Your tour guide will meet you between 8:45 – 9am at your Anchorage area hotel, and get you prepared for a 6-hourl adventure of exploring the Anchorage/Turnagain Arm wilderness.The fun begins when you leave the city and drive down the Seward Highway, which is often regarded as one of Americas most beautifully scenic roads. Take in the beauty of the Turnagain Arm, a narrow channel of the Cook Strait, and at roadside stops like Beluga Point, snap some photos and keep an eye out for moose, eagles, or dall sheep. Continuing south youll make a stop at the Anchorage Coastal Wildlife Refuge, before continuing on to Portage Lake for a cruise to Portage Glacier. Because the glacier is currently retreating, you can no longer see the glacier itself when standing in front of the visitor center, but by taking a boat across the lake you get a front row view. Hear the shifting river of ice as it cracks, rumbles, and groans, and if youre lucky youll see some ice go calving into the lake. Youll next have the chance to meet the wildlife, and see injured, orphaned, and rehabilitated animals at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. Spread out over 140 acres, this facility is meant to raise awareness toward Alaskas native wildlife, and spend time with bison, elk, caribou, muskox, eagles, and moose. After watching glaciers and snapping dozens of photos, your tour finishes when youre dropped off at your Anchorage area hotel.
