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.

We went to see the Northern Lights on Sept 18, 2021 but there was no Northern Lights. We spent $550 to see nothing but a full moon and stars. Our friends who came here 2 weeks ago said the same thing that there was no Northern Lights and only in the month of March - May when there is Northern Lights. Why the agency like Viator sells Northern Lights tour if there’s no Northern Lights?

I booked this tour with Scott and it was an amazing experience. Scott is a friendly and knowledgeable man about not only the northern lights but all of Alaska in general. Of course the northern lights are never guaranteed but we chose a day where our chances of viewing them were high and sure enough on the way to the final destination we got glimpses along the way. I saw the Milky Way and shooting stars. Then after watching the clear sky for a bit the lights came out and were dancing in the sky!! It was a great experience and truly breathtaking! Thank you Scott for being such an amazing tour guide, I hope to see you in the future 😊
