The most comfortable way to see the Aurora in Alaska

Join us on one of our most requested tours to the famous Chena Hot Springs Resort starting with a tour of the Fairbanks Ice Museum. (Please note that this is not the ice museum located at Chena Hot Springs as this is currently closed for remodeling.)

An informative guided tour through the Fairbanks Ice Museum (open year round) displaying magnificent ice sculptures will leave you amazed.  Then, sit back and relax while you are transported 60 miles out to the Chena Hot Springs Resort.  Enjoy a meal at the restaurant which offers locally cultivated vegetables and Alaskan seafood (optional and not included in price) and then soak in the legendary healing mineral waters of the hot spring.  You can also take a stroll outside to see if the beautiful and breathtaking Aurora Borealis is dancing overhead (the presence of the aurora is not guaranteed).  A little after midnight, join your group and be transported back to your hotels in Fairbanks, with optional stops to try and spot the aurora, if it is out.

Highlights:

  • Tour of the Fairbanks Ice Museum and witness world champion ice carvers at work.
  • Relax in the healing waters of Chena Hot Springs outdoor rock pool or Hot Tub. (for adults 18+ only)
  • Warm up in the Activity Center with a hot beverage while waiting for the Northern Lights.
  • We will allow plenty of time for photography to ensure you will not forget this experience
