Day Tour Details

What's Included:
  • Transportation from Anchorage to viewing area
  • Guided photo tour and photography instruction
  • Light snacks, water and hot beverages
  • All taxes and fees
What's Not Included:

Camera and related gear.  If your aim is to take home aurora images of your own, you will need to bring a camera with manual settings. For smartphone users it is recommended to upload an aurora app and bring a phone tripod. Tripod not included (but available for loan during tour).

Physical Activity: This is a moderate activity that involves short walks on snow and ice. Weather conditions may include wind, and temperatures range from -20ºF to 50ºF (-29ºC to 10ºC).
Special Terms: A 2-person minimum is required for the tour to operate.  The tour will only operate when conditions are right, which means at least Kp1 (aurora activity index) and less than 50% cloud cover.

We wanted to do a self-guided tour, not a cruise or a bus trip. Our trip couldn't have been more perfect. All of our accommodations, car rental, train, fly-ins, etc. were prearranged. It was truly a trip of a lifetime. Thank you.
