Day 2 : Anchorage - Seward

After breakfast, pick up your rental car and drive to Seward.

Getting to Seward is an experience in and of itself. The Seward Highway National Scenic Byway and All-American Road start here, and the drive from Anchorage is sure to be a highlight of your trip. 

Located just 120 miles south of Anchorage at the end of the Seward Highway All American Road, Seward is the perfect destination to enjoy all that Alaska has to offer. This picturesque seaside village presents stunning vantages of rugged mountain peaks, deep blue expanses of sea and sky and dense forests home to resident wildlife.

Day 3 : Seward

After breakfast, embark on a cruise to the Kenai Fjords National Park.

Alaska’s Kenai Fjords National Park is named after its numerous glacial-carved fjords—beautiful ice valleys that sit below sea level. The fjords run down the mountains into the iconic Harding Icefield, one of the largest ice fields in the United States with 40 tidewater glaciers flowing into it. The stunning landscape is also a wildlife-watcher’s dream, thanks to its abundant marine animals, birds, and other native wildlife. 

Explore the pristine waters of Resurrection Bay on this 6-hour Kenai Fjords cruise. Travel 55 miles (round-trip) along a rugged coastline and admire alpine glaciers nestled high in the mountains. Snap plenty of memorable photos as you sail past Bear Glacier and stop close to sea lion colonies and seabird rookeries. Along the way, keep watch for whales, sea otters, Dall’s porpoises, eagles and mountain goats.

Day 4 : Seward - Talkeetna

This charming pioneer town, with its own-block-long Main Street, is halfway between Anchorage to Denali and offers tons of adventures as well as great views of Mt. McKinley (it’s actually closer to the mountain than Denali’s Park entrance is). Talkeetna also has outstanding panoramic views of the Alaska Range that can be enjoyed and photographed from several spots as you wander through the town.

Denali National Park and Preserve is located in Interior Alaska, centered on Denali, the highest mountain in North America. The towering granite spires and snowy summits straddles 160 miles of the Alaska Range and displays so much elevation, they are often lost in the clouds. The landscape is a mix of forest at the lowest elevations, including deciduous taiga, with tundra at middle elevations, and glaciers, snow, and bare rock at the highest elevations.
