We took the extended 3 night tour to Coldfoot, driving north on the Dalton Hwy across the Yukon River and the Arctic Circle and flying back to Fairbanks. This was truly the trip of a lifetime. Wonderful guides, comfortable accommodations. The beginning of the trip we stayed at the Springhill Suites in Fairbanks a very nice hotel. The drive up the Dalton was fun and was the main reason we chose this tour. After we got to Coldfoot we took 3 separate tours, a drive up into the Brooks Range, Aurora Borealis watching and dog sledding. Everybody was really nice. Only thing I could complain about were the 2 videos our driver from Fairbanks to Coldfoot made us watch. The other couple in the van were sleeping and my husband and I did not want the noise of a video and we even said something to the driver but she said 'I'll play it anyway'. I enjoyed the ruggedness of the road and seeing the real ice roads truckers and hearing their chatter on the CB radio. A great time!
