This is the longest-running northern lights photo tour in the Anchorage area. We pick you up at your Anchorage accommodations and take you on a nocturnal adventure to witness the beauty of the Alaskan night sky. It's a great option for any travelers to Alaska during August to late April. This tour accommodates serious photographers to sightseers.
We conduct a daily update that includes both the aurora borealis and weather forecast. The tour runs based on that forecast, but runs only if the forecast indicates a chance of seeing the aurora. Because both weather and the aurora borealis are natural phenomena, we cannot guarantee seeing the northern lights.
This tour increases your chance of aurora viewing success by allowing you to reserve as many nights as you like [space available] and only finalizing payment 48 hours in advance under the Reserve Now & Pay Later system. If you do not see the northern lights during your tour, you get a free make-up tour.

My mom and I absolutely loved this tour. Our guide did everything he could to find some of the lights despite the brightness of the moon. We found a few places where the lights were visible, but we were awed even more by the beauty of the snow covered mountains in the moonlight!!

Impressed. The tour cancelled of tour for the previous night as conditions weren't favorable for viewing (I sure some companies run regardless and get your money). This group cancelled and we were able to reschedule for a "favorable" night. We were picked up at 10pm and off in search of aurora's. While driving our guide "Chad" knew everyone about auroras and taught us the fundamentals about them learning what and how they are caused. Magnetic energy at the poles and the charger protons emitted by the sun. We got, many, many pictures of auroras. Our guides taught us the best camera setting and adjustments needed. This was awesome. Would definitely do this tour again. Thanks Ben and Chad. -steve

It’s been a bucket list item to see the Aurora Borealis and did this tour deliver (with a little luck from the weather). Our tour guide, Colin did a great job explaining and finding the best locations. Our other guide Ben did a great job taking professional pictures of our group with the Northern Lights in the background. The warm van and hot chocolate were fantastic during those moments when we needed to warm up! Great tour and highly recommend for your bucket list!

Great experience! We didn’t have the best luck seeing the northern lights but the guides made it super fun. Having photographers capture family photos and the northern lights was amazing!!

Well I wish I had a story to tell. Our excursion was cancelled due to weather visibility. Those are the chances you take I guess. We onlu had a short window of time to witness the aurora borealis. We travelled to Anchorage to provide free dental treatment to the underserved. We were hoping to get the chance to see it the night before we prepare for the 12 hour marathon on Saturday, that begins at 6:00am. We are more disappointed about the weather and not the group. Using the word terrible only expresses our disappointment and not our experience.
