Overview

Even as big as it is, it can be surprising just how long it takes to get from site to site in Alaska. This one-way 4x4 SUV or van rental with pickup in Anchorage and return in Fairbanks ensures that travelers can do and see as much as possible in this vast state.

Do and see as much as possible.

All rentals listed here are permitted for travel on Alaska's many gravel routes. This includes the 135-mile Denali Highway, the Dalton Highway beyond Fairbanks, and McCarthy Road in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park. With a Fairbanks return option, guests can explore some or all of these scenic roads without having to make the long return trip back to Anchorage.

Both 4x4 SUV and van rentals can be dropped off at the Fairbanks International Airport.
