We don’t just take you to the Northern Lights — we chase them.

At Aurora In Alaska™, our exclusive SkyChase™ Northern Lights Experience uses our Lights-for-Life™ Formula to track weather, clouds, and solar activity in real time to take you to the clearest skies, at the best time.

Travel in a heated, winterized Mercedes Sprinter van, relax at our mobile Aurora lodge, enjoy a twilight campfire meal, and sip drinks from our Borealis Brew Bar. Receive unlimited Aurora portraits from our pro photographers, plus night-lapse video and tripod rentals.

What To Expect

1

Fairbanks

As our home base, Fairbanks is one of the best locations in the world for Northern Lights viewing — located directly under the Aurora Oval. Each night, our SkyChase™ tour departs from Fairbanks and uses the Lights-for-Life™ Formula to determine the optimal location outside the city for clear skies and strong activity.

Admission Not Applicable
2

Murphy Dome

Murphy Dome is one of the highest accessible points in the Fairbanks area and occasionally used on clear-sky nights for its panoramic views and low light pollution. It’s a prime example of the remote high-elevation locations our team accesses while chasing the Aurora.

  • Amazing experience, well organized and long but great evening

    We were so grateful for the rebooking policy. We were unsure if we would be able to see the lights as the weather had been pretty iffy during the day, but we had a wonderful evening. The lights were amazing. So grateful that Leo taught me how to use my camera in night mode. I was able to get some great photos without even having a tripod. The reindeer sausage was pretty good considering I didn’t want to try it. The photographers were patient and tried different poses. (We don’t have our photos back yet-hoping they will be good). The only hard part was that we didnt get back to our hotel til 3:30 a.m. and we’re leaving for the Artic Circle in just a few hours.

    Amazing experience! Tony and Mike were fantastic guides. We saw a sky full of Northern Lights, roasted reindeer hot dogs by the fire, and took unlimited photos (all emailed to us in raw form at no extra cost). Everything from pickup to drop-off was smooth. I highly recommend this tour to anyone!

    Cloudy night but they traveled to find the aurora. Hours in the van, they did find even though early season. We're helpful with getting the camera settings dialed in.
