    It was an amazing experience. Our northern lights dream came true because of them! The day of our tour even though it was supposed to be clear skies, at night it became very cloudy and we could not see anything. But they were gracious enough to let us come the day after and we saw the most amazing aurora 🥺 If they wouldn’t have let us come that day, my parents who came all the way from India to see this would have been so disappointed. I am very grateful to them for this. Apart from that the cabin is pretty easy to drive to (even with the snow). It’s clean and very cozy inside with lots of snacks and the snacks & the most amazing hot chocolate ever 😍 He also took photos of us (attached) with his professional camera as it’s very difficult to get the photos unless you have experience with photography. Highly recommend this tour if you in Fairbanks.

    The cabin/house is clean & was comfortable inside. Bathroom is clean. David was informative when the northern lights were ready to show. He took great pictures as well. We only saw th e northern lights for a few times due to the cloudy conditions but overall I would recommend coming back.

    David was the best host! He explained what to look for on the fish eye cam and diligently checked outside for the northern lights. He took great photos of my friend and I. The lights weren’t strong but he still managed to get some great shots! The cabin was well maintained with a variety of snacks and an impressive espresso machine!! Mahalo for a wonderful first time experience ❤️

    We had an amazing experience. The cabin was wonderful and David is amazing!!! Very knowledgeable about the aurora and great photographer. He took multiple pics of us and the aurora and shared them all with us before we left!!! Directions to the cabin were very precise. We had a terrific evening and a beautiful 40th anniversary at the cabin!!! And Lady Aurora put on a stunning show despite 83% cloud cover at the start of the evening.

    This tour is good value for your money. David, the person in charge, was hardworking, helpful, knowledgeable about the northern lights, and good with his camera. The setup is simple, clean, and as promised with free snacks. The coffee machine could work better.

    Everything unfolded as advertised with this company. They were extremely responsive to questions. We were picked up at our hotel on time. The cabin where we went to await the possible sighting of the Northern Lights was very comfortable and accommodating. Our hosts were very gracious and helpful. Although Mother Nature didn’t cooperate we were pleased with the experience. If we decide to venture to Fairbanks in the future to see the Northern Lights we won’t hesitate in enlisting this company again to help us.
