This trip was fantastic.
It's a long trip, so you need to be prepared to spend 10-12 hours in a van. Our driver was Dave. He was knowledgeable, funny, and kind. He was also very safe, which I appreciated from the back row in the van.
He made multiple stops on the way up to the Arctic Circle so we could stretch our legs and see what there was to see. We hit the Hill Top stop, which had great apple pie, we hit the Yukon rest stop, which had a diner, we pulled off to see the pipeline, and we pulled out at different points to enjoy the beauty of Alaska at night. Dave was able to share some history and trivia with us.
We hung out at the Arctic Circle for a bit and Dave helpfully lined up the van headlights to illuminate the sign so we could take pictures.
We were a little disappointed when we left the Arctic Circle around 9:30 pm because despite a clear sky, no sign of the Aurora. However, part way back on our trip Dave spotted the sky lighting up and pulled off the road so we could take pictures. We made multiple stops on the way back, enjoying the uniqueness of the Northern Lights.
I would highly recommend this trip, specially with Tour Guide Dave.
