The Arctic Circle has always been on my bucket list and this was the best way to get there. Our driver, Alan, was fantastic! He was very kind, friendly, professional, and a great driver. Although the drive is long, we had many stops along the way and the van was comfortable which makes all the difference. Having a great driver and guide like Alan was very important. He shared stories and provided information, answered all our questions, and stopped at several interesting sights including the Alaskan Pipeline, the Ghost Forest of trees, and the Dalton Highway sign.
We arrived at the Arctic Circle, took pictures, and got our bragging rights certificate. We had a delicious dinner and a remote outpost next to the Yukon river, and luckily, we were also able to see the Aurora! Alan took great care and pride in finding the Aurora for us and took lots of pictures for us. He was GREAT!!
