Alaska 7 Day Itinerary

You can do a lot in Alaska in seven days. You can ride the Alaska Railroad, flightsee around Denali, kayak in a glacial lagoon. You can visit Denali National Park, Kenai Fjords National Park, and maybe even Katmai or Wrangell-St. Elias National Park. You can travel as far north as Fairbanks and as far south as Seward. Seven days in Alaska is the sweet spot.

Our most popular Alaska travel package is the seven-day Best of Denali & Kenai Fjords itinerary. It features overnights in Anchorage, Seward, Talkeetna, and the Denali Park area and includes several top-rated activities like a guided bus tour into Denali National Park. It also has a combination of train and motorcoach transportation. This saves time in transit, but more importantly ensures that you see as much distinctive Alaskan scenery as possible in seven days.

There are a variety of other seven-day Alaska trips, ranging from itineraries built for active travelers to self-drive packages ideal for groups of four or more.

To make your time go even further, consider starting in Anchorage and ending your vacation in Fairbanks (or the opposite, like in the North to South Alaska Explorer). This saves you from looping back on a path you've already explored, keeping every day as fresh as the last.

Because all our trip packages are fully customizable, our staff can work with you to create your ideal Alaskan vacation. You can add or skip destinations, change activities to suit your interests, and in many cases upgrade accommodations and transportation.
