There are literally hundreds of Alaskan tours to choose from! Whether you’re bringing young children to show them wildlife, nature and a part of history, or taking a romantic and adventurous honeymoon adventure, there is something in Alaska for you. When most people think of cruises, the Bahamas or Hawaii comes to mind, but you can find fantastic seven-night expeditions in peak summer months for as low as $699 (primarily because most people head to Europe during the warmer months). Be sure to save enough money for your adventure to the 49th Us state, as there is no limit to what you can do on this once-in-a-lifetime trip.

In Juneau, a classic Alaskan tour is the “Four Glaciers By Helicopter & Dog Sled Adventure.” On this once-in-a-lifetime expedition, you’ll soar over four real glaciers, which are the Taku, the Hole-in-the-Wall, Dead Branch and East Twin, while catching a bird’s eye view of moose, goats, bears and caribou. Then you will land on Norris Glacier where you’ll meet up with your Alaskan malamute and Alaskan husky dogsled team. Your guide will describe the 1,000-mile Iditarod Race that traverses from Anchorage to Nome. Your trip will include some hiking through crevasses and navigating streams for two hours of ethereal zen. This journey is for the fearless, the cold-insensitive, the adventurous and the athletic.

The “Rainforest Canopy and Zip Line Adventure” is another Juneau Alaskan adventure. You’ll no longer have to imagine what it must feel like for a bird soaring through the trees. Starting on Douglas Island, you’ll zip by flora, fauna and the remains of an 1800s gold mining operation. Not only will you get a sensational view of Alaska, but you’ll experience a tremendous adrenaline rush. Two guides will saddle you up with a harness, gloves and helmet, instructing beginners and zip-line junkies alike.

Lastly, you won’t want to miss the “White Pass Scenic Railway” that takes you through the narrow escarpment and gives you a glimpse at the Alaska that Yukon gold prospectors may have seen. You’ll ride an old-fashioned parlor car up the 2,800-foot mountain, past Bridal Vein Falls, Inspiration Point and Dead Horse Gulch. You can take a three hour journey round-trip or choose to book a bus ride on the Klondike Highway. The rich history of Alaska can’t be ignored on this tour, which is why it’s one of the most recommended tours you can take.
