Why go on one of our Alaska Tours?
The magical state of Alaska derived from the native Aleut word “alyeshka,” which means “The Great Land” is as its name suggests a place of immense scale and grandeur. Home to countless treasures that fill the pages of coffee books, Alaska defies the imagination and will have anyone immediately planning their next Alaskan tour.
Featuring a variety of estuaries and wildlife, Alaskan tours are perfect for adventurous souls and people just wanting to relax and marvel at the sight of nature. Mt. McKinley, referred to as Denali by the mountaineering community, is considered as America’s most classic climbs. Its tremendous size and beauty continuously attracts climbers from around the world. Not only is Mt. McKinley a mountaineer’s dream, it’s also a stunning sight when you catch its alpenglow in Wonder Lake at Denali National Park.
Alaska’s ice-age glacial formations is another unique Alaskan sight and are a highlight of any Alaska tour. Winding down from mountains and fjords, its cascading wall of ice is a must-see for adventurers travelling to this great land. Of course, what’s better than seeing glaciers is being able to touch them, which is why there are various helicopter or hiking tours available for tourists. For this quiet yet exciting thrill, perhaps venture down to Juneau, a gateway to Glacier Bay National Park or to Prince William Sound, which boasts the largest collection of tidewater glaciers.
