Day 1-2
Anchorage
Arrive at Anchorage International Airport and transfer independently to your downtown hotel in Alaska’s largest city. A must-visit whilst in Anchorage is the Alaska Native Heritage Centre. Offering an in depth look at Alaska life with a big focus on Alaska Natives. Watch dancing, listen to stories, meet carvers, and hear from artists in an intimate setting.
Day 3-4
Talkeetna
This morning, collect your car as you make your way into the Mat-Su Valley to the quirky town of Talkeetna. Talkeetna has a long history with mountaineering as the jumping-off point for climbers hoping to summit Mt. Denali. Whilst in town you may wish to take a flightseeing tour to Mt. Denali with an optional glacier landing too. Talkeetna itself will offer some of the best views of Denali, on a good day you can view the mountain in its entirety from this funky hamlet.
Day 5-7
Denali National Park
In the heart of Alaska, Denali National Park encompasses six million acres of wild land, boasting magnificent wildlife, vast tundra and of course the towering Denali, which at 20,310 feet is the highest peak in North America. With incredible hiking within the park itself we recommend joining a local guide to provide knowledge on the geography, flora and fauna and some handy backcountry tips. Or for those less adventurous, take one of the popular Tundra Wilderness tours into the park itself to see its wildlife up close and learn more about the park’s history.
Day 8-10
Fairbanks
The next 2 days are yours to explore the 'Golden Heart City'. A visit to Pioneer Park offers a chance to experience interior Alaska 100 years ago. The historic village features original buildings moved from downtown Fairbanks. Be sure to hang around for the nightly salmon bake and dinner show introducing the colourful characters that came in search for gold. Just 15 minutes outside of Fairbanks lies the town of North Pole, Alaska. Drive streets such as Santa Claus Lane and Kris Kringle Drive lined with streetlights decorated in candy cane motifs. Visit the Santa Claus House for Christmas ornaments and to send personalised Santa letters and gifts mailed directly from the North Pole.
Day 11-12
Delta Junction
Known for being the official end of the Alaska Highway, Delta Junction offers amazing views of the Alaska Range and Delta River. Be sure to visit the 90,000-acre Delta Bison Sanctuary containing a free-roaming herd of more than 500 animals, chosen as part of the government’s importation program. Flightseeing tours are popular here as well as lots of outdoor activities as the town has 5 state recreation areas within an hour’s drive.
Day 12
Tok
Known as the ‘Sled Dog Capital of Alaska’, many of Tok’s residents are involved in some way with dogs and dog mushing. During the summer there are plenty of dog-sled tours available. It is also well known for being Alaska’s official welcoming community as the first major town across the Canadian border for Alaska Highway travellers.
Day 14-16
