Overview

This is a small, private tour to the Arctic Circle. Passengers will be riding in a comfy 2025 Toyota Sequoia and brand new winter tires.

Scheduling on the website is a bit tricky and doesn't allow for next day returns, just keep in mind the trip will take 10-12 hours depending on weather and how much time you'd like to spend at each location.

We'll be travelling through mountain passes, river valleys, and possibly seeing the Northern Lights along the way.

This tour is flexible and allows for you to request a stop anywhere along the way to stretch your legs, take photos, or even just enjoy the views.

Pickup Time is completely customizable to work with your schedule!

Meeting and Pickup

Pickup point
Pickup details

Pickup time will vary depending on the daylight hours available. The general premise is to have scenic views during daylight and to reach the Arctic Circle right around sunset. This allows for possible sightings of the aurora on the entire trip back to Fairbanks. Upon pickup we'll head to the gas station to grab whatever snacks you may require, use the latrines, and then head out into the north!

What To Expect
