6 Multi-day Tours in Fairbanks That You Shouldn't Miss

May 5, 2022 Weston Hennigan

Its far north location means Fairbanks gets the midnight sun in the summer and the northern lights during Aurora Season (August to April). These wonders define the city, along with winter activities, the gold rush past, Alaska Native heritage, a vibrant arts scene and “golden heart” hospitality. Enjoy dog mushing, panning for gold, floating the Chena River or visiting a museum. Add a nearby trip to a hot springs, Denali, the Arctic or the Interior. Fairbanks is the gateway to discovering Alaska.

The Northern Lights were fantastic. Joe, our driver, got us in a dark place so we could see the lights better. He really cares for his passengers. Hope I can have him for my driver when I go back

I booked a tour for myself and my four teenaged children and we had a blast. Our guides were entertaining to say the least and they made sure we had a great time. This was a great way to get some adventuring time with my family. I felt like my kids were safe the entire time, even though they were handling ATV's all by themselves! Highly recommend!
