The only private aurora tour in Fairbanks with both a wilderness lodge and mobile chase capability. Recommended by National Geographic, your group gets exclusive use of the lodge, van, and guide—the night runs entirely on your schedule.

On clear nights, you watch the aurora from a warm cedar cabin with panoramic windows, a fireplace, and hot drinks deep in Alaska's interior. If clouds move in, your guide Michael, a lifelong Alaskan, takes your group mobile to chase clear skies—so a cloudy forecast doesn't cost you the lights.
