This is the longest-running northern lights photo tour in the Anchorage area. Highlighted by Iceland Air's Stopover magazine as one of Anchorage's "Hidden Hot Spots" in its Spring 2019 issue (page 64), this tour is designed to maximize fun and opportunity with the aurora borealis.

We provide a free 3-day forecast service that includes both the aurora borealis and weather forecast. This tour increases your chance of aurora viewing success by allowing you to reserve as many nights as you like [space available] and only finalizing payment 48 hours in advance under the Reserve Now & Pay Later system. We pick you up at your accommodations and take you on a nocturnal adventure to witness the magical lights rippling over snowy peaks and dancing across dark waters. It's a great option for business travelers to Alaska during August to early May. This tour accommodates serious photographers to sightseers. Photographic instruction and aurora portraits are provided for those who desire.

Ronnie was an exceptional guide. He went above and beyond with helping other guests capture the lights. He helped set up my camera to ensure I was able to capture every moment. Such an amazing experience!

10/10 BOOK AND YOU WON"T REGRET! Our guide was very knowledgeable and got s amazing pictures! We were a reschedule due to the weather and was actually the only couple in our tour. Our train was delayed an hour due to weather and he was very accommodating. We were exhausted but it was so rewarding in the end!

Ben was our tour guide. And man were we lucky to have him. Smart, funny, and very knowledgeable about the area. He worked extra hard to put us in position so I could get my shot. Thanks again, Ben!

On a cold late night, venture out with a great tour guide to catch a glimpse of the Aurora. Gorgeous
A little and short Aurora Quest-Northern Light show

Not a lot of Aurora Quest-Norther lights that night, I guess it’s not a good time to watch but anyway at least it’s show a little but too short like 1-2 mins only, the tour guide tried on other stop but nothing so all the tourist are decided to go back because we’re all sleepy it’s already 3:30 am. The tour guide is so nice but we’re not lucky to see the good Northern lights maybe we’re going to try in Fairbank next time.
