Alaska Highlights
-
Denali National Park
Denali attracts more visitors in it's 114 day season than the entire state has in residents. The park's shuttle-bus service gives easy viewing of the spectacular scenery as well as the plentiful wildlife. The park's centre piece is North America's highest peak, the majestic 20320 feet Mt. McKinley. What makes this mountain so awesome is that it rises from an elevation of only 2000 feet, thus one sees 18000 foot - more than 3 miles - of sheer rock, snow, and glaciers soaring into the sky. -
Kenai Fjords National Park
Setting sail from the town of Seward everyone can view the breathtaking beauty of the glaciers and silver/blue icebergs which dot the fjords. The thrill of seeing your first whale close up is a sight that you will never forget. Watch these creatures, in silent wonder as their tails rise into the air and disappear beneath the surface of the near freezing water. The sheer abundance of porpoises, seals, whales, and seabirds will keep camera shutters clicking and heads turning as you absorb the experience. -
Anchorage
Skyscrapers and pinnacles of glass and steel flash against nature's backdrop, the Chugach Mountains. Relentless urban development in the wilderness of Alaska is not what tourists expect, and anybody living outside of Anchorage will agree with you. Half of Alaska's population lives here, 276,000, and claim there is no other city like it in the world! Oil is still the number one business in town and money from the oil boom of the 70's has provided financing for the building and all the comforts and attractions of a large US city.

What our clients are saying
The Klondike trip was AWESOME!! River rafting, canoeing, ice climbing and hiking are just some of the best activities out of a superb itinerary. There was no day without
Patrik, Switzerlandseeing deer, bears, eagles, or moose, fantastic views and breathtaking moments.
Three days into my Alaskan Kenai trek and I was already seeing a world that backpacking independently would have failed to deliver. The remote sights and trails were not mentioned in any of my guide books.
Paul, EnglandAnd for the remaining days we did everything from climbing mountain ranges to canoeing.
