The several Midnight Sun Express tours begin in either Anchorage or Fairbanks, Alaska and run anywhere from two to six days. There are also several extra excursions on day trips that you can add to your trip, such as river rafting and a wildlife bus tour in a national park. You'll get to travel in the ultra dome train, cars with glass domes to maximize your viewing of the breathtaking scenery.
The glass domes of the Midnight Sun Express offer incredible views of glaciers and snow covered mountains. If you're planning on visiting Alaska, a train is a great way to travel. The train provides comfortable travel while featuring 180 degree views. You'll get great photo opportunities right from the comfort of your train car.
Some of the Midnight Sun Express trains cars offer open-air viewing platforms. You'll be able to move freely throughout the train, so you're never stuck sitting. The trips have several stops and not all stays are on the train. Each tour package can be customized to meet your needs, affording you the opportunity to experience Alaska your way.
