Excursion Overview

Full day travel from Seward to Anchorage

Following your pick up we'll head out of the Seward area and tour north, where we'll see the spectacular scenery of Moose Pass and Turnagain Pass. This area is well regarded for its dramatic alpine scenery and hanging glaciers. After descending to the shores of Cook Inlet, we'll visit the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, opened to the public in 1993. It is located on 140 acres at the southern edge of Turnagain Arm and the entrance to Portage Valley.

The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center provides wildlife education and awareness, and care and rehabilitation for Alaska's wildlife. Get close, safely observe and photograph some of Alaska's largest land animals, including moose, bison, elk, deer, caribou, bears, and musk ox. Our guests also enjoy seeing small mammals like lynx, and stunning birds of prey, such as bald and golden eagles.

We'll visit the quaint town of Girdwood for a complimentary lunch. After lunch, get ready for the aerial tram ride up the longest double black diamond ski slope in North America.

From the top, you can view several glaciers and the farthest northern reaches of a temperate rainforest that stretches from here all the way south to Northern California. On select days our guests visit the Roundhouse Museum. This mountainside museum features a panoramic viewing deck for incredible views.

We rate this excursion 5 stars for two main reasons - first, the tour operator provided a top-notch driver tour guide named Alex, who pointed out so many interesting things to see along the drive from the Seward Cruise Port to ANC Airport. The side excursions on this trip (wildlife rescue park, Girdwood tram, lunch, and a glacier hike) were fun and really added to the experience. The second part of the rating is the convenience factor - pick-up was right at the door of the Seward Cruise Port, and the ride was in a Sprinter-type van (NOT a tour bus) which made for a much more pleasant ride.
