This 4-night Arctic Circle Northern Lights tour from Fairbanks is ideal for those Alaska travelers seeking a unique Aurora Borealis and Northern Lights viewing adventure in Alaska’s Far North during the fall or winter seasons. Located above the Arctic Circle, a visit to Coldfoot offers unique winter outdoor activities as well as a great opportunity to see Alaska’s Northern Lights. You’ll journey north of Fairbanks by van on the famous Dalton Highway to Coldfoot, a rest stop for Alaska’s “Ice Road Truckers” who are headed to the Prudhoe Bay oil fields. Then fly from Coldfoot back to Fairbanks by small plane as you delight in scenic flightseeing over snowy winter landscapes.

The program will include a combination of hotels or motels that are considered moderate to standard tourist class. Please be aware not all hotels have shuttle services.
If you would like to book the standard program but with upgraded rail seating, the option and surcharge will be listed when you save to your cart.
The program will include standard rooms at this category of hotel where possible. Alaska has very limited hotel choices in remote areas and small towns. The properties will typically offer a wider range of services such as a full-service restaurant, room service and perhaps a pool or spa facilities. Please be aware the upgraded accommodations in downtown Anchorage do not have hotel shuttle services. Many of the upgraded hotels also offer guaranteed view rooms for additional cost. If you would like a specific room type, in addition to the upgraded program, please ask us about availability and cost difference.
All journeys between Anchorage and Whittier are in standard seating as deluxe dome cars are not available on that route.
