In Fairbanks, fish and eat inside heated ice cabins, then watch the aurora through panorama windows on a 5-hour night tour.
“Disappointed, Aurora only showed for 1 min and we missed it bc the guide was busy fixing our dinner at midnight. Dinner was good, but he did not remove many bones when filleting. Everyone had many remaining bones.”
Fairbanks northern lights viewing with a warm Alaska yurt cabin dinner, plus round-trip hotel pickup and coffee/tea for about 5 hours.
“I’m going to be brutally honest here, so buckle up. There was ONE good thing about this tour and that was the communication between the scheduler and us. They kept us updated about the tour and the times of pickup. Pickup was on time and then the tour went downhill from there. Our tour guide…”
