Ice Fishing and Northern Lights - Book this tour! Learned a lot about Alaska, and how to better anticipate the Northern Lights. Our guide Greg was awesome and cooking the fish we caught along with seeing the lights makes this tour unique!

We joined the Aurora Ice... - We joined the Aurora Ice Fishing tour at Chena Lake and it was truly an unforgettable experience. We fished comfortably inside a warm little cabin, and at the end our guide cooked the fresh-caught fish for us — it wasn’t big, but it tasted delicious! When we stepped outside, we were lucky enough to see the northern lights as well. Our tour guide was a young guy who shared lots of interesting local stories and made the whole trip fun and engaging. Highly recommend this experience if you’re visiting Fairbanks!

Great cozy ice fishing experience! - We had a great experience ice fishing with our guide Michael! The little wooden cabin was very cozy and we were able to see shooting stars outside. It was our first time fishing ever and we were able to catch dozens of fishes. The experience was made even more fun by our guide Michael’s warm and inviting personality and his fascinating stories. It was definitely a special memory for us and we loved hanging out with Michael!

Lots of fish! Saw the aurora! Great guide! - Wow, what a fun trip. Highly recommend. We did the option of having a driver as I did not want to drive in snow and ice. Tyson was great! He picked us up on time and was great. He was telling us about local areas and points of interest. Tyson was also our fishing guide. Showed us the aurora when it was barely visible and then let us know to go out on the ice when the aurora was booming. We caught tons of fish! 30+ each. He cooked them up and we has a delicious dinner. This will be one all time favorite vacation memories.

Unforgettable Ice Fishing & Aurora Tour! - Tyson at Alaska Fishing and Adventures: Our experience with Alaska Fishing and Adventures was absolutely incredible, thanks to our amazing guide, Tyson! From start to finish, he made sure our ice fishing adventure was both exciting and comfortable, providing top-notch gear, expert guidance, and plenty of great stories along the way. Tyson’s knowledge of the area was impressive, and he went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience. The highlight of the trip? Witnessing the breathtaking Aurora Borealis under the vast Alaskan sky—it was truly magical! If you’re looking for an authentic, well-organized, and unforgettable Alaskan adventure, look no further. Huge thanks to Tyson and the entire team—we’ll definitely be back! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Curb your expectations! - This is a nice experience IF you have the right expectations. Our guide was knowledgeable and nice and we did see northern lights, however, that was pretty much the only positive. The fish you catch are tiny! (Maybe 4-6 inches long in a pond stocked with them) when we started fishing and I saw the size of the hooks, I could tell we were fishing for fish smaller than sun fish. They do cook them for you, however it is heavily supplemented and primarily Costco salmon filets. You have your choice of watching northern lights or fishing from the cabin-you cannot do both at the same time because you need lights on for fishing and lights off for northern light watching. The cabins are tiny with 12 people plus a guide packed in. My expectations were to high which lead to a disappointing experience.
