Walk through Fairbanks’ birch forest with reindeer, learn from a lifelong Alaskan guide, and enjoy cookies and drinks afterward.

About this tour

Walk into Fairbanks’ birch forest with reindeer at your side on this four-hour guided nature experience. A lifelong Alaskan guide leads you through the taiga, sharing stories about the animals and the boreal forest as the reindeer leap and roam through the woods.

After a brief safety talk, follow the trail at a pace shaped by the season, trail conditions, and the reindeer’s moods. The changing landscape makes each Fairbanks reindeer walk its own experience. When the walk ends, settle in for homemade cookies and drinks, and keep the conversation going with your guide. In warmer seasons, you can also tour the farm’s organically grown perennial and vegetable gardens.

Round-trip transportation from your hotel is included, making it easy to reach the farm and focus on the forest, the animals, and the stories behind them. Reserve your Fairbanks reindeer walk and experience Alaska’s boreal landscape alongside its most memorable residents.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 4.17 from 6 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide 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 6.7.
