Not a single meeting with the Northern Lights is like another. Each time the lights change colors and start new dance. Their main hue is green, but it can be purple, pink, red and blue, depending on their strength and atmospheric conditions. Aurora Borealis is a mystical unpredictable and beautiful phenomenon that suddenly appears and disappears in the same way.

They did a great job bringing us to a secret location to see the aurora. Their photography was fantastic and we could take as many pictures as we wanted. I appreciate their humor and punctuality. They were knowledgeable and watched the space weather during the night. They were willing to keep chasing aurora deep into the early morning hours if we wanted to, but also left it up to us if we wanted to return. The hand and toe warmers they provided saved my life and the snacks were great. They could have improved on their communication.

This tour was amazing! They use scientific aurora and weather data to find the best chances of viewing and we saw spectacular aurora two nights in a row! They are knowledgeable and friendly and took great photos too! We highly recommend their aurora tours!

Alaina was an awesome tour guide! Very knowledgeable and accommodating. The van was very comfy for the ~10 hour trip. Despite low probability, Alaina was able to find an aurora for us fairly quickly once we got away from the city and we took a ton of pictures. We waited around for another aurora until around 3 AM before heading back to Fairbanks. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is serious about seeing the northern lights the way they were seen hundreds of years ago!

We loved this tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour fun. We saw the aurora and our guide took many pictures of us with the aurora. It was an experience I’ll never forget.

We drove at least 150 miles away from Fairbanks to capture the lights. Our driver shared so much information about how the lights work within the atmosphere, solar winds, and magnetic fields. We were able to see the lights and capture some amazing pictures/videos of them. We also saw 16 moose along our trip. One of the best parts of the trip was our guides excitement and enthusiasm about seeing the lights. Even though he’s seen them hundreds of times, he was so excited to share them with us.

It was a cloudy night but Elena and Ed made sure we got to see the northern lights. They patiently chased it and made sure to explain what was happening. They also made sure everyone was comfortable and warm throughout the trip. They also made a bonus stop for a surprise guest while coming back (see the pictures). A great way to see the lights in the Fairbanks area !

Amazing, spiritual, other worldly. Elena and Ed were incredibly caring. Their passion for customers to enjoy and experience Aurora is our of this world!! Even though we already had an amazing view of Lady A, on the way back, we saw some more and they immediately stopped the van and told us to go out to experience it! I highly recommend this tour for everyone!
