What To Expect

operated by: Heart of Alaska Tours
Embark on a breathtaking adventure Heart of Alaska tours will start pickups as early as 4:30 PM, with a scenic drive just over 60 miles, where you'll encounter the stunning natural beauty of the area. Along the way, keep an eye out for a possible moose sighting, adding to the excitement of your journey.

The first stop is the Ice Museum, the world’s first ice museum, where you’ll marvel at the intricately carved ice sculptures. For an extra treat, you can opt for an appletini (additional charge) served in an ice glass, making this experience even more unique.

Next, unwind and relax in the healing waters of the natural rock pool hot springs, a perfect way to soothe your body and soul.

To wrap up this unforgettable night, we’ll try to catch a glimpse of the magical Northern Lights, weather permitting, as we wait for Mother Nature to showcase her most mesmerizing light show. Don’t miss this extraordinary opportunity to soak in nature’s beauty and enjoy the wonders of the north!

At this time we are only recommending we attempt to go orders from there restaurant due to long wait times.
