Highlights of Alaska with Alaska Railroad

Independent Alaska Railroad trip through Anchorage, Seward, and Denali

Railbookers sells this six-day, five-night independent rail package as a way to experience the best of Alaska, from Anchorage to Seward and Denali National Park. After time exploring Anchorage, travelers board the Alaska Railroad for a day trip to Seward, which includes a cruise of Resurrection Bay to see glaciers and wildlife. The journey then continues to Denali, described in the evidence for its pristine landscapes and mountains, with a day venturing deep into the park's wilderness toward Kantishna. Because this is an independent package, travelers are not accompanied by a group leader throughout. It suits travelers who want Alaska's combination of rail travel, glacier and wildlife viewing, and Denali's wilderness in a short trip. Railbookers prices the package from $2,699 USD per person.

What to know before you look closer

  • Railbookers does not publish a day-by-day itinerary for this package in the evidence available to us; confirm which segments use the Alaska Railroad versus other transport, and how nights are divided between Anchorage and Denali, before booking.
  • The Resurrection Bay portion of the Seward day trip is a boat cruise, not a rail segment, despite the package being sold as a rail experience.
