Alaska Photo Treks

Was a good trip with friendly guide
Apr 7th, 2024

One of the reasons my friends and I wanted to travel to Alaska was to see the aurora! Going with Alaska Photo Treks was a good decision as Ben and Chad, the tour guides, were very enthusiastic about teaching us the science behind the northern lights. They also gave helpful tips on how to photograph them. The Alaska Photo Treks team is also honest about the tour - they do caution you about the weather and the possibility of viewing the auroras. They also allow you to choose other days if you wish to the tour later. 10/10 would recommend. This is what our group saw on march 21st (see photo)

This tour was amazing. Chad was a great host and very knowledgeable on the auroras. Had a great time geeking out with him and chasing the auroras. This picture was taken with my iPhone. Also have a lot of great photos on my Nikon.

Wow! What an incredible night chasing the Northern Lights. Take the chance and book it! Ask for Ben a knowledgeable and attentive guide. Loved hearing his stories while we followed the ever changing flow of Aurora. You will enjoy it.

I was able to do both a day and night tour with this professional, and highly knowledgeable company. During the day I spent time with Carl, a military veteran, and learned several things about my cameras features and how to actual make the adjustments for the time of photos I personally would enjoy. Carl also was very knowledgeable about the Anchorage area and its history so we were able to capture some unique moments on the tour. The night tour was with Ben and Colin which are also both very personable and professional. They were able to manage a group of viewers, equipment, and keep everyone warm at -6 degrees F. There was a mix-up in my booking and it was fixed and I was refunded for the rental camera I was not able to use. My only other issues were the campiness and length spent in the vehicles. I do highly recommend working with this company because they do enjoy helping people make the most of the experience and opportunity to capture the truly beautiful and mystical environment of Anchorage, Alaska and the Northern Lights.
