    and start new dance. Their main hue is green,
    but it can be purple,
    pink, red and blue,

    Borealis is a mystical unpredictable and beautiful phenomenon that suddenly appears and disappears in the same way.

Our weather was cloudy... - Our weather was cloudy during the entire trip so we weren’t expecting to see the aurora, but this trip changed our minds. This tour takes us to a place where there’s a chance of visibility, so each night, they will take us to a different spot . For us, we went to somewhere south east from Fairbanks, and we did get to see a bit so bright northern lights, but it came out great in the photos, and we aren’t disappointed in booking this tour. Just note that the tour may take longer hours compared to others, but the ride was comfortable and they do make stops at the gas stations.

A review from resident in California - The tour guide is so responsible! They really want you to meet the Aurora, they will try their best to chase it! And when you meet the aurora, they will encourage you to take as many photos as you want. Really a good trip!

MAGICAL Northern Lights Tour - Oh my gosh, y’all- you can stop your research here and book with Arctic Night Tours. This was the best decision I made after booking our flight to Fairbanks! We had an exceptionally magical night with Arctic Night Tours! The guides were so kind, helpful and knowledgeable. Their communication leading up to the tour was very clear. They called us that evening and told us the forecast was not good and offered to let us reschedule or get a full refund. That evening was our only chance to go, so we decided to risk it and keep our tour as scheduled. We are SO GLAD we did! Ed drove us 100 miles from Fairbanks to hunt the Aurora, and it turned into one of the most magical moments of our lives. After quite a drive (which he handled with ease), we all got out of the van and saw the northern lights! They continued to grow across the sky and get bigger and bigger! They even danced for us a few times! We got the most incredible show that lasted over 2 hours. I know our guides can’t control the lights, but because of their immense knowledge of the lights and the area, and a little bit of luck, we experienced something even better than we hoped. They set up cameras and took so many pictures of us and the other groups and the lights. We could not be more pleased with this experience. If we ever make it back to Fairbanks, we will definitely join them again! If anyone we know or love plans a visit, we will strongly encourage them to book with Arctic Night Tours. This was the best part of a wonderful trip! Highly, highly recommend!!!!

Dream come true of experiencing the colors, shapes, movements of the Northern lights - This tour was fabulous. My husband and I went two days in a row with them . Ed and Elena, the tour guides were so fun loving and made sure that all of us had the best experience witnessing the Northern lights. We went to very remote places that were so beautiful, with snow clad mountains, clear skies and a quiet place where the experience of seeing the Northern lights was surreal for me. They also encouraged us to pose for photos that they edited nicely and sent a link to us.They also in addition sent a couple of videos. We could see the passion with which Ed and Elena planned the tour and made sure the passengers were comfortable and got the best experience of Mother nature's display of colors and design in the sky.

Great tour experience! - We had a great time with arctic night tours! They picked us up on time and made sure we were warm and comfortable the entire ride. We did get to see the aurora around 1:00 am. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is interested in taking this type of tours.

Amazing tour and amazing people - It was amazing. They picked us up from our hotel with an energy that lasted into the morning hours. We left at 8 pm and returned around 5am. They gave us an experience we will never forget. They knew when the lights were starting to pick up and took us to multiple locations to get the perfect experience. They were interactive the whole time taking pictures of all the tourists. They made sure you got the best viewing experience possible. They are wonderful people and truly care about you getting everything out of the night you wanted. We can not say enough positive things about them. I would book them again. They are very knowledgeable about the lights and how to judge if you are in the best location for the best show.

Best Northern Lights Tour - Ed and Elena are AMAZING. The kindest people who love what they do. They aren't afraid to drive a long distance to make sure you have the best chance of seeing the northern lights. We were so so lucky that we got to see the lights when we went on our tour. They even called us to ask if we could switch to a day sooner because the forecast was stronger for that day instead of the one we booked! They go above and beyond for everyone, making sure everyone gets as many pictures with the lights as they can. They make being in the cold and staying up super late well worthwhile. Not to mention that cake was delicious! If/when we return to Fairbanks, we will 100% be going on another tour with Ed and Elena.

Incredible Experience - This was such an amazing experience. You can tell that the tour guides enjoy what they do are determined to make your trip an unforgettable experience. The tour guides were not only knowledgeable, but they also had a contagious excitement. They explained to us how they lights are created and what to expect as they get closer and bigger. This trip was part of my honeymoon, and it was so worth the trip. Definitely cold out there, so dress warm, but the van was warmer than the outside which provided some relief. The view, the pictures they took and the ones that we took were amazing. They helped explain how to take better pictures and they took many themselves that we got to keep a copy of.

Once In A Lifetime Experience - This is a lovely husband and wife team that took us out in two different vans. We drive about an hour outside of Fairbanks and while we waited for the lights to show, we were treated to some great information about how the lights appear, what causes them, etc. Then the light show began! The guides ushered us all out and took plenty of photos for us - they kept the energy up en with temps dripping below zero. Hand/feet warmers were provided along with snacks! We had a fabulous time and would 100% recommend them to anyone wishing to see these incredible lights.
