If you love the outdoors, you’ve come to the right place. Alaska is infamous for the ultimate in recreational fun and our locals love nothing better than hosting visitors on fun activities from rafting to kayaking, ice climbing to ice fishing. Grab your sneakers, camera and fleece and GET OUTSIDE!

Wildlife

Alaska Brown Bear at Lake crop

Alaska defines “wild life”. After all, there are more moose, bear, whales and caribou in Alaska than people (for sure). On a trip to Alaska you can learn all about animal habitats, feeding and mating behaviors and migrations but best of all, you get to meet them in person. You’ll simply never forget it.

Natural Attractions

Northernlights

When you travel up north, special things happen. The sky turns funny colors. The sun never sets. Glaciers which have existed for centuries, suddenly crash into the water. You can even relax in a burbling hot spring right after you’ve hiked across that icefield. Wouldn’t you want to be part of this action?

Cultural Discovery

Sitka-Natl-Historic-Park-Totem-Poles

Another unique treasure of Alaska are her native peoples. Iñupiat, Yupik, Aleut, Eyak, Tlingit, Haida, Tsimshian, Athabaskan cultures have pioneered fascinating ways of surviving in Alaska’s challenging weather and terrain. Learn about them. Dive into Gold Rush and oil boom history. Meet a local and listen to their stories.

Experience wildlife in their natural habitat

No where else in the U.S. can you find such abundant wildlife as in Alaska. Our “big 5” are just the icing on the cake. From musk ox to moose, dall sheep to dolphins, bear to bison, we’ve got them ALL in Alaska. Meet a few of our 4-footed friends in person. Learn how they thrive in Alaska’s many ecosystems. Experience nature at its finest.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

  • It was perfect. Great hotel. Absolutely loved the Borealis Basecamp. We didn't have a single issue; it was easy to book and easy to access once there. They took care of the transportation planning and everything. Thank you!

  • Everything was well coordinated and everything was laid out for us in an itinerary. The Borealis Basecamp was great. We saw the northern lights two of the three nights we were there. There were very fun things to do during the day. Snowmobiling and dog sledding were the things we did but there was much more to do. We would recommend Alaska Tours to anyone and we would definitely contact them for a future trip.

    Donald - Google

  • Great experience working with Alaska Tours! They made planning so easy. Great suggestions, extremely helpful in arranging all our priority items plus options for our unscheduled time. Clear and timely communication was appreciated. I would definitely contact them again for future trips to Alaska.

  • We visited Alaska in March to see northern lights (aka aurora borealis), ride the Aurora Winter train, and soak in hot springs. This 10-day itinerary was flawless. No problems anywhere along the way. Every day (or night for the aurora viewing) featured a highlight. The trip itself was highly successful and entirely enjoyable.

  • The varied sites in our tour of Fairbanks were all interesting! The pipeline and the Museum of the North were great! North Pole, Santa Claus House and the reindeer were fun! Our guide was informative, and pleasant!

    Chris - Trip Advisor

  • Amazing Alaska! Seeing the aurora borealis was a bucket list item for me. I choose the tour with Alaska Tours for this reason. I could not have asked for better. The accommodations were very comfortable and the train ride from Denali to Anchorage was wonderful!

    Laurie0915 - Tripadvisor

  • I went in February because my biggest wish, and last on my bucket list was to see The Borealis Aurora. I certainly got my wish, but it was overshadowed by all the other experiences I managed to fit in. Would I recommend this trip - absolutely, and if I went to Alaska again I would use this company. My booking agent was very friendly and efficient. The whole trip was seamless - go and enjoy.

  • Our day tour on day 2 was excellent, and turned into a private tour just as scheduled. Later that same night we were taken to a stop to wait and see if the lights appeared and they did! What a treat! We decided to stay an extra day and enjoy snowmobiling and dog sledding since it was a once in a lifetime opportunity. It was a well organized and easy trip and we had a blast.

    Diana - Tripadvisor

  • I had the most unforgettable holiday experience ever, from a fairy-tale Christmas in Fairbanks to charming Chena Hot Springs, breathtaking Borealis Basecamp, and the amazing drive up to the Arctic Circle. Thank you for the most amazing and unforgettable memories!

    JetStar8 - Trip Advisor

  • We had an exceptional guide! We definitely recommend this tour. You will get great pictures of the aurora.
