At approximately 11:00 PM as you are returning to Fairbanks the tour will stop at the Arctic Circle Trading Post, those on the Arctic Circle Aurora Fly/Drive will depart the tour and meet a new guide who will stay out later and longer with them to look for the Aurora. Those on the Arctic Circle Winter Fly/Drive Adventure Southbound will continue back to Fairbanks.

It is important to know the Arctic Circle Winter Fly/Drive is NOT an Aurora Adventure. It will not make intentional stops to wait, watch, and see if the lights will come out nor does it stay out during the peak activity time of the Aurora. If the lights are out during the tour and the guide has a safe place to stop off the road they will; however, it is important to understand the intent of the Winter Fly/Drive is not to wait out and look for the Aurora.
