오로라를 제대로 볼 수 있는 최고의 투어! 오로라와 함께 좋은 사진을 찍을 수 있는 투어! What a great experience and picture! Highly recommend! - 오로라를 제대로 보고 싶은 분들 강력 추천합니다 오로라를 보거 싶다는 막연한 생각만 가지고 장문했는데 이 투어 아니었음 오로라 못보고 돌아갈 뻔 했어요. 정말 전문적이고 열정적인 가이드님이 좋은 장소에서 시간 낭비없이 오로라를 볼 수 있도록 해주시고 다른 사람 없는 곳에서 편하게 오로라를 즐길 수 있었습니다. 여기는 도로도 결빙되어있고 춥고 야생동물도 많아서 혼자 렌트해서 돌아다녔다면 노로라를 보지 못하고 고생만하다 돌아갔을 거 같아요. 정말 좋은 경험이었고 모든 분들에게 특히 오로라와 함께 좋은 사진을 얻고 싶은 분들에게 강력 추천합니다!! I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the northen light! I just wanted to see the northen light, so I planned a trip to Alaska without enough preparation, but if it weren't for this tour, I would have gone back without seeing it. Alaska is very cold, and the roads are sometimes icy, and wild animals like moose appear, so it wouldn't be easy for foreigners to rent a car and go see the northen light alone. On the other hand, this tour's guide was professional, had a lot of experience and knowledge, and has lived in Fairbanks for a long time, so he knew a lot of safe spots where you can see the northen light well. He looked at the forecast and sky conditions and went to good spots to chase the Aurora. He knew what time is good to see, so you could see the northen light without wasting time. Very good tour!! Highly recommend to all, especially foreigners!!

Unforgettable Aurora Experience with a Thoughtful Guide!! - David, our guide and photographer, was absolutely amazing. He took the time to capture the most stunning photos of me and my daughter. I mentioned that my daughter has Autism, and David was incredibly considerate, regularly checking in to ensure her comfort. He made sure we had the necessary breaks, and he kindly allowed her to stay warm in the car while others were getting their photos taken. Despite the night having a KP1, which meant very low chances of seeing the Northern Lights, David knew exactly where to go and captured a once-in-a-lifetime shot. If you're thinking of booking an aurora tour, look no further—this is the place! Don't waste time searching anywhere else!

Great excursion to see the aurora - David was great!! We were sure the weather was going to cooperate, but we had a few breaks in the clouds and got to see the lights! He took us to multiple locations trying to maximize the experience and helped us know what to look for. I'd definitely book with him again!

Systematic and friendly Aurora tours - It was a very fantastic experience. Visited as a honeymoon Trips. On the day we went on tour, the kp was high, but the weather was blurred and it wasn't good to see, and the Chaseer continued to move places and try to see Aurora. And I finally found Aurora and had the best experience of my life. I also took a lot of photos from Aurora Spot, making it an experience for the rest of the road. Thank you :)

Northern Lights Chasing Adventure - Our small group was guided by David, a professional photographer with 17 years of experience chasing the northern lights. This intimate setting allowed David to give his full attention to each individual by sharing his depth of knowledge on the subject matter, giving advice on best ways to photograph the Aurora, and moving fast from one location to another in search of the Aurora that night. The display of the northern lights was spectacular, the conversations were enlightening, and the photos that David took of us throughout the night were creative and gorgeous. This was an unforgettable experience, and we highly recommend doing a tour with Northern Lights Chasing.

Northern lights tour in Fairbanks - Great experience! We were picked up on time, communication was great throughout, very comfortable and warm SUV. David was awesome, he drove us to great spots to view the aurora, took lots of pictures. We were able to rest in the SUV for short periods. We had a very clear night and saw this big band of aurora that hung around for a few hours and changed, at one point the lights were dancing. We were seeing them for the first time and David made it a great experience! Thank you, Alaska journey tours!
