Your Alaska cruise ship

In Anchorage we will stay at the Hotel Captain Cook or the Clarion Suites Downtown Anchorage. Our hotel in Talkeetna is Talkketna Alaskan Lodge, and in Denali we will stay at the McKinley Village Lodge.

 

Into Alaska

 

We will travel by private transfer from Whittier to Alaska to Talkeetna, with many stops along the way. We will stay in Talkeetna for 2 nights before taking the bus to Denali (Denali trip separate, see below). While in Talkeetna we can visit sled dogs, river raft, take a flight, hike, or go fishing. We can tailor our excursions to your interests.

 

 

 

The fjords of Ketchikan

Optional side trip to Denali (additional costs apply, call for details)

In Denali, we will enjoy 2 nights at McKinley Village, which is located one mile from the Denaili park entrance. On our first morning in Denali, we will enjoy a multi-stop tour into Denali park, but the highlight will be the 2-hour stop at the North Face Lodge for lunch and activities (all included in your tour). This will be a full day of activities before you return to your lodge for the evening meal.

 

We will return to Anchorage by train (Gold Class). After one night in Anchorage, you will be picked up by private van to be taken to Seward for your cruise tour on a catermaran to Kenai Fjords, an absolutely beautiful trip!

 

After your cruise tour, you will board the train for your ride back to Anchorage for the evening. Some will return home the next evening, and others may stay another night. You choose your return time.
