Aurora Viewing Tour


The Aurora Borealis, famously known as the Northern Lights, have long captured the imagination of explorers, writers, and visitors to the far northern latitudes near the arctic circle. Caused by the interaction of solar radiation with the Earths ozone layer, the lights shimmer and radiate a pale green majesty rarely visible outside the cool, dry nights of a northern winter. Now its your turn to explore these phenomena for yourself. Your Aurora tour starts at 9:00 p.m. with a pick-up in the Fairbanks-area BB, Vacation Rental, or Hotel. After meeting your guide and the rest of your group, you will head out of town for a short drive away from the light pollution of Fairbanks and out to the quiet, dry calm of a late fall or winter evening. Along the way, your guide may share insider knowledge of Fairbanks history, Alaskan trivia, and animals that call the region home.  Once you arrive at your destination, you may spend several hours waiting to view the beauty of the evening sky. Although hard to predict and not always visible, your guide will help position you for the best opportunities to see this once in a lifetime view. He or she will also provide your choice of hot beverage such as hot cocoa, tea, or coffee to keep you warm during cool evening temperatures. Aurora portraits are also included for each guest when the display in the sky allows. After approximately three hours enjoying a breathtaking canvas of bright stars and evening colors, your guide will return you to Fairbanks for an early morning drop off back at your hotel or rental before 3:00 a.m. within a normal nights activity. Guests should note that if the Aurora comes out later that the tour will most likely go a little longer and your return times might vary depending on the conditions. As well as the distance to find clear conditions can add to the length of our night out.Additional InformationConfirmation will be received at time of bookingCheck your cell phone provider for service in Alaska.
