Alaska Train & Bus Packages
Offering an ease of travel plus the widest array of scenery, an Alaska train and bus vacation package brings together two distinctive modes of travel into a seamless trip. Transportation is provided by the Park Connection Motorcoach and either the Alaska Railroad or privately-operated dome car service like the Wilderness Express.
These customizable trip packages travel throughout an area commonly known as Alaska's railbelt, a long stretch of train track and highway that runs as far north as Fairbanks and as far south as Seward. Along the railbelt are some of Alaska's most popular destinations. These include Kenai Fjords National Park near Seward, Anchorage, Denali National Park, and Talkeetna, the park's quirky small-town neighbor to the south.
There are several benefits to blending these types of transportation. You can learn while on the go, as the railroad has onboard car hosts who provide narration throughout each trip. You get to see more of Alaska, since the train tracks and highways don't always follow the same path. Through incorporating travel by both train and bus, you can make your travel budget go further. You can also make your travel time go further, as motorcoach rides are shorter.
Curious about sites you could discover beyond the railbelt? Look into one of our self-drive packages to see trips that go off the beaten path. Do you like the idea of traveling the whole time with the same group and a guide? Browse our escorted tour packages. You can also use our Trip Finder to search for travel packages that include specific destinations and things to do. All Alaska Tour & Travel self-guided trip packages are fully customizable, and our staff of local Alaskans is happy to work with you to create your best Alaska vacation.
