Itinerary
Your adventure begins in Anchorage as your professional driver-guide welcomes you aboard our comfortable, climate-controlled motorcoach. Settle in as you embark on one of Alaska’s most spectacular journeys along the Seward Highway—designated as both a National Scenic Byway and All-American Road for its exceptional beauty.
As you travel south along Turnagain Arm, watch for wildlife on both the water and mountainsides. Your guide will share fascinating stories about the indigenous Dena’ina people who have called this region home for thousands of years, followed by tales of Russian fur traders, gold seekers, and the modern development of America’s Last Frontier.
The highlight of your journey awaits at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, a nonprofit sanctuary dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of Alaska’s wildlife. During your guided visit, you’ll have the opportunity to see iconic Alaskan animals up-close, including:
- Massive brown and black bears
- Majestic wood bison and muskoxen
- Wolf packs in a naturalistic habitat
- Moose, caribou, elk, and more
Learn about each species’ unique adaptations to Alaska’s challenging environment and the conservation work being done to protect them. The center’s 200-acre habitat offers excellent photography opportunities with animals against a backdrop of mountains and glaciers.
After your wildlife experience, continue your scenic journey through the breathtaking landscapes of the Kenai Peninsula. Wind through Turnagain Pass and the towering Chugach Mountains before descending to the picturesque coastal community of Seward, nestled between mountains and Resurrection Bay.
Your driver will ensure timely arrival at the Seward Cruise Terminal, allowing ample time for a stress-free check-in process to begin your cruise adventure.
