Are you wondering where to go for your holiday? Here are some reviews about Gondwana EcoTours Northern Lights Adventure for you to better assess.
Laura Thompson
I highly recommend Gondwana EcoTours Northern Lights Adventure. Our guides, David and Greg, arranged many interesting daytime activities-dog sledding, Chena Hot Springs, visits to cultural museums and a sustainable family farm. Their knowledge and passion for the area were influential. At night, our guide, Laurie, accompanied us whenever there was Aurora activity and helped with photography. Overall, a wonderful experience!
Scott Hockin
Wow, it might be a great experience. Group size was great, large enough for interactions (互动), small enough to not be lost in a crowd. Activities were fun and food was hearty and good. Great guides were personal and professional. But we were unable to keep us very warm and comfortable during the extreme cold. Think twice!
Mark
The Northern Lights tour was one of the best vacations ever. With the various things to see and do during the day, we kept busy and very interested in each item we saw. We were very fortunate to see the Northern Lights 5 days in a row—what a spectacular treat! All three guides were great. Highly recommend.
Michele Long
We had a wonderful week at The Taste of Alaska Lodge March 3-9!! Gondwana included everything to provide the Alaska winter experience: excellent guides & Aurora expert, Running Reindeer Ranch (牧场), Chena Hot Springs, dogsledding and more! Mother Nature provided a magnificent light show 3 nights. I enjoyed it so much that I’d book the trip again!
