Fairbanks Day Tour

Learn about Fairbanks' gold rush history on this four-hour tour! Fairbanks owes its founding to the discovery of gold. Your driver-guide will bring those early days to life explaining the misadventures of one Capt. E.T. Barnette and how a rumor of gold actually panned out. Included is a stop at Gold Dredge No. 8, the historic structure that dug the river bedrock of Goldstream and Engineer Creeks for Alaskan miners right up until 1959.
