    We love to ride sxs’s and have our own that we travel with when we can so we have some background riding.. This excursion was by far the best utv excursion we’ve been on. The guide was great, the views were beautiful and the terrain was anything but boring. We did the midnight sun ride which was really cool to be out riding at night but it still be light out. The machines were very well kept and would be easy to drive even for beginners. If you’re in the area, I recommend this excursion, you won’t regret it! Thank you for a great ride!!

    Awesome!!!

    Tom_Z, Aug 2025
    I thought nothing would come close to a helicopter excursion landing on a glacier, but wow, ripping through a forest in Alaska on trails unlike any I've ridden before during an excursion ( all past experiences were on very level, flat roads, honestly, not much more than a paved road ) it really felt like we just took off into the forest on roads never driven on before!!! Mud splashing up all over if you so chose lol. The views? Spectacular. The guides? Even better. Do yourself a favor and book this excursion.

    Incredible!

    Paul was amazing! We had such a great time- the trip was incredible! You really get to drive the ATV’s- through mud, climb steep loose rock, and make waves through mud. Incredible views of Fairbanks and the surrounding beautiful wild green hills. Would definitely do again; this was a phenomenal experience!

    Super fun!

    We had a great time with Paul leading us on the Side by Side trail! What a once in lifetime experience riding through the Alaskan forest in the evening. Rain/Cover gear and helmets etc were provided. Make sure to wear boots that can get muddy.

    Fun night

    Gina_M, Jul 2025
    Great machines and a challenging trail with beautiful views. They had everything we needed for the night ride.

    Awesome Riding

    Great ride! Owner was our guide and he went as fast as we wanted. Not for the faint of heart. Well organized with no wasted time before hitting the trails. Lots of spring water and mud!😁

    Jenny was fantastic and expect to get wet and muddy!

    LindsayP_W, Aug 2024
    Jenny (our guide) was fantastic! Really enjoyed the door-to-door pickup service at our hotel and the fact that they provided wet-outer-gear for us.

    Must do in Fairbanks!

    Katherine_S, Jul 2024
    What a great tour!! Our guide Keith was amazing. Highly recommend! The views were amazing and the ATV was so easy to maneuver as it was my first time driving.

    Great ending to a great trip!

    Denice_S, Jun 2024
    The ride was to an awesome mountain top lookout. Could not have arrive on any other transportation. It was an amazing experience! The guides were so helpful and made sure everyone was safe!

    Great Tour! Would go again.

    dottie_v, Jun 2024
    Even though the tour started 40 minutes later than we thought. It was awesome! This tour has the best views and the best guides. You actually get to see what the side by side will do. We’re super glad we did this! Wear long sleeves and long pants! But it was so worth it.

    Handicap wonderful!

    Ruth_S, Jun 2024
    Awesome, Awesome, Awesome! My husband is basically paraplegic but for one of very few times enjoying the outdoors, it didn’t matter! The 4x4’s were top quality, the trails were of all types: steep rocky inclines, curvy flatlands to catch serious speed, deep muddy areas that although as my husband said “you didn’t have to go through that way”, my response “yeah, but I knew I could!”. Paul and Eli were knowledgeable, kind, accommodating and…fun! It was the best time outdoors we’ve had in years! We can’t thank you enough! Sincerely, the Salik’s

    4 hours of nature and fun

    Amazing journey. Felt safe and well guided. 36 miles of virgin forest and mountains galore. Worth every penny. Thank you!

    2023 Alaska ATV Adventure in Fairbanks

    Jeffrey_H, Aug 2023
    One of the best tours we have been on. We are avid ATV people, and it's hard to get an experience that fulfills what WE want to do on a tour. This was definitely very close. Hill climbing, rugged, beautiful views, and great equipment.

    A nice experience

    Jim_M, Aug 2023
    Enjoyed it we got a chance to see a bit of the wilderness and have some fun 😊 thanks. Paul and John took care of us to make it a safe memorable adventure

    First night in Fairbanks

    Bill_C, Aug 2023

    Anne_W, Jun 2023
    We had a blast on the whole trip even the bumpy ride up. Paul and Joe were great guides. They catered to everyone's comfort level

    Best Way to View the Alaska Wilderness

    Graham_G, Jun 2023
    This was by far one of the best excursions we have done! It was 3 1/2 hours of nonstop fun and breathtaking views. Paul (the owner) was our tour guide. He made sure we had a great experience. There is no better way to view this area. If you are thinking about this tour, just do it! But you will get a little dusty so say yes to goggles, gloves and a gaitor!

    Paul was very organized and accommodating. The Side by Side tour was thrilling and Paul was an excellent guide. He was very informative. This is a must do and highly recommended.

    Awesome

    Michael_A, Jul 2022
    Midnight Sun ATV was amazing! The all retired military crew was terrific! We highly recommend them, the evening trip is perfect!

    Great time!!

    Marcia_Y, Jul 2022
    Driving the side by side myself! I was a little nervous at first. Our guide was patient, helpful and friendly.

    Great evening adventure

    Howard_C, Jul 2022
    Great ride through, over and around the Alaskan countryside. The trails provided great views and we got the challenges of driving a more technical trail at parts. Not your boring follow the leader ride. We would do it again.

    fantastic experience!

    Ed_K, Jul 2022
    Had a fantastic time! The guides were terrific. All equipment and gear was clean and well organized in their facility. Views and trails were great and fun to drive on. I would definitely do this again! I highly recommend this. Book it now if you are thinking about it.

    Our Alaska Adventure 2022

    Sandy_B, Jun 2022
    It surpassed everything we had hoped for! Paul and Bo (Beau) we’re excellent guides, we felt safe at all times, and it was a BLAST! Way beyond any UTV tour around - Back country at its best!

    Cool adventure

    Kate_B, Sep 2021
    Awesome experience - believe Bo when he tells you it’s gonna be cold and take him up on the hot hands!

    Side by side tour

    Jesus_S, Sep 2021
    Losts of fun and very safe. I do recommend to use warm clothes if you plan to go in September, it gets very cold. Overall, it is a very gun and memorable experience.

    Memorable and fun experience

    Blair_C, Aug 2021
    First time using a side by side. Our guides were patient and helpful. This was truly an amazing experience. On clear days views from the trail expand through lush wilderness areas. This trip was a great value and created a wonderful memory of our Fairbanks vacation.

    A must do in Fairbanks.

    Craig_T, Aug 2021
    If you are in the Fairbanks area, make this a priority! It is a fantastic time!! The vehicles were clean, well maintained and the guides were professional and fun. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Wish they had a day long adventure that went further.

    Fabulous Fun
