Alyeska Pipeline Viewing Point
We begin our 14-hour long journey to the Arctic Circle with a convenient pick up at any hotel or address inside the city limits of Fairbanks or North Pole. Settle into your seat and relax on the 200 mile (322 km) journey down the back roads of Interior Alaska. We provide free snacks and drinks to ensure your utmost comfort in our climate-controlled vans. Take a trip back in time as you travel down the Dalton Highway. Featured on the TV show Ice Road Truckers, the Dalton Highway (technically Alaska Route 11) runs north-south through Alaska, nearly all the way to the Arctic Ocean, and parallels the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. It’s one of the most isolated roads in the United States and provides some beautiful Alaskan scenery for you to enjoy during the ride. With sweeping views of mountains and valleys, you will see the Trans-Alaskan Pipeline System (TAPS), one of the largest pipeline systems, transporting thousands of gallons of oil from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez, up close.
Stop at Hilltop Restaurant & Marketplace. You can purchase extra drinks, snacks and food there but please order it for takeout.

My tour did not get to...

5.00My tour did not get to see the northern lights because it was cloudy, it’s hard to predict the weather and not the tour‘s fault. We had a very good driver and Alaskan native as our tour guide.
Fun trip.

4.00Fun trip. Our driver Ron, was excellent. I only rated 4 stars because a bad accident stopped us short of our destination. We would book this trip with Viator again.
Checks the boxes, not great. Recommend daytime arctic tour to enjoy scenery and separate lights chasing tour.

3.00This tour checked the boxes, but overall was not great due to the length/timing of the trip and the discomfort of the vehicle. Here are the Pros: -Scenery on the way to the arctic circle was beautiful. -Our guide, Guy, was knowledgeable and answered many questions. He also played some Alaskan Storytelling podcasts that were very entertaining and helped pass the time on the way there. -We made it to the Arctic Circle. -We saw the Northern Lights. It had been cloudy and rainy/snowy when we left Fairbanks. But, it was clear skies closer to the arctic and we did see the lights arching across the sky like a big green rainbow! Cons: -The drive was VERY long. We were picked up at 2pm and were dropped back off at 4am. The cumulative time of our stops was only about 2hrs, which means we were driving for 12hrs! -Due to the length of the drive, there was very little time for stops. When we did stop it was to use the bathroom and snap a quick photo, then back in the van. This was very disappointing when the lights came out because we did not have much time to watch them dance. -Due to the later pickup time, it got dark about an hour before we reached the arctic circle. This was disappointing because we could no longer see the scenery. -The van was uncomfortable for the length of the trip, especially if you were stuck in the middle with no window seat. -The drive back was pretty brutal. Yes, we saw the lights, but had little time to enjoy them. It was dark, so you couldn’t view any other scenery. It was late and we were sooo tired, but could not get good sleep on the van. If I had this to do over, I would book separate tours to view the arctic circle and northern lights. I would book a daytime tour for the arctic circle that leaves early in the morning so as to fully enjoy the scenery on the way there and the way back. I would book a separate lights chasing tour that didn’t go so far so you have more time to view them.

1.00I thought this was going to be on a tour bus or a shuttle. It was a van. I had to sit in last row in very back. Ride was very rough. My head hit the ceiling 3 times along the ride. It was a very rough 12 hours. I would not recommend for an older person. Took me a couple days to recover.
