Our history
GoNorth celebrated their 20th anniversary in 2020.
Founded in 2000, we originally offered guided river trips in the Far North, hiking tours across Alaska, and custom-tailored road trip packages in Alaska and Yukon.
Early on we expanded by offering truck camper rentals to allow our clients to explore Alaska’s rugged gravel roads at their own pace, find the most beautiful natural settings away from the busier main highways.
We now offer an extensive fleet of truck campers, motorhomes, and SUVs, as well as an ever-growing Travel Center which organizes all parts of your vacation in Alaska and Yukon.
With rental stations in Anchorage AK, Fairbanks AK, Whitehorse YT, Algona Seattle WA we offer one-way rentals between all of our station, allowing the customers to include more destinations in their visit to this great land.
