Review:
Located in the far north of Alaska, around 6 hours from Anchorage, Fairbanks is a very special place to visit. This is one of the best places on the planet to see the Northern Lights and to experience unbelievable sunrises and sunsets. In addition, Fairbanks is home to much natural beauty and is one of the last places where visitors can experience the peace and solitude of a true wilderness. However, if you are more interested in arts and culture activities, you will also find them here. The Aurora Season lasts from late August to April, when long nights give rise to dark, clear skies. If you visit in summer (April to August) you can enjoy almost 24 hours of daily sunshine.
