Our tour offers a thrilling and immersive winter experience right outside of Fairbanks. Unlike typical sightseeing, you'll actively explore Alaska’s pristine backcountry by snowmobile, guided by a local expert who will first teach you how to safely operate your machine. Then, you're off to ride through a breathtaking winter wonderland—crossing frozen rivers and lakes, weaving through snow-covered trails, and taking in the stunning mountain scenery around the Chena Lakes Recreation Area near North Pole, Alaska. It's an unforgettable adventure you won't find anywhere else.

Tyler was truly excellent; he explained everything to us and helped us throughout the entire process, taking videos and photos. He was patient, kind, and professional – we couldn't have asked for anything better.

We had a really fun time doing snow mobiling with friends. It is an excellent experience. The entire staff, Kathy who led the experience and the support staff who helped us with equipment were excellent and really friendly! The staff was super accommodating and really took care of us from making sure we were warm, had our pictures taken and were safe during the experience. We were also provided with additional warm clothing. They also gave us drinks later. I would highly recommend them for the snow mobile experience !
