Modéré

Moderate because of the travel, not the walking. Walks are up to about 3 to 5 km a day on paths, boardwalks and town streets. There is one 16-hour day on the Inside Passage ferry, a night and most of a day on the Alaska ferry, and three road days of about 4 to 5 hours. Optional activities include a half-day canoe paddle on the Yukon River (no experience needed) and the Mount Healy Overlook climb of about 500 m; you can sit any of them out.

Points forts

Pourquoi ce voyage

  • A full summer day on the BC Ferries Inside Passage sailing from Port Hardy to Prince Rupert, through channels with no road beside them
  • A night on the Alaska Marine Highway ferry, when the Prince Rupert sailing runs, calling at Ketchikan, Wrangell and Petersburg on the way to Juneau
  • Mendenhall Glacier early, before the crowds, then a boat out of Auke Bay to look for humpback whales
  • A small-plane flight over the Coast Mountains from Juneau to Whitehorse, and a paddle on the Yukon River
  • Kathleen Lake and Kluane Lake in Kluane country, then the Alaska Highway across the border to Tok
  • The end of the Alaska Highway at Delta Junction, Rika's Roadhouse, and a sternwheeler on the Chena River in Fairbanks
  • An early bus deep into Denali National Park, then the Alaska Railroad south to Anchorage in a glass-domed car

Arrive in Vancouver

Vancouver International Airport (YVR) to your hotel in downtown Vancouver

  • Repas du soir
  • Nuit : Vancouver
  • Environ 24 min de route

Fly into Vancouver International Airport (YVR), about 15 km from downtown, and a driver meets you for the ride to your central hotel. Plan to land by about 4 pm to meet the group; the exact time is confirmed with your final itinerary. If you arrive early, walk the seawall around Coal Harbour or the cobbled streets of Gastown, both a short walk from most downtown hotels, or take the little False Creek ferries across to Granville Island.

Soir

In the evening your See Sight Tours guide meets the group for a briefing on the two weeks ahead: which days are long travel days, how the two ferries and the flight connect, what goes in your day bag on the ferry, and the border paperwork for Alaska and the Yukon. Then we sit down together for a welcome dinner in town. The light lasts late in June and July, so there is time for a walk afterwards.

Faune et météo : Summer on the coast is mild and often wet, about 12 to 20 °C, with fog and rain in the Inside Passage on any day. The Yukon and interior Alaska are drier and can reach the mid-20s, with cold mornings and mosquitoes in June and July. It barely gets dark in June. Humpback whales feed around Juneau all summer, bears and moose are possible along the Alaska Highway, and the Denali park road is good for grizzlies, caribou and Dall sheep, but no sighting is certain and the mountain is often in cloud.

Avant de réserver

Ce voyage est-il pour vous?

Ce voyage vous convient si vous recherchez

  • Travellers who want to see the whole coast-to-interior sweep from Vancouver to Anchorage in one trip, mostly by sea and rail
  • People who enjoy long days watching the scenery from a ferry deck or a train dome
  • Those who want hotels rather than camping on an Alaska Highway trip
  • Wildlife watchers happy with binoculars and patience: whales, bears, moose, sheep and eagles are all possible
  • Solo travellers who want a guide to handle two ferries, a flight, a border and a train

Ce voyage ne vous convient pas si vous recherchez

  • Anyone who dislikes long travel days: there is a 16-hour ferry day, a night at sea and two road days of about four and three-quarter hours, over our usual four-hour cap because of the fixed ferry time and the lack of rooms between Kluane and Tok
  • Travellers who need flexible dates: departures follow the ferry timetables
  • Hikers wanting long trail days: the walks here are short options
  • Anyone who needs a guaranteed view of Denali or of whales
  • Travellers who would rather not cross borders four times

Questions

What does the Vancouver to Anchorage trip price include?

The price includes 14 nights in hotels and one ferry cabin, 14 breakfasts, 11 lunches and 5 dinners, airport transfers, our own vehicle and driver on the road sections, both ferries, the flight from Juneau to Whitehorse, the whale boat, the Denali park bus, the Alaska Railroad in GoldStar Service, the Fairbanks riverboat, all listed entries and your See Sight Tours guide throughout.

How big is the group?

This trip runs with 7 to 12 guests. That is small enough to board ferries and the plane together without a crowd, to fit around one table at the lodges in Kluane and Tok, and to ride in a vehicle with seat belts and spare seats.

Who leads the trip?

A See Sight Tours guide travels with the group from Vancouver airport on day 1 to Anchorage airport on day 15, including on both ferries, the flight to Whitehorse and the train. Local guides join where sites have them: the cannery in Port Edward, the whale boat crew, the Yukon River canoe guides and the Denali park bus naturalist.

How fit do I need to be for this trip?

You need to be comfortable with long travel days more than hard walking, including two road days of about four and three-quarter hours, past our usual four-hour cap. Walks are up to about 5 km on paths and boardwalks. The Yukon River paddle and the Mount Healy Overlook hike are optional, and each comes with an easy alternative, so you can sit out anything strenuous.

I am travelling solo. Do I pay a single supplement?

A room of your own costs from CAD 1,740 more for the trip, including a cabin to yourself on the Alaska ferry. If you would rather share, say so when you request to book and we will try to pair you with another solo traveller; we tell you before anything is confirmed whether a match is possible.

When is the best time to travel from Vancouver to Alaska?

June to August. The Inside Passage day sailing, the Alaska ferry from Prince Rupert, the Denali park buses and the Denali Star train all run on summer schedules. June has the longest light and more mosquitoes; July and August are warmest, with salmon in the rivers and whales feeding around Juneau.

Are the ferry times fixed, and what if a sailing does not run?

The Inside Passage sailing runs to a published summer timetable, but the Alaska ferry from Prince Rupert to Juneau is not guaranteed every year. We open dates only once that summer's timetable shows it; if it does not run, we fly Prince Rupert to Juneau via Ketchikan instead. If the seasonal Juneau to Whitehorse flight is not operating, we go by ferry to Skagway and over the White Pass by road.

Do I need a visa for Canada and Alaska on this trip?

You enter the US twice and Canada twice, so bring a passport valid for the whole trip. Most visa-exempt travellers need a Canadian eTA, which also covers the flight into Whitehorse, and a US ESTA. If you need visas, both must allow multiple entries. Canadian and US citizens need only their passports.

Will I get seasick on the Inside Passage ferry?

Probably not for long. The first two hours or so cross Queen Charlotte Sound, which is open to the Pacific and can roll; after that the ship runs in sheltered channels for the rest of the day. The Alaska ferry stays almost entirely in sheltered water. Bring tablets if you are prone to seasickness.

How does booking work?

You send a request to book for the date you want; no payment is taken at that stage. We check ferry, cabin, flight and hotel space and confirm within 24 hours, with the price and the final itinerary. Only then do you decide whether to go ahead.

Can I do this trip on my own dates?

Yes, as a private trip for your party only on a date you choose, from about CAD 18,405 per person, with your own guide and vehicle; the dates still need to fit the ferry timetables. If you would rather travel independently without a guide, ask us for a separate quote.
