Why Go Private?

Most Fairbanks tours put you on a schedule built for forty people. A private Fairbanks tour is built for yours: leave when you're ready, stay longer where it's good, skip what isn't. With a maximum of four guests in the standard vehicle, there's room for questions, detours and a proper look at the city.

It's also the easiest way to connect the dots between the Fairbanks attractions and things to do we write about — the Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitors Center, Alaskaland (formerly Pioneer Park), the University of Alaska Museum of the North and a local restaurant stop all fit naturally into one day of Fairbanks sightseeing.
