Transferring to the railroad station, we will reboard the Midnight Sun for a four hour trip through ever changing landscape to Fairbanks. Along the way, you can enjoy a gourmet meal for a reasonable price in the dining car while enjoying the view. At 8am on Wednesday, we will take the River boat Discovery on one of the best tours we have ever seen. Traveling down the Chena river, the Discovery, a stern wheel river boat, will provide an interpretive insight into the rich history of this area from early Native Indians to the strong settlers who tamed this rugged land. Along the way you will meet some of these noted people, such as Susan Butcher, of Iditarod fame, as well as visit an authentic native fishing village.
