About us
Alaska is best discovered with the assistance of local guides. Our friendly knowledgeable guides share the beauty, history, and resources of Interior Alaska on every tour.
There are many sightseeing opportunities to choose from when visiting Alaska. Our adventures range from driving the famous Dalton Highway to the Arctic Circle to enjoying a relaxing soak in Chena Hot Springs to riding in a sled pulled by a dog team.
Once the land of the midnight sun begins to darken, we are able to take delight in the dancing northern lights once again. 1st Alaska Tours specializes in Aurora Borealis viewing opportunities and provides guests with premier viewing locations. Knowing this is a bucket list item for many people, we offer aurora tours that include photography lessons, dinner, and even dog sledding.
In addition to providing top-notch Alaska sightseeing tours in the Fairbanks region, we can also book accommodations in Fairbanks and schedule activities in the Denali area.
1st Alaska Tours is truly Fairbanks’ one-stop shop for experiencing Interior Alaska.
