Northern Lights Tours and Lifetime Adventure from Anchorage

Overview

This tour only runs in the winter months from Sept 1st through April 15th. This trip will be focused on the Aurora Borealis aka Northern Lights. It offers some of the most amazing views that Mother Nature offers. There is no disappointments on this trip as you will return home with those ultimate memories and photographs of a lifetime! Our trips are not fast and quick as we love watching the lights too! Expect hours of fun, great conversation and learning how to photography the lights.

For photographing the Northern Lights we highly suggest a DSLR camera with a lens that is capable of at least a f/2.8 18-35mm and a decent tripod for best pictures. The Northern Lights can be photographed with smartphones as well. But know that due to taking a time exposure, your best results will be with a DSLR camera. It can be cold (below zero), so be sure to dress appropriately for the weather conditions and have an extra camera battery. The cold temperatures can drain a battery quickly.

Scott was awesome, he called me about four hours before we where suppose to go out. He told me the cloud coverage would make it almost hard to see the Aurora's so we rescheduled for the next night. So he picks me up at 7:30, and then the rest of the tour (2 more guys) as planned. We drive to five different spot, due to snow and clouds. Yet...the whole time, the entire group is talking about this and that... I was a fun group of people.

It was a fun night even while trying to dodge the clouds.

The trip was great but unfortunately the clouds were very visible and we did not get to see much of the northern lights but the driver Scott was great.

Thank you for your review. Nature will always do what it wants to do and there is nothing we can do about that. I always try my best and even with a Kp 5 index it still was a dud. Safe travels and I hope our paths cross again one day. Regards, Scott

Wonderful tour. We were picked up at our hotel and taken to a beautiful site at the top of a mountain. The tour guide had snacks and drinks and kept the vehicle running so we could stay warm. He provided helpful photography tips and fun facts about the lights and wildlife. I would 100% recommend this tour
