Pros: A fun way to see and learn about Fairbanks and the Athabascan Indians. Cons: This is a commercial enterprise - I didn't want to buy their salmon!
On our recent vacation to Alaska, Mr. Worm and I took a tour on the Riverboat Discovery in Fairbanks. This tour was a great way to learn about the way of life in Fairbanks and about the Athabaskan Indians that live in the area. To be honest,...
Pros: Dog mushing, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, ice carving. Cons: COLD, no shopping choices, nothing to do. No mountains.
We live 20 miles north of Anchorage, and have visited Fairbanks enough times for me to give a fair review of the city. Unfortunately, I do not like Fairbanks at all, and unless you are really an outdoorsman I believe you will find it quite boring. ...
Pros: ??? I'm still trying to think of one... Cons: No mountains, No glaciers, and No sights to speak of.
Review Topic: Sights & Attractions
The Alaskan Cruiseline advertisements and nature shows were largely my frame of reference as to what I thought Alaska would be like before actually going there. Fairbanks didn't live up to...
Pros: fairbanks is the gateway to the interior. Cons: fairbanks itself is kind of a drag in the winter.

Pros: summers are outstanding, winters a unique experience Cons: People of Fairbanks are unfriendly in general
Fairbanks is a truly unique town, and that is what makes it worth visiting, but I would hate to take a honeymoon or other trip here if I had high expectations.
I lived in Fairbanks for 5 years while attending the University there, which is...
Pros: you make your own Cons: lions and tigers, oh I mean bears and moose
Fairbanks, Alaska is like one of those movies you enjoy...after it's over. There is no denying the indescribable beauty of the various artforms of nature that surround this northern region of Alaska, however, after five years of living here, I'M READY...
Pros: Beautiful scenery, lots of wildlife, friendly people, many things to do Cons: Cold
Fairbanks is a wonderful city and the perfect place to base your trip in exploring Alaska. Right in the heart of the state, Fairbanks is equally "close" to everything you might want to travel to see. It is also one of the more modern Alaskan cities,...
There aren't any realy mountains to speak of in the near area, nor any glaciers, or snow covered hills (in summer), but you gotta make your own time here. My wife and I just returned yesterday from Alaska and we stayed in Fairbanks at a B&B and made ...
Pros: It's in Alaska, better than Anchorage, not too far from Chena Hot Springs Cons: It's Fairbanks: a small, flat, boring, congested city.
The best thing about Fairbanks is that from there you can drive to interesting places: Chena Hot Springs, Circle City, Coldfoot, Talkeetna, and points south (excluding Anchorage).
The first time I saw Fairbanks, the two rooms next to mine were...
What can I say about the Golden Heart City? Just that it holds true to it's name! I lived in a BIG city my whole life and one day had the opportunity to move over 6,000 miles and live in Fairbanks. I moved there in the dead of winter! (yep some sick...

Alaska home to the polar bear and the raven. Alaska is much more than a vacation spot for old folks. Alaska is a whole other world not damaged by industry or over population. You don't know what its like to live until you visited Fairbanks Alaska. ...
