Visit the Arctic Circle

“It did not damper our mood too much- our first time in the arctic circle. [...] The taxi ended up being a vw bus with a total party theme inside- not what we were expecting our first experience of the north to be. [...] It was an amazing night. We were able to see the northern lights in full affect. The sky that night left all in awe. [...] It was -25C that night and after 4 hours on top of the mountain I was already about ice [...] Nick and I tried our best to run back but it felt more like running on pegs our ice cubes because we could not feel anything from the calf down.”

“Okay, time to go over our exhilarating day tour! We did the Arctic Circle Aurora Fly/Drive Adventure which started at 11:30 AM [...] The trip was a LONG but a very rewarding day. [...] We departed at around 1:00 PM and enjoyed the scenic 60-minute flight over historic gold settlements and remote communities, the Yukon River, the Arctic Circle, and the mighty, majestic Brooks Mountain Range! Our pilot was great, he would announce when we were passing over any point of interest and we were lucky on to have a really clear day witnessing the snow-covered mountains and remote Alaska wilderness from above! [...] We made it! We arrived at the Arctic Circle at 66°33′50.2″ north of the Equator! [...] So what is there to do at the Arctic Circle? Well, take a photo with a sign of course! Stretch your legs and maybe see a few cute Arctic birds flying from limb to limb in the spruce trees (or land on one of your limbs!).”
