Sky Party
About
A private Sky Party brings an expert guide and stargazing gear directly to your accommodation for an intimate, educational night under Alaska’s skies. Guides provide real-time aurora interpretation, identify constellations and celestial objects, and explain the science behind what you see. Telescopes are used when conditions permit, and guests receive tips for photographing the aurora with phones and cameras. The experience is relaxed and engaging, designed for families, small groups, and private gatherings—no buses, no crowds, just your group and the sky.
Highlights
- Private, on-site experience at your lodge, hotel, cabin, or Airbnb
- Educational focus on aurora science and night-sky interpretation
- Small-group, relaxed atmosphere with no crowds or buses
