About Us

Our STory

Yukon Wide Adventures started with a simple idea: share the Yukon the way locals experience it, not the way a brochure describes it. What began as small guided river trips has grown into a year-round outfit offering rivers, aurora viewing, dog sledding, and more — but the goal hasn't changed. We want every guest to leave with a real sense of this place: wild, remote, and genuinely unforgettable.

Today, our team combines decades of collective experience on Yukon rivers, trails, and winter landscapes. Whatever the season, whatever the adventure, we're out there with you — not just pointing the way.

Meet The Crew

Aaron

Aaron Peck grew up paddling rivers across Canada and racing 1,000 miles through Alaska in the Iditarod. He and his wife Eva now raise their four kids in the Yukon, exploring the outdoors by canoe, dog team, or anything that doesn’t need charging.

Liam

Liam grew up paddling near Vancouver Island but fell for Yukon rivers. A seasoned guide who speaks English and French, he’s done it all --except bear wrestling (they won’t sign the waiver). His skills and love for adventure make every trip memorable.

Olek

Olek, a French-speaking outdoorsman of Ukrainian descent, brings bush smarts and trail tricks to every trip. With a knack for turning wilderness into adventure, he makes every journey feel like a story worth retelling, sometimes in two languages.

Craig

Craig is an experienced globetrotter. Formerly a scuba diving guide, he later found a deep connection with the wilderness and transitioned into canoe guiding — leading trips through wild lakes and rivers, sharing his passion for nature and adventure.

Why Choose us

At Yukon Wide Adventures, we believe the best Yukon experiences are about more than simply seeing the wilderness — they’re about becoming part of its story.

Led By Aaron Peck

A 10-time Iditarod musher with a lifetime of sled dog and wilderness experience, our adventures are shaped by a genuine love of the outdoors — from travelling behind a team of sled dogs to paddling the Yukon’s remote rivers and waterways. For Aaron, paddling has always been one of the most rewarding ways to experience the North: moving at the pace of the river, exploring places few people ever reach, and becoming immersed in the landscape.

What Makes Us stand out

We care deeply about the people who travel with us, the land we travel through, and the impact we leave behind. We love sharing the stories of the Yukon — its rivers, mountains, wildlife, sled dogs, history and people — and helping our guests develop their own connection to this remarkable place.


Whether you are paddling a remote river, standing behind a team of sled dogs, watching the northern lights or simply experiencing the silence of the Yukon wilderness, our goal is the same: to help you accomplish something special and return home with a story you will never forget.
