Itinerary

  • WELCOME TO FAIRBANKS

    Welcome to the heart of Alaska! Upon arrival, settle into our cozy wilderness lodge, surrounded by snow-dusted trees and the stillness of the northern frontier. Take the afternoon to unwind, breathe in the crisp Arctic air, and get acquainted with your surroundings. As evening falls, we’ll gather for a warm welcome dinner before setting out on our first Northern Lights chase. Beneath the vast Alaskan sky, watch ribbons of color dance above you—a sight that feels nothing short of magic. (Please note: any meals before dinner today are not included.)

  • DOG SLEDDING & CULTURAL DISCOVERY

    Enjoy a leisurely breakfast before venturing out for an unforgettable morning of dog sledding through the snowy backcountry. Ride alongside an expert musher as a team of huskies pulls you across sparkling trails and frozen landscapes. After a cozy lunch, we’ll explore the city of Fairbanks and visit the Morris Thompson Cultural Center, where you’ll gain insight into Alaska’s rich Indigenous heritage and traditions. This evening, relax at the lodge or take an optional nighttime stroll in search of the Aurora dancing once more.

  • CHENA HOT SPRINGS & ICE MUSEUM

    After breakfast, we travel to the Chena Hot Springs, a geothermal oasis tucked into the snowy wilderness. Soak in steaming mineral pools as snowflakes drift overhead—a true Alaskan indulgence. Later, we’ll visit the enchanting Aurora Ice Museum, where intricate ice sculptures glimmer under ethereal blue light. As night falls, we’ll embark on another guided Aurora chase, with hopes of witnessing nature’s most spectacular light show once again.

  • NORTH POLE & FAREWELL AURORA

    Enjoy a relaxed breakfast before heading to the charming town of North Pole, where festive spirit lingers year-round. Spend the afternoon exploring, shopping for unique keepsakes, or simply savoring your final free day in Alaska. Tonight, we’ll set out together one last time into the quiet backcountry for our final Aurora Borealis viewing—a breathtaking farewell to this Arctic wonderland.

  • FAREWELL FAIRBANKS

    After breakfast, it’s time to say goodbye to Alaska’s winter magic. Transfer to the airport for your journey home, carrying with you memories of star-filled skies, icy adventures, and the spellbinding glow of the Northern Lights.
