Arctic Tour - Nome One Day Tour from Anchorage
Alaskan day tours
Alaska Native Heritage Center
Just outside Nome, AK
Nome, situated on the Seward Peninsula by the Bering Sea, is rich in colorful Gold Rush history, and is home to the world's longest dog sled race. The Iditarod commemorates the heroic attempts of dog sled teams to deliver serum to Nome during the diphtheria epidemic of 1924. Have your camera ready as you pull into a dog musher's camp, where you'll experience firsthand the difficulty of dog racing. During your visit to Little Creek Mine, you'll be greeted by a gold miner's family and learn about the gold strike of the 1890's. See modern day prospectors looking for the big strike and try your own luck at panning for gold-what you find, you keep. Shoppers and collectors will find exquisite jade, hand-carved ivory and skin sewings here.
