Why Self-Guided?
By Car
By Rail & Coach
There’s no danger of having to scramble for space in hotels or popular day tours. There’s no pressure of meeting up with a group. You can go with the flow, lingering to watch wildlife, meet locals, and relax while surrounded by the tranquil rhythm of nature.
Travel by rail, motorcoach, or car—it’s your choice! You'll discover all the wilderness sights you've heard about: Denali National Park, North America's tallest peak, and abundant wildlife. They're highlights you absolutely should not miss.
Maximize your flexibility by driving yourself. Alaska's highways are safe, fun to drive, and endowed with endless vistas. As mountains, rivers, forest and tundra unfold, you'll see why so many Alaskan roadways have earned "scenic byway" status. Since you follow no schedule but your own, you can pull over for better views of foraging moose or even bears, tarry at an authentic Alaskan roadhouse, and meet local Alaskans—possibly the friendliest people in America.
Leave the driving to us - it's the most relaxing way to take in Alaska's stunning scenery while meeting fellow travelers. On our scenic rail tours, you’ll step aboard glass-domed railcars for 360-degree views as you chug along the famed Alaska Railroad corridor from Seward to Fairbanks. It's the most luxurious way to experience miles of wilderness—some not accessible from any roads—with the flexibility to stretch your legs and enjoy a beverage or fine meal. Motorcoach travel is also comfortable, relaxing, and scenic. Alaska's historic roads lead right to the state's highlights and can be faster than the train.
