Arrive in Anchorage and settle into your downtown hotel this evening. If time allows, explore the city a bit tonight. Add a free day in Anchorage to include a flightsee, dog sled or bear viewing tour to explore the area. Rest up before the first full day.

Catch the train south to Seward this morning, transfer to your hotel and settle in mid-day. Later, set out on a Kenai Fjords National Park cruise.

Departing from Seward, this cruise glides past seals, whales and puffins as you explore coastal rainforests, tidewater glaciers and remote Alaskan islands. Experienced and engaging captains narrate the trip, so you walk away knowing a whole lot more about Kenai Fjords National Park and its wonders.  

Enjoy a leisurely morning in Seward today. Mid-morning, you are picked up and set out for your tour. Take in the fascinating history, and breathtaking beauty as your guide shows you the sights of Seward Alaska, known as “the Gateway to Alaska” and “Mile 0″ of the Iditarod Trail. See first-hand the effects of the 1964 Earthquake and stand in awe of the mountain home to the second oldest foot race in the United States.

Then, head out to Exit Glacier in the Kenai Fjords National Park, one of Seward Alaska's favorite views. A short walk along the nature trail takes you to the face of the glacial ice. Watch for mountain goats, moose, or bear on the mountainside. During the salmon runs, see salmon swimming upstream to spawn. A hearty lunch will be served at nearby Resurrection Roadhouse before you travel to the Seavey homestead and take a 1.5-hour dog sledding tour on wheeled carts. Learn about dog-sledding from the Iditarod expert. At the end of this fun-filled day, spend the rest of your evening relaxing or exploring on your own.

Awaken to the smell of the ocean and the spirit of adventure. This morning, take advantage of your free time by sea kayaking in the bay or hiking the daunting Mount Marathon, home to Alaska’s most iconic foot race. Take in the maritime wonders of the Alaska SeaLife Center, raft the Upper Kenai, stroll the harbor looking for sea lions and otters, or charter a fishing vessel for the opportunity to fill your freezer with wild-caught Alaskan salmon and halibut.

Board the evening train and sit back to enjoy the expansive and breathtaking views of the Kenai Peninsula-- including Cook Inlet, Turnagain Arm, and the Chugach National Forest-- on your way to your farewell night in Anchorage. 

Transfer to the airport for your flight home this morning, or continue your travels to another region in Alaska.
