Unfortunately, we didn’t see any Northern Lights on this tour, making it our second unsuccessful attempt. When comparing this tour to our previous one, the price differences became quite clear. One of the main issues we faced was the lack of communication from our tour guide; it was so cloudy that we were unsure if the tour was still happening or if we had the option to cancel. This uncertainty created a bit of stress as we waited for our pickup time. Once we arrived at Murphy Dome, we sat in the van (whereas other experiences I had, they had a campfire and chairs set up), hoping the clouds would clear. However, it was extremely cold (it was snowing!) and very windy, so keep that in mind when booking this tour during the winter season. While our guide was knowledgeable about Alaska and the Northern Lights, I would have loved to learn more about the science behind them. Additionally, if you're hard of hearing or prone to motion sickness, be sure to sit in the front, as the ride was very bumpy! Overall, while the experience had its challenges, I appreciated the effort, and it reminded us that Mother Nature can be unpredictable.

Hello, thank you for choosing Alaska Wildlife Guide for your tour. We never cancel tours for weather conditions as we cannot control the weather, and we remain as hopeful as our guests. Fairbanks is unique in the way that our weather will sometimes clear up in the middle of the night while the lights are on display, because we are in a valley, but we go out of town for viewing, and we do not want our guests to miss it on the chance that it does clear up. We do offer the most generous cancellation policy in Fairbanks, so we encourage our guests to check the weather frequently and proceed at their discretion. Murphy Dome is the same experience for all companies across the board. It is a famous location because it is expansive views of the sky, and you are able to view it from the comfort of your vehicle without freezing and can mingle with the other guests while waiting for the natural phenomenon to grace our presence.

The guide/driver was friendly and knowledgeable and explained well about Northern Lights. However, she couldn't control the weather.

We are happy you had a great guide, and unfortunately, we cannot control the weather, but our guides do their best to give our customers the best experience possible despite the weather. Fairbanks weather is unpredictable, and it is never guaranteed that we will be able to see the lights.
