Aurora Pod Aurora Pod, a heated glass structure, offers exclusive comfort while viewing nature of the northern climes. While viewing the aurora borealis isn’t guaranteed, Churchill, Manitoba is one of the best places on Earth to see it (while also having the distinction of being the Polar Bear Capital of the World). When the stunning natural phenomenon is on display, Aurora Pod allows guests a 360-degree view of the night sky in optimal environment. Positioned outside of town away from the glow of artificial light, the geometrically constructed Aurora Pod features a glass top and sides with reclining theater-style seating. “It’s like being inside a toasty greenhouse in the Arctic,” said Ben Bressler, founder and president of Nat Hab. “It’s perfect for unobstructed viewing while staying cozy and warm.” This is the first year for the Aurora Pod that was introduced earlier in 2015 on the company’s Northern Lights & Arctic Cultures (http://www.nathab.com/ While the Aurora Pod is a special addition on select trips, the focal point is still the polar bears, which guests view on multiple excursions via Nat Hab’s custom-built Polar Rovers. Designed to travel over the tundra, these giant vehicles have heated interiors, large picture windows and an outdoor viewing platform with steel mesh flooring, allowing for encounters with polar bears just inches away. And while these vehicles can accommodate 32 passengers, Nat Hab trips are limited to just 16, so every guest has a window seat and room to spread out. In Nat Hab’s custom Polar Rover vehicles adventurers can approach at extremely close range without disturbing the bears, offering a chance for an incredibly moving wildlife experience. From heated confines – or standing on the outdoor platform – guests may see mothers with cubs, young males play-fighting, or a huge, solitary male ambling over the tundra. The following 2015 polar bear departures will include access to the Aurora Pod: 2015 Classic Polar Bear Adventure(http://www.nathab.com/ The Classic Polar Bear Adventure (http://www.nathab.com/ Trip rates include all transportation and activities as described in the itinerary (http://www.nathab.com/ For information on all of Nat Hab’s trips, descriptive itineraries, date availability and reservations, call 800.543.8917 or visit www.nathab.com/ About Natural Habitat Adventures Natural Habitat Adventures is a world leader in responsible adventure travel and nature-based ecotourism.
