NORTHERN LIGHTS
IN THE LAST FRONTIERExperience nature’s best light show north of Fairbanks, where the Aurora Borealis is often the
brightest and most reliable. Venture into the Alaskan backcountry with husky sled dogs, visit
the Aurora Ice Museum (and Ice Bar!) and attend the World Ice Art Championships. Don’t
forget the best part – the nightly Aurora Borealis shows lighting up the sky.
ITINERARY AT A GLANCE
DAYS
TWO
ONE
This trip focuses on two great wintertime experiences:
Northern Lights viewing, and ice sculpting! Because
Fairbanks is closer to the highly active area over the Arctic
The light show is often much brighter and more reliable
than over other areas of Alaska. Other trip highlights include
dog sledding, visiting the Aurora Ice Museum (and Ice Bar!),
and attending the World Ice Art Championships.
While in our care you’ll receive 24/7
support and the flawless delivery of your
travel experience. We obsess over
every detail so that you don’t have to.
Your journey is bespoke, created just for
you. All that’s left for you to do is to
enjoy Alaska – it is wild, soulful and truly
unforgettable.
