Reisroute
Als uw startpunt voor uw tour, Fairbanks stelt ons in voor succes in het ervaren van het noorderlicht, ongeacht de nautische richting die we reizen vanuit de stad. Of we nu naar het westen, noorden of oosten reizen, we vinden uitstekende uitkijkpunten weg van drukte en stadslichten. Terwijl we het noorderlicht achtervolgen, wordt het duidelijk waarom Fairbanks en Interior Alaska een van de beste plaatsen ter wereld is om het noorderlicht te ervaren! Fairbanks ligt op 65° noorderbreedte en bevindt zich op een zeer bijzondere geografische locatie : direct onder het noordelijke noorderovaal. De aurorale ovalen zijn ringvormige zones rond elk van de magnetische polen van de aarde waar de Aurora Borealis en Aurora Australis voorkomen. In Alaska en op alle poolbreedtes op het noordelijk halfrond hebben we de mogelijkheid om de Aurora Borealis te zien, een spectaculair en fascinerend fenomeen dat mogelijk zichtbaar is op elke heldere nacht.
De Parks Highway ontspringt ten westen van Fairbanks en is de belangrijkste verkeersader tussen Fairbanks en Anchorage. Langs de Parken liggen een aantal prachtige uitzichtpunten die geschikt zijn om aurora te bekijken. Op nachten waar de noordelijke omstandigheden niet gunstig zijn, kunnen we westwaarts gaan richting de kleine gemeenschap van Healy, net buiten Denali National Park.
Ten noorden van Fairbanks ligt de Elliott Highway, die ongeveer 70 mijl overspant voordat hij de beruchte Dalton Highway bereikt. Langs deze afgelegen weg zijn tal van uitstekende aurora kijklocaties waar andere aurora chasers zelden worden gespot. Vanwege de afgelegen ligging van de Elliott en het frequente open uitzicht op de noordelijke hemel, is het een favoriete route voor uw tochten.
De Richardson Highway verbindt Fairbanks met de beroemde Alaska Highway voordat het naar het zuiden steekt bij de stad Delta Junction, waar het verder naar het zuiden gaat en al snel de Alaska Range binnenkomt. Langs de Richardson zijn tal van uitstekende uitzichtsgebieden, van wijd open meren tot vergezichten over de Alaska Range. Dit is een voorkeursroute wanneer het weer naar het noorden onbetaalbaar is en wanneer het weer in de richting van de Richardson gunstig is.

My tour with Far Notth Aurora Tours was the highlight of my trip. Riley took me to beautiful locations away from crowds so we could focus on photographing the amazing light display. I also learned about the science of the Aurora and photography skills. Thanks Riley! I'll definitely book again on my next trip to Alaska.
Absolutely LOVED going out with Riley to hunt down the Aurora! We were super lucky to experience a geomagnetic storm and the WHOLE SKY lit up! Riley was able to snap some shots of us and sent them to us after! Riley took us to a secluded spot and provided up with delicious snacks and warm drinks! He shared loads of information about the Aurora and was a lovely bloke! Thanks again for a great experience! 5 ⭐️ Super stoked we chose is tour - won’t forget this experience!
Great experience and our guide did wonderful job on this Aurora tour. Great knowledge of aurora and locations to get great photographs. Would highly recommend our guide, Riley, as he has terrific passion for Aurora photography.
Our guide Riley shared his passion and knowledge of the auroa borealis on a tour north of Fairbanks. On a cold night we were fortunate to see the northern lights progressing from north to south over 4 hours. Riley was a great guide and highly recommended
We had a great experience on Riley’s tour. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the aurora, and on a night where clouds were in the forecast, he took us to a remote location where we could find clear skies. Would highly recommend!
Great experience and worth it after you get the pics! The added bonus is the professional photography to commemorate the experience! Very knowledgeable and loved the extra touch with trying spring water, heat hand and toe warmers and snacks with water,coffee, and or tea. Had a blast and got to experience the northern lights in various phases!
I would give this tour 5 stars on communications alone. Riley pro-actively reached out to me about weather concerns a few days before the scheduled tour day, and was able to change the date. The weather had mostly cleared, but it was unbelievably cold (-18 F/-28 C), and I was glad I had rented arctic wear. We had to drive a quite a ways before getting to a good viewing area, but the ride was comfortable and Riley made good conversation so the time did not drag. He had an interesting presentation prepared, but I had seen the aurora show at the Museum of the North so it was not really needed. He also had a good camera and shared his photos, so I was able to enjoy the lights without fussing with my phone. I’d especially recommend for single travelers.
I rarely write reviews so that should say the first thing about this one and how great our experience has been with Riley. The experience was more like going out with a friend who’s looking to show you the best time and while sharing his expertise whether you're just going to see the Aurora or in my case, taking the best photos. Riley was extremely attentive to what I was looking to do with photography while appreciating his deep knowledge of Aurora tracking and science to fill in the times when we were waiting in his warm vehicle for the Northern Lights to appear. He came with snacks and hot beverages and had extra gear in case we came ill-prepared. He kept up on his research in real time on where to go to view the Aurora and were treated to an amazing location where we were lucky enough to catch 3 storms even though there's no guarantee what Mother Nature might show. And while we did not expect this, he took amazing personal photos taken from his professional camera that night (while we were doing our thing) with some awesome shots of the Aurora that he sent the very next day. The “experience” was very personalized as he normally takes only a couple folks out at a time and did not hesitate to drive long distances as needed to capture the Aurora. I wouldn't hesitate to book him again and would plan future trips to Alaska with him in mind especially if you’re looking to add photography on top of viewing the Aurora.
