Chena River Guided Raft Float in Fairbanks
Escape the crowds with a peaceful four-hour guided raft float through the heart of Fairbanks. Starting at Graehl Park, guests can enjoy gentle river views while a local guide shares stories about Alaska’s history, culture, wildlife and everyday life in the Interior.
Drift past riverfront homes, historic properties and iconic Fairbanks sights while watching for ducks, geese, beavers, muskrats and occasional moose. The journey also passes the famous Riverboat Discovery, offering a unique perspective of the city from the water.
Guests can choose an optional stop at the Boatel Bar for around 45 minutes, where drinks are available for purchase. Those who prefer to continue relaxing can remain by the river before the raft resumes its scenic journey downstream toward the historic Pump House area.
The experience ends near the Pump House Restaurant, where guests can enjoy a group photo before choosing complimentary transportation back to their hotel or pickup location. Alternatively, guests can stay for dinner at their own expense. Life jackets, bottled water and snacks are provided, while the tour operates rain or shine.
