Peel Wilderness Aviation - Dawson City, Yukon

Crystal C.

Amazing flight and amazing staff. My very competent pilot was super welcoming. She flew us over the gold mines, dredge 4, tombstone, and the paddle wheel graveyard. She was a wealth of knowledge and continuously shared the most interesting history of the areas we flew over. Unfortunately I drank too much tea before the flight and was very uncomfortable the last 10 minutes of the journey. Thank you Peels I will definitely highly recommend you to others. Top drawer operation worth every penny.

We did the 90 minute tour of Tombstone mountains. I highly recommend this one as 90 minutes provides enough time. The 45 minute one would not be long enough IMO. Great pilot and spectacular tour. We flew low through the valleys so were able to see things close up

This is such an amazing operation - husband and wife team, immaculate C185 on floats, super accommodating and experienced folks. Colin took us for a quick last-minute spin up the Yukon River for some sightseeing and we were very impressed. Anyone looking for adventure, or bush plane services in and around Dawson, or just wanting to go sightseeing would be wise to give em a call!!

On a whim and before I could chicken out, my husband and I booked a 45-minute goldfield tour when we had a day in Dawson City with nothing scheduled. Our amazing pilot, Colin, was very reassuring and professional. His local knowledge only added to the overall experience and it ultimately ended up being a highlight of our road trip to the Yukon. I learned a lot about tiny aircraft. If my husband had been allowed to have his head out the window, he'd have done so for the whole flight! Lots of great photos and an indelible memory. Thanks, Colin!

Die Zeit vergeht viel zu schnell - aber wir denken immer noch gerne an unseren Rundflug über den Tombstone Nationalpark zurück. Wir hatten Glück und Colin hat einen Tag vor unserem Flug auf sein Wasserflugzeug umgerüstet, sodass wir auf einem wunderschönen See zwischenlanden konnten. Dort haben wir die wundervolle Natur und die absolute Ruhe genossen - unserer Meinung nach ein unverzichtbares Erlebnis!
Der Rundflug mit Peel Wilderness war ein absolutes Highlight auf unserer Tour durch den Yukon und Alaska und sollte unbedingt gemacht werden, wenn man in Dawson ein bisschen Zeit erübrigen kann. Colin war ein sehr angenehmer Pilot und man merkt, dass ihm nicht nur das Fliegen am Herzen liegt, sondern vor allem auch die Gegend, in der er sich richtig gut auskennt und sein Wissen darüber gerne weiter gibt.
Danke Colin für dieses fantastische Erlebnis!!

I did a scenic tour of the Ogilvie mountains, returning above Dawson with Peel Wilderness Adventures. The spring views, added to the friendliness of the staff, made for a splendid experience. Collin, the owner, drove us to and from the airport, while filling us in on inside information about the area. Jake, our pilot, was super easy going and professional. I love that the owners were guides in the area before taking on this business. You can tell they have spent much time both on the land and up in the air.

Thank you for flying us to Mayo on such short notice. We also really appreciate your trust that we would pay for the flight after my credit cards were frozen. It was a great flight. Thank you to our pilot (Colin's dad) for a great flight and all the information. We hope to use your services again to paddle in the Peel area. Best wishes John and Chris

What a truly incredible experience!

Thank you Jack for such a lovely flight over Dawson City and Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in traditional territory. It was great to see all the folks gathering at Moosehide for this 2024 celebrations, and the incredible impact gold mining has had on the land.

Our one thought for feedback - the dock while loading the plane was unstable and a little scary for my mom, who is not as spry as she once was and unfamiliar to being on the water. I believe a little warning would have gone a long way, although she was very proud of herself for staying on her feet!

Mähsi cho!
