Vacations In Alaska Are An Experience

Vacations in Alaska vary from an outdoor camping getaway at one of the quite a few parks to a number of days onboard a luxury cruise ship, sailing among the glaciers of the Inside Passage to traveling a rail coach from Anchorage to Fairbanks. There is something for everybody in Alaska: nature preserves, museums, celebrations, canoeing and water-skiing, and trips by airplane, helicopter, RV, car, bicycle, trekking, and by boat.

Learning Program Holidays

Near Kodiak, AK, an archaeological field camp welcomes visitors in their research of the Alutiq tribe. Tent lodging, foods, and vehicles back and forth from the dig site over the bay from the campground is provided by motorboat. Bring your own sleeping bag and pillow. Eagle River and Anchorage hosts tours of less visited sites for that continuing education credits can be obtained.

Summer time and Winter season Camps

Beginning in Anchorage, fly-in family and youth summer and winter camps are happening in the rural Bush of Alaska. Campers participate in mountain climbing, pack rafting, hiking, geocaching, and learn wilderness skills in one and two week sessions.

Sightseeing

Taking in the sights is achieved in myriad of fashions. Whether touring on your own or by group, guided or independent, on ground or water, the points of interest to see are unique and unforgettable. Tour specialists of different regions of Alaska can be found at each port of call of cruise ships and at most air terminals throughout the state.

Photography and Painting Tours

Hiking, water-skiing, and whale watching tours are excellent opportunities for photography and artwork fanatics to catch a one-of-a-kind sight not possible anyplace but in Alaska. Whether it is the calving of a glacier, breeding of the humpback whales, or a polar bear on the hunt for his subsequent meal, this is one of the very best ways to see, enjoy, and capture Alaska at its finest.

Alaska is the last frontier and a vacationer's heaven. Come and have fun!
