us past several breathtaking waterfalls! Each one is part of a Territorial Park and is set up for camping. We cross the mighty Mackenzie River, Canada's longest river, and the second largest river in North America continue seeing some unreal wildlife, particularly when we head down the Frontier Highway through the Mackenzie River Bison Sanctuary. Before too long, we're in Yellowknife, and we take in an amazing view of Great Slave Lake from Pilot's Monument. The following day, we'd meet up with my brother Ted, and his wife Heather, and we'd board a plane to head north to Norman Wells, NTW where a bush plane would drop us off near the Mackenzie Yukon Divide for a two-week canoe trip down the Mountain River.
