The Northern Lights are one of the world’s most spectacular natural phenomena, and this evening tour gives you the opportunity to experience them for yourself. Your adventure begins with pickup from your Fairbanks hotel before traveling ~60 miles (100 km) to Chena Hot Springs Resort.
Visit the famous Aurora Ice Museum, a unique attraction built entirely from ice. Inside, admire hand-carved ice sculptures, chandeliers, and ice bar.
Relax in the soothing outdoor hot springs surrounded by Alaska’s winter scenery, soak in the natural mineral waters, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the resort.
Around midnight, begin watching the sky for the Aurora Borealis. This natural phenomenon occurs when charged particles collide with atoms high in Earth’s atmosphere, creating brilliant waves of dancing color across the sky that can be bright enough to read a newspaper by.
Arrive back at your hotel between 3:00~4:00 AM after an unforgettable Alaskan night.
