After being picked up, sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery as you are transported the 60 miles east to the Chena Hot Springs Resort. Keep an eye out for wildlife and you may even spot a fox, beaver or moose along the way.

After arriving at the resort, start your day off with a tour of the Aurora Ice Museum, constructed out of over 1,000 tons of ice and snow. Marvel at ice sculptures by world-renowned carvers. If you're feeling adventurous, sample an Appletini in a hand-carved ice glass (not included in price and photo ID required).

Soak in the pool of the Hot Springs, explore the many trails around the resort or take a tour of the greenhouse and geothermal energy plant.

Lunch at the excellent restaurant is not to be missed where you can enjoy some Alaskan seafood or vegetables grown in the local greenhouse (optional and not included in price).

Find some unique locally made Alaskan gifts in the Gift Shop.

    Our driver/guide was great! On the drive, we saw moose and heard some great bear stories. The Ice Museum was quirky, and the food at the restaurant was much better than expected. Get some salad. Trust me. All in all, a great way to start our Alaskan vacation!

  • Great tour with friendly guide

    Jean was a very informative and interesting driver/guide. She was continually on the lookout for any wildlife and was willing to backtrack if she saw any for us to view. The ice museum was interesting and we enjoyed the $21 apple cider Martini- 1 part vodka/ 2 parts Apple cider - in an ice glass. Unfortunately we did not get to see a professional carver at work. The hot springs were hot! Even in the rain!! We enjoyed all aspects of this tour and would recommend it to others who are looking for a similar experience.
