Amazing experience, do it! - Such an amazing experience, would do it again immediately. Great for beginners and experienced riders who want to take in some of the back country. We were guided by Josh who was better than I could have imagined. Quite literally have nothing negative to say.

Thrilling Yet Safe - They were very professional from start to finish. All necessary gear and winter clothing were provided, and we received clear instructions before heading out. Our instructor was excellent—very professional, attentive, and made the experience fun for everyone. She ensured safety at all times, especially on narrow trails and turns, while also letting us enjoy the thrill of speeding on the straight paths. The balance between fun and safety was perfect, and everyone in the group felt comfortable throughout. The ride follows the instructor in a single line, and they regularly check on each participant during the trail. We were also taught simple hand signals to communicate if we were okay, having fun, or needed assistance, which added an extra layer of confidence. Overall, this was an amazing and well-organized experience that we would highly recommend.

Great first time snowmachine experience. - Adult family did the 1-hour snowmachine trip. The lodge outfits you with extra gear so you will stay warm and comfortable. We had gear but they added a second coat, fleece balaclava, and different boots. Great trip and guide. I was concerned that my glasses would fog but it was easy to partially open my visor and keep visibility. Made the experience comfortable for 1st time snowmachine operators and we also turned up the speed. Loved going slower through the narrow path in the woods. Just beautiful. Thanks for a fun time.

100/10!! - We joined the Aurora snowmobile tour on the 24th and had such an amazing experience from start to finish. Our guide, Rodney, was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many interesting stories about the northern lights and their dog sledding experiences, which made the whole trip even more special. At first, we didn’t see the aurora for about an hour, but around midnight it suddenly burst into the sky!! it was absolutely breathtaking and totally worth the wait. Rodney also helped us take lots of beautiful photos and made sure everyone was taken care of throughout the tour. Everything was thoughtfully organized, and the whole experience felt very warm and welcoming. Highly recommend!

Super fun night time activity. A must do, when in Fairbanks or North Pole! - We took the Aurora snowmobiling tour with Rodney last night. It was an exciting adventure through the woods and across open spaces. Rodney kept an eye on us and on the sky and found the most stunning light shows. He's super friendly and knowledgeable and for me, he felt like family.

Snowmobile adventure - It would have been nice to stop more than once or stop in a more scenic area rather than a narrow path. Otherwise, it was perfect-loved the chance to do a windy path plus go faster in an open area.
