We always like to take a city tour so we know where we want to go back to. This one was great for what we wanted - a bit of driving around and stops at a few places. Aaron, our guide, is a local and very informative about Fairbanks. There is not a lot of specific information on economics, history and statistics of Fairbanks but more aimed at seeing what's here with stops at various points of interest. The Visitors Center is well worth a visit - even has a variety of free movies about Alaska. We didn't have time to see a movie on the tour but went back later. The Museum of the North on the University of Alaska is fabulous also has films for a small charge and our visit for about 30 minutes was just a taste so we'll go back. We wanted to mail our Christmas cards from North Pole and Aaron very kindly took us to the Post Office there for a brief stop to do that. Santa Claus House is fun - it's a big gift shop but so interesting and the Santa there is great - his name is really Santa Claus - he'll show you his driver's license! Don't miss the Alaskan Bowl Factory - the work is beautiful!! A good afternoon.
