Itinerary
Detailed day by day information
Day 1: Anchorage
We'll transfer you to your downtown hotel, and then the rest of the day is free for exploring Alaska's largest city. Anchorage provides many opportunities for entertainment. It is home to Alaska's largest selection of quality Alaska Native art and souvenirs such as finely crafted ivory, Native masks, and carved jade. In addition, Anchorage has access to some of the freshest seafood in the world, which Alaska chefs offer up in a variety of mouth-watering creations. From plump, cold-water Kachemak Bay oysters, to Alaska king crab, fresh-caught halibut, and wild Alaska salmon – the staple of Alaska seafood, Anchorage has it all! And no sales tax!

Day 2: Anchorage - Denali
This morning transfer to the rail station, and board the glass-domed railcars of the McKinley Explorer for your journey to Denali. With six million acres, Denali National Park & Preserve is larger than Massachusetts. Located in the heart of Alaska’s magnificent and rugged interior, the park is home to majestic Mt. McKinley, North America’s highest mountain. The Park also features glaciers, a sub-arctic ecosystem and an internationally designated biosphere preserve with moose, caribou, Dall sheep, grizzly bears and wolves. After arriving and transferring to your hotel, you'll have time to explore this beautiful area, and perhaps choose from our many optional tours, such as flightseeing or horseback riding.

Day 3: Denali
This morning, get a deeper understanding of one of North America's most remarkable national parks on the Natural History Tour. You'll marvel at Denali's awesome beauty, and hear colorful stories about the area's cultural and geological history. This afternoon you're on your own; perhaps you'll choose one of the park-sponsored activities.

Day 4: Denali - Anchorage
Enjoy your last morning in Denali, then board your deluxe motor coach for your scenic drive back to Anchorage.

Day 5: Anchorage - Seward

Kenai Fjords National Park has abundant marine life and is a must for those interested in glacier viewing, whale watching, Alaska bird watching, and wildlife viewing.
