 Alaska Sled Wonderland For a snowmobiler, Alaska is
a winter wonderland, full of exquisite natural surroundings, unique
wildlife and great vacation opportunities. When you look for an
Alaska vacation package, you will have dozens of options to pick from
and can choose the level of control you would like over your trip.
Since Alaska is not only beautiful but also big, it offers the
tourist a wide variety of things to do and places to visit. You can
opt for a land only Alaska vacation package or a cruise or a mix of
both. Tranquil or exciting, your Alaska vacation package will show
you this beautiful state in all its natural wonder, just the way you
like it.
Amongst
the top visited areas in Alaska to build your vacation package around
are Denali and Kenai Fjords National Parks, Talkeetna Area (South
Denali Park) and Lake Clark Wilderness Preserve. Also popular are
Anchorage, Valdez, Glacier Bay, Fairbanks, Wrangell St. Elias Park
and College Fjords in Prince William Sound. An Alaska vacation
package offers numerous activities, such as fishing, rafting,
kayaking, hiking, wildlife viewing, and for the more laidback,
helicopter excursions. Princess Cruises offer their popular Gulf of
Alaska cruise which includes many of the above mentioned spots as
well as historically important ports like Juneau, Skagway and
Ketchikan. The liners are luxurious and built on a huge scale, packed
with every comfort.
Holland
America is another major cruise operator that provides glamorous
cruises that can be added to your Alaska vacation package for a truly
5 star experience of the glaciers, waterways and seafront towns.
Another option is to rent a car or a recreation vehicle (RV) to
explore the ins and outs of this snow kingdom on your own. It’s
a good idea to have your tour agent take care of the details for you
so that there is no last minute searching and you don’t get
overcharged. A basic land only Alaska vacation package with air fare
excluded will cost upwards of $1600 per person for about 7 days. Add
to that a 7 day luxury Alaska cruise for approximately $750 per
person or more (taxes not included). An experienced Alaska vacation
package agent can bundle the services and add more value to your
holiday. If at all possible, try to take your snowmobile with you to Alaska!
