About us

At 1st Alaska Tours, we strive to open Alaska’s nature and beauty to all Alaska visitors. Our Alaska experts have designed fun, interesting, and educational Alaska sightseeing tours just for you.

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.

What we'll do

This is the combination of a Northern Lights tour, Dog Sledding, and the experience of our home-cooked dinner many of our guests asked us to design into one tour.

Your Aurora Dinner Dog Sled Tour begins right at your Fairbanks hotel, so you don’t need to plan how to get to us and you will save additional taxi costs.

Upon arrival at our kennel, the huskies will be ready and waiting for you to bundle up and climb into the sled.

The experience of starlight and moonlight reflecting off the snow while gliding down the silent trail is magical.

Most of the night ride is in an open area, so should the Aurora start early you will have a thrilling view of the sky from the dog sled.

Back at the yurt, our home-cooked dinner will be served while we wait for the Northern Lights to put on their show.

Once the Aurora is out you can enjoy it right from inside the yurt or our spacious outdoor viewing area.

A variety of entertainment is in place for your enjoyment while waiting for the Aurora to dance.

DVDs featuring fascinating videos and information on the Aurora Borealis and Dog Mushing are available for viewing.

Please note we have a per-person weight maximum of 250 pounds for dog sledding.
