1.00The night we booked the tour had very dense freezing/ice fog in Fairbanks. Some spots feel like the visibility only 10 feet or less. It created an unsafe driving condition. This company's lodge is almost 40 minutes away. The tour should have been cancelled. Safety seems NOT on the top of this tour operator's list.
Fantastic Tour Ever

5.00I brought my husband and son to Alaska just for the Aurora Borealis. With no recommendations for a viewing site, I went searching for options. I landed on the Aurora Husky Lodge. We could not have done better. Picked up at our hotel, pleasant ride to the lodge where we found hot chocolate, coffee, tea and a warm fire inside. The proprietor was very knowledgeable, having done this for some 20 years. He started with a beautiful video that explained the Aurora and then showed us how to track the events on a great website. All of a sudden, he yells, "outside to the west". We all jumped out of our comfortable seats and went to a beautiful deck to see the dancing lights. It was minus 45 degrees outside so being able to walk back inside and view out the big wall of windows was amazing. I will recommend this experience to anyone who wants to see the Aurora Borealis in Alaska, in December! Host, his wife, facility, experience....all well worh it.

5.00The host, Michi is very friendly and professional. He took time to talk to each group and showed us how to take good quality of photos with our phones. He also let us know once there is a good Northern lights. The lodge is also warm and cozy with many seats to also watch the lights by windows. We had great time and would like to return when visiting Fairbanks next time.
Amazing experience!

5.00Mitchi is a great host! He is very knowledgeable and will look out for the aurora for you while you wait in his comfy rustic lodge enjoying hot drink and snacks. We had a great view of the aurora when compared to other spots that we went. Ask Mitchi to take you a professional photograph when the aurora is strong, it’s worth it when compared to the one we took with our phone. We are very happy with this tour and would strongly recommend it to anyone.

5.00We were so excited to discover that the owner and guide,Michi, is an award-winning musher. This was icing on the cake for an amazing Aurora viewing experience. The husky Lodge is cozy, with several decks for viewing. Communication about pick up time was excellent. We viewed a fascinating video about the northern lights while waiting. Michi monitored the data about when the lights would appear and kept us informed throughout the evening. It was a lovely and enchanting experience.
Very Great, Recommend to Everyone!

5.00This was the best tour we had in Alaska and definitely the best aurora tour. The lodge is at a perfect location for viewing aurora. Michi and his wife warmly welcomed us and prepared plenty of snacks and hot drinks in the lodge. Michi was very professional and knowledgeable about aurora viewing, constantly monitoring the activity and sharing interesting information. When the aurora suddenly became very strong, he called everyone outside in time so we could enjoy an amazing and unforgettable experience. It was so beautiful!
We had an amazing time at...

5.00We had an amazing time at the Aurora Husky Lodge! Michi is incredibly knowledgeable and truly passionate about showing guests the best possible Northern Lights, which we really appreciated. The lodge was super cozy, with displays from his days as a dog musher, and he even shared videos that helped us learn more about the aurora. The hospitality was outstanding. Highly recommended. Thanks Michi-san!
