The Arctic Circle Flight Adventure Tour gives you the best of both worlds. The tour departs in a small plane from Fairbanks and lands across the Arctic Circle. When you deplane, you can walk on the tundra and marvel at the treeless landscape. Once you get back on the plane for your return flight, you will see such memorable sites as the Arctic National Park, the Brooks Range and the Trans-Alaska Pipeline from the air.
If you are visiting Alaska, one thing that will strike you about the whole experience is how genuine both the people and the surroundings are. So, if you are thinking of purchasing a souvenir for yourself or a friend, you want to make sure that the item is just as genuine as the place it comes from. That is what makes the Knotty Shop so special. Not only do they offer an extensive selection of all-Alaskan made gifts, it is also a wildlife museum, a gun collection and ice cream shop all in one convenient and very entertaining place.
Primarily considered a locals bar, Fairbanks' Midnite Mine is a place to go if you just want to enjoy a few beers with friends in a nightlife venue that doesn't feature a big party atmosphere. Everyone pretty much keeps to themselves, so if you are out with a group of friends but want to keep a low-key, less noticeable profile, then Midnite Mine is the perfect destination. A great beer selection along with a bit of a ramshackle atmosphere are what you can expect.
