About this tour
Spend an evening dining beneath the Alaskan sky, then settle in for a chance to see the aurora. This self-drive experience pairs a three-course dinner at Latitude 65 with a relaxed wait at the property’s lounge.
Meet at the Front Desk Yurt on Himalaya Road 15 minutes before your activity; the drive to basecamp can take up to an hour. Dinner reservations begin at 8:00 p.m. and include soup or salad, a steak or chicken entree, and dessert. Alcohol, appetizers, and other add-ons are available for purchase. While you wait, enjoy the lounge and free Wi-Fi. At 10:00 p.m., staff present the science and folklore of the northern lights. If the aurora appears, they’ll let you know where to look. An optional photography session costs $60 per person.
Plan your own drive in a 4WD vehicle with winter tires, and make an evening of dinner, stories, and sky watching. The yurt closes at 2:00 a.m.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Fairbanks
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.0.
