About

It's the same as the Premier Aurora Tour, but instead of us picking you up at your Fairbanks hotel, you drive yourselves up to our viewing lodge. From downtown Fairbanks, we are located 20 miles northeast - about a 30 minute drive - in the famed Cleary Summit area. NOTE: Directions to the lodge will be e-mailed or texted to you. Relax in the warmth of the lodge while you check for the aurora out the big northside windows. Once the lights are out, you'll want to step outside onto the large deck to soak in the view. And if you get cold, just go back in and help yourself to a cup of hot coffee, tea, or cocoa, available self-serve. And indoor restrooms. Lodge hours are 10:30pm to 2:00am.

Please note that during the winter season (October to April), an AWD/4WD vehicle is required.

What to bring:

  • Warm clothing
  • A camera
