Absolutely worth it! Such an amazing experience… - Such an amazing experience! Our guide picked us up right on time (super reliable!), and the hot springs were absolutely incredible—so relaxing and magical! The roads were super slippery, and honestly, driving there myself would have been a nightmare. So glad I booked a guide—it made the trip stress-free and so much more enjoyable!

Hot springs - The hot springs was definitely worth it and the operator communicated with me so no need to worry. Michael was a great guide. The aurora museum can be skipped

Hot Springs are cool. Ask what language the tour will be given - Chena is touristy, but worth going to see. The drive from Fairbanks was long and the driver spoke over a mic in Chinese only. It should be disclosed the tour would be in Chinese. The second van in our tour had a driver that spoke English and was able to communicate where and when to meet up for the drive back to Fairbanks. Fortunately we read other reviews and knew to book the ice museum in advance, booked early in the morning the day of our trip. It was sold out upon arrival. Hot springs is amazing but locker room chaotic. Give yourself plenty of time to shower, dress and dry your hair before the end of the tour. It seems Chena accepts too many visitors in the hot springs than the locker room can handle.

Ruined my day. High price and vague descriptions. Admissions tickets were not included, Sold out will lead to stuck ther - I recommend Chena hot springs but not this tour. Worst tour operator and driver to deal with. Paid almost 800 bucks for family of four but no admission tickets were included in reservation. Tour description says don’t miss Ice museum but didn’t mention clearly that tickets are not included and may sold out so book in advance. Same thing happened and we couldn’t visit Ice museum. There was no reminder from Viator as well. It took long time to convince tour operator that hot springs tickets are included as Driver was not sure, neither the operator. Ruined my day!!
