We had a wonderful time! Quentin did a fantastic job keeping us safe and was very knowledgeable. He helped us get an awesome pic by light painting us as we took each other’s photo! We also had an amazing show of dancing auroras and couldn’t be happier 💖 Would highly recommend booking with them!

Wonderful opportunity to learn about Alaskan heritage and wildlife. Visiting the university, where one of the museums is located, is an interesting experience. If you are lucky you will get to see a moose!

Savvy was a great guide! We learned many new things about Alaska and Fairbanks. We also got to see a baby bull moose! We could tell she really enjoyed her job. We had fun! Highly recommend! Ask for Savvy!

Savvy took us on a spectacular Fairbanks Heritage tour on a gorgeous February day. So knowledgeable about the whole area, and very personable and fun guide for our intro to the Golden Heart of Alaska.
