Overview
8 Day Tour from Fairbanks to Anchorage
Fix your eyes on the sky for the chance to witness the wonder of the Northern Lights (aurora borealis) turning the night into a luminescent spectacle. Celebrate Alaska’s longest season and seek adventure in Denali National Park, with fewer crowds and better mountain views. On this thrill-filled Alaska vacation, chase the “Greatest Show on Earth” at night, ride the world-famous Alaska Railroad, visit the kennels of four-time Iditarod Champion Martin Buser and put your own paws in the snow at the Girdwood mountain resort. Come out for the Ceremonial Start in Anchorage to Alaska’s best sporting event, “Alaska’s Last Great Race,” with mushers barking commands to teams of sled dogs in hopes of being the first to cross 1,000 treacherous miles of rugged winter terrain, then continue to Willow to cheer at the Official Start, as they take off towards the finish-line in Nome.
