Ice Museum, Hot Springs and Northern Lights

After arriving at the resort, the tour begins with a visit to the Fairbanks Ice Museum to see beautiful ice sculptures and carvings by world champions. The evening will continue with a soak in the famous hot springs, which have been compared to those found in the Czech Republic. The healing and relieving of conditions such as circulatory disorders and rheumatism has been traced back to the 1900’s and continue to benefit each visitor to this day. Of course, no Alaskan adventure would be complete without experiencing the Northern Lights, also known as Aurora Borealis. Throughout your stay at the resort, these famous phenomena will be a highlight of your Alaskan experience (aurora activity depending). The drive back will provide yet another opportunity to capture these breathtaking Aurora dancing across the sky and a perfect ending to a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
