Tour Overview
With twinkling glaciers, rushing rivers and some of the most beautiful hikes in North America, Alaska has the wow factor. The wildlife is legendary, thriving on land and in sea. And as one of the last bastions of true wilderness, it is the perfect place to spot animals in their natural habitat, including Alaska’s own Big 5: bear, moose, Dall sheep, wolf and caribou. Join this wilderness trip to experience it all, with bear-viewing opportunities, wildlife cruises and wilderness walks. Visit the vast expanse of peaks and glaciers in Denali National Park and enjoy excellent opportunities to see marine giants, including humpback whales and orcas, in Kenai Fjords National Park.

Accommodation
The first night of this trip is at a comfortable hotel between Anchorage Airport and the city centre. Our US camping tours use national and state park campsites and a wide assortment of private campgrounds. Campgrounds in Alaska tend to be fairly rustic and remote, but most will have flush toilets and hot showers.
The Denali campground offers close proximity to the park but is close to the highway so can be quite noisy. If you are a light sleeper, you might want to take earplugs.
The campsite in Seward charges US$1-US$3 for showers (paid locally).
The campground in Cooper Landing sits right on the Kenai Lake, with great views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Fresh drinking water and flush toilets are available.
We sleep in high quality, heavy-duty tents and solo travellers will share with one other passenger of the same sex (unless opting to purchase the single supplement). Our camping equipment also includes field kitchens, inflatable sleeping pads, food storage and camp lanterns. Most campsites have a quiet time from 10pm to 7am. Please respect your fellow campers who are there to enjoy the peace of camping.
Camp duties
An essential part of a camping tour is helping out with the day-to-day camp duties and everyone will assist with the setting up and packing up of the campsite. Your tour leader will provide guidance on what to do; typically it will only take 15 minutes to set up or break down the tents and camp kitchen. Before you know it, you’ll be enjoying home sweet home in the great outdoors. Your tour leader will also co-ordinate and assist the group with food shopping, preparing meals and cleaning up. Sharing the camp duties is a great way to bond with your fellow travellers and the group camaraderie is all part of the experience.
