“Fantastische schipper Piere, ontzettend vriendelijk en werkte hard om je een goede ervaring te geven. Nadat we op de heenweg veel bewolking hadden en niets konden zien, hebben we op de terugweg nog een poging gewaagd op het dek en kregen we een ontzettend mooie Noorderlicht show te zien.”
Review of Fairbanks VIP Aurora Adventure: private four-hour viewing, hotel pickup, snacks, photos, pricing, timing, and honest drawbacks.
“This tour was beyond fantastic! Our guide drove us to the most ideal spot to view the lights, and he took the best photos anyone could ask for. It takes skill to capture the lights, and he did it perfectly! I went with my husband, twin sister, and my 6 year old son. I highly recommend this trip for anyone who is looking for adventure. The cost of the tour is also a steal for exclusive access to one of the world’s best views.”
Review of Fairbanks’ Cleary Summit Aurora Glass House tour, with warm viewing, hotel pickup, photos, hot drinks, pricing, and practical tips.
“There wasn't a lot of activity which is beyond anyone's control. The team, however, did everything to make us comfortable, plenty of snacks and hot drinks. When there was activity, they alerted us and took a photo of whoever wanted one with the Aurora in the background with a brief flash to light those being photographed. Cool photo. Best of all, we could stay warm (it was about-38 outside I think), see outside easily, and sit comfortably while waiting.”

Review of Fairbanks luxury RV aurora tour with small groups, photography help, hot drinks, snacks, hotel pickup, and flexible viewing stops.
“The R.V. is an ideal way to travel for viewing the lights. It is comfortable and warm. A small group and the dynamic was helpful and friendly. Our guide Michael was a great host and photographer! Most importantly it was a great night for the lights. An experience not easily had but will be a memory for life.”
