It was beautiful and cold! Chris was a great team leader. Excellent pictures and explanation of the northern lights!

Even though it was not meant to be for us to see the lights - our guide Chris - made it all worth while with great pictures and a picnic stop with chairs, hot soup and hot drinks. What a lovely experience!

The guide was extremely knowledgeable and kind. He took us a long way - extra ways- to try make us see the lights. Sky was on and off covered and the moon was full … so we could see some lights on the pictures taken of us … but none with the naked eye. It is clearly not up to them but to Mother Nature… regardless the places and the landscape was breathtaking to say the least. Nice group and had fun anyway!

Dana and trainee Tim were professional. Stephen was helpful ensuring I got the right fit for the gear rental (recommended for those who don't normally deal with snow/cold weather). We ultimately did not see the lights, but I still captured some great night sky shots. The tour guides were informative, accommodating, and tried their hardest to find the best locations. My lesson learned is not to book a day trip in Anchorage because mother nature can be unpredictable. I look forward to booking this trip again with more time!

Unfortunately due to cloudy, overcast and rainy weather the tour was initially rescheduled to the next day and then eventually cancelled.
