On your reindeer tour, our experienced reindeer handlers will introduce you to the herd of reindeer at Borealis Basecamp, and you can feed, meet, and take pictures with these incredible animals.
On your snowmachine tour, your route traces a path along the famous Trans Alaska Pipeline, with a detour through a genuine Alaskan trapline. This tour will treat you to sweeping views of the arctic valleys and the White Mountains as you ride at a comfortable pace through the snowy forest. Watch out for animal tracks in the snow, or if you're lucky enough, wild life sightings can happen even in the coldest of conditions! As you ride, your guide will point out notable features in the trail and can answer questions you may have about the area.

We had an awesome day trip from Fairbanks! Cooper was great at getting us set and maintaining a pace that worked with having 2 person snowmobiles…and made sure we knew when we had flat spots ;). Lance was super knowledgeable about Rory the reindeer, and we had fun on our nature walk. The lunch and service were wonderful.

Snowmobile was SUPER fun, our guide was great, and the scenery was gorgeous! The reindeer walk was a little dangerous with the ice laden trail up hills. The dog sled was absolutely the BEST!!!!

Snowmobile part was wonderful fun. Reindeer walk disappointing-6 of us walking 2 reindeer. Guide enthusiastic/knowledgeable but could only be heard by current walkers; all others in group out of luck. Walk was down the mountain and back up again. I nearly died being out of breath and guide never even noticed-no notice given of the steep terrain and there was much flat place the walk could have been. Timing of ride/walk not properly advertised-picked us up at 0930, ride not until noon, walk not until 3pm. Were there the entire day for 2 hours of tours. Lunch was nothing special and service was TERRIBLE.
