Alaska & the Yukon - Insight Cruises

arctic adventures
Discovery III, Fairbanks
Fairbanks
Work up an appetite panning for your keepsake of gold. Afterwards,
savor a hearty miner’s stew at the authentic Gold Dredge No. 8,
restored by Holland America Line and listed on the Register of
National Historic Sites. Then sail aboard the sternwheeler riverboat
Discovery III to visit with a native beadwork artist and meet Susan
Butcher, four-time Iditarod champion, and her famous sled dogs.
Fairbanks is also the starting point for optional adventures that
spotlight the rugged beauty and native culture of the Far North while
you are inducted into the Arctic Circle Club — complete with Arctic
Circle Certificate. Choose our Fort Yukon Arctic Circle flightseeing
excursion or our Anaktuvuk Pass Flight Adventure and include this
unique experience in your collection of travel achievements.
