    Cole and David were very enthusiastic and professional. Even though it was cloudy, they managed to find the Northern Lights! They took great care of us throughout the trip. Highly recommended!

    The experience was amazing. The guide Cole and David (Photographer & guide) calibrated expectations but tried their best for us to see the Northern lights. Finally on our last stop we were able to see them along w/a clear view of the stars which was awe-inspiring & a blessing. Recommend this tour!!

  • Caught the lights on a low KP day

    Our experience with this tour group and guide was excellent. We went out on a low-forecast night, yet we were still able to catch the aurora at several locations thanks to the guide’s experience and knowledge of where to go. He had his own camera and took great photos for us, so there was no need to lug around a large DSLR or medium-format camera with a tripod. A good smartphone with a time-lapse function is highly recommended to capture the aurora dancing in the sky. Just remember to bring a selfie stick with a built-in tripod to keep your phone steady.

  • Amazing experience!

  • Wonderful aurora

    It's lucky enough to see the aurora every night during my four-day stay in Fairbanks. On two of those nights, I joined an aurora-chasing tour and got to see even more spectacular displays. The chase took about two hours, and our guide, who has 18 years of experience, led us wonderfully.

  • Highly Recommend - Reasonable Price

    It was a very satisfying tour, and I was able to see a truly beautiful aurora. I highly recommend experiencing the aurora through this travel packages. * For an unexperienced beginner traveler, it is almost impossible to successfully chashing the aurora because it is extremely cold and the roads are frozen in fairbanks. That's why it was nice to be able to observe the aurora from a good location through the tour. * The tour guide was well aware of locations with minimal light interference and good for observing Northern Lights, so we were able to see the beautiful aurora dancing. * The tour guide provided kind and rich explanations, and carefully took photos wherever there were auroras to ensure good results. * The tour guide introduced that he has over 17 years of experience in observing the aurora, and it was very impressive to see him still passionately and joyfully searching for the aurora he has seen for years, and we were able to enjoy a more pleasant atmosphere with him. * The company communicated continuously before, during, and after the meeting to ensure a smooth trip. * It tooks more than 2 hours

    David did a great job hunting the lights for us and when we saw some as he was driving, he pulled over quickly to a safe spot so we could see and experience an incredible show. Great photos and his excitement and love for the auroras is contagious!
