From the midnight sun to the northern lights, Fairbanks is bursting with energy and things to do. Known as the "Golden Heart of Alaska", Fairbanks is featured in most cross Gulf of Alaska cruise land tour options. Visitors in early to mid-summer can experience the midnight summer sun shining nearly 24 hours a day, while late summer and September guests have the opportunity to view the northern lights in one of the best locations in the world. Fairbanks is just two hours from Alaska's most popular destination, Denali National Park, and is also the basecamp to explore Alaska's majestic Arctic. This session will give an overview of all that Fairbanks has to offer as a destination that no visitor to Alaska should go without seeing.
