First off..super easy to book this excursion. We had our confirmation the day after booking. Peace of mind upon leaving for the trip. Our guide Matthew, arrived on time to pick us up, was super friendly and knowledgeable. Loved -loved -loved the yurts to keep us warm, restroom facilities in the warm and Matthew was the expert set of eyes to help us see the lites as soon as they started. I soooo recommend this place for anything outdoor in Fairbanks!!!
About this time last year I decided to go to Alaska (solo) for some Aurora hunting. Bought an American Airlines ticket and prepaid lodging at Alpine Lodge (breakfast and free shuttle to airport). Kasey at 1st Alaska Outdoor School arranged all of the trips from dog sledding to Chena Hot Springs to Aurora Viewing Lodge Tour to the Arctic Circle Christmas Eve. OMG! She put together the most amazing trip. All of the tour guides made me feel safe in a very cold wilderness. Most of the guides have military survival training. Randy was my favorite. Be certain to take a wide angle lense for memorable pictures. Finally, I cannot say enough good things about Kasey! She is one of the best travel agents I have meet in more that 40 years of travel!
