Seeing the Northern Lights was beautiful! Our tour guide, Elijah, was phenomenal. He was very personable and did a wonderful job. He knew a great spot to see the lights and was a great driver, as well. I would definitely recommend taking a tour with Elijah.

To start, Joe was an amazing guide! He was very knowledgeable about the area and the hot springs and had very interesting and humorous stories along with telling the history of the area. The hot springs resort was okay. The hot springs themselves provided a really nice and relaxing soak. The restaurant on the premises left a lot to be desired. Seemed like there wasn't enough staff to serve the many people that were waiting for hours to sit and eat at the only restaurant at the hot springs. Tables were empty and they still had people waiting for long periods of time. I don't let that diminish the otherwise great experience we had with Joe and the trip overall. Joe was also really helpful showing us how to spot the northern lights. Thanks Joe!

The rock pond was enjoyable. The locker room was cramped, dirty and lacked basic amenities. The ice house was interesting with some beautiful carvings but not all that much to see.

Our tour guide Ash was amazing. He is a true Alaskan with such an interesting life and wonderful stories.
We did not realize the hot springs didn’t allow under 18 so that was a bummer but the ice museum was really fun and Ash made a little extra stop at a river bend (since we were really ahead of schedule).

Went to the chena hot springs and aurora ice museum with my mom for her birthday, and it was a fun and eclectic time! Our guide, Paul, was a hoot and made sure everyone felt comfortable. Also, he never made it feel like we were asking stupid questions as he gave commentary throughout the tour. The ice museum was one I’ll never forget, and the hot springs were so relaxing that I am now jelly. The restaurant on site was also spectacular. All the vegetables are grown on site and you can tell. Plus my mom never had a drink as good as the raspberry colada!
