Alaska: Ocean Wildlife to Interior Wilderness Adventure

Start & end in Anchorage 9 days Up to 10

About this trip

This nine-day trip runs from Alaska's coast to its interior, covering brown bears, ocean wildlife, and the wilderness around Denali. It's fully guided throughout, with a small group and a moderate pace suited to those wanting close wildlife encounters without a physically demanding itinerary.

You'll start on the coast at Lake Clark National Park, where brown bears gather on the shoreline to graze and hunt for oysters. From there, the trip moves into Kenai Fjords National Park for a boat cruise through waters where orcas, humpback whales, dolphins, puffins and seals are commonly seen.

The second half of the trip heads inland to Denali National Park for more wildlife viewing, with a stop in the small town of Talkeetna along the way.
