Amazing Artic Experience - It was a great tour with a fantastic guide. It was a very scenic ride with multiple stops. We got to see the Alaska pipeline. Our driver and guide, Cody, was very personable, friendly, and accommodating. Getting to go to the Artic Circle was an amazing experience. We were able to see 2 moose and a bunch of ptarmigans. This tour was well worth it!!

Worth the LOOOONG drive - Our driver Nick was amazing. We had so many questions and he did his best to answer them all. Our 8yo asked a lot of questions and Nick was very patient and kind to him. When you are on a van for 12 hours, it is nice to have.a great driver. The trip had a lot of great highlights, beautiful Alaskan sites, ptarmigans, feeding the grey jays at the circle, walking on the frozen Yukon River and even seeing the Norther Lights on the way back. Not the most spacious van, legs were very achy by the end, but worth it. Needed lots of warm layers as you are on and off a warm van into the -20 degree weather with wind. Thanks Nick! Very memorable. -The Reno Family of 5.

Lots of cool wild life and just interesting in general. Host was very knowledgeable and van was comfortable. The company had plastic inserts in the windows that eliminated frosted windows (limits deposition frosting).

Time does not good for customer. - The time does not benefit customers. If we starting is one or two hours late. We can see Northern Lights on the way back. I will recommend others tour companies that we met on the way. They started at 11 or 12 PM to friends.
