Wilderness holidays in Alaska


Alaska is not the wild frontier it once was. Camera-wielding coach groups roam up and down the highway in Denali National Park during summer, and mega cruises carry around one million people every year around coastal destinations such as the Gulf of Alaska, the Inside Passage. But it’s still incredibly easy to find yourself in a vast expanse of nothingness, and the best way to do that is with an Alaska wilderness holiday. These are itineraries designed to give you a taste of that frontier spirit, with a degree of roughing it in places – don’t expect chocolates on your pillow every morning – and a passion to immerse you in the landscapes and wildlife while going that little bit further than your average Alaska holiday.

What do Alaska wilderness
holidays involve?
Answering the call of the wild also means throwing in your lot with others. The vast majority of Alaska wilderness holidays are small group trips where bonds form quickly as you share long journeys, amazing activities and endless games of cards. Depending on the trip, there may be an element of pitching in on occasion, such as helping to prepare meals and wash up, or cleaning out the transport – entirely optional of course, but that feeling of ‘all being in it together’ does make for a more satisfying experience.
