We are about to embark on one of the most exciting adventures of our lives! We are heading to ALASKA!! Not the cruise that we have done before but a land tour + cruise with Holland America Line to see so much more! We will visit: Anchorage, Denali National Park, Fairbanks, Dawson (Canada), Whitehorse (Canada), Skagway, Ketchikan and ending in Vancouver!! We are beyond excited!!
We start with two days in Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska, before beginning our cruise tour. Staying right in downtown, there is a lot to see and do in walking distance. Did you know that Ship Creek is the most fished urban creek in North America? When we were there, hundreds of people were on the banks fishing for salmon! Also, if you have a car, there are a lot of beautiful places just outside of Anchorage! We visited Beluga Point, named so as the best spot to view Beluga whales during peak season, but has gorgeous scenery all year! The snowcapped mountains are breathtaking!
Beginning our cruise tour, we took a quick bus ride from our hotel to the train station to board the McKinley Explorer - HAL's LUXURY train that will take us to Denali! This ride is absolutely spectacular!! The train car has two parts, the upper part has a glass dome so from your seat, you can enjoy a 180-degree view of the beauty of Alaska. And the bottom of the train car is the dining room, where you can enjoy specialty Alaskan meals for breakfast and lunch. We had a bison sandwich and reindeer chili... where else can you have food like this?
The train ride is about 6 hours and takes you through small towns, along rivers and past stunning mountains. And always be on the lookout for wildlife as you never know what will pop up next to the train! We saw lots! There was even a bear sighting, but we missed that one.
When you arrive a the train station in Denali, you move from the train to a bus to the final destination for the next two days at the McKinley Chalet Resort right outside of Denali National Park. The resort is beautiful and expansive! You can walk anywhere you want to go, but there is also a shuttle that will take you as well. Everything you need is onsite including two full restaurants, snack bars, bars and live entertainment. Denali Square is the heart of the resort where you can sit around a campfire into the night.
Speaking of night... fun fact is that you are in 'the land of the midnight sun' where it never really gets dark! It is so strange to be outside after 11pm and it is bright! But no worries, there are blackout curtains on the windows!

Flightseeing in Misty Fjords National Park is a must, but it will definitely cost you... Heading into Denali National Park as early as you can get in is another must do. The wildlife is most active at this time and I cannot believe how close up you can get, and how many encounters we had. I spent the entire train ride in the open air car.... the hair was a little messed up but the fresh air was worth it. This is an amazing way to see Alaska...

Remember with ceiling fans there is one direction for Summer and the opposite direction for Winter: Ceiling fan direction in the winter should be clockwise, and the fan should run at the lowest speed. This pulls cool air up toward the ceiling, which in turn displaces the warm air that rises and collects near the ceiling. A clockwise ceiling fan direction for high ceilings is especially important in winter. It moves the warmer air trapped at the very top of the room down. The air flows toward the floor and along the walls. This makes the room feel warmer, allowing you to lower the thermostat. The low speed prevents any drafty “wind chill” and keeps the airflow steady and consistent. When standing under the fan, look up and double-check that the blades are rotating in a clockwise direction.

We did this trip last August. We rented a Turo car and spent two days in Seward/Kenai before starting the land tour. But, Dawson City was our favorite place! We rented a car there also and went to Tombstone Territorial Park, plus many of the local sites. We became great friends with all 30 of the folks on our tour. Hope you joined the Sourtoe Club! Have a great time!

Denali has certainly changed since then. there was no Denali Square back then, so loved seeing this new addition. Look forward to sharing the rest of your journey. Once again, thank you. 💖💖💖💖💖💖

My parents saw to it that we kids were well traveled. (49 states and 8 foreign countries). When I was 10, six of us squeezed into a sedan, pulling a Winnebago trailer and trekked up thru Canada via the "Alaskan Highway" and into Alaska. Back then, all that Highway was gravel. Today, I believe it is all paved. We did Anchorage, Fairbanks, White Horse, various glaciers, Dawson Creek, went panning for gold (and got some). And of course, Mount McKinley, which is now called Denali. On my bucket list is to see Alaska via a cruise vantage point. I remember the sun being out at 11pm at night and mother taking pictures without a flash. The wildlife was amazing.

14:30 My first attempt to make french onion soup I went way too long on the onions and they all broke down to pretty much nothing lol Still tasted good, but silver lining was I realized I had almost made onion jam, which I tried making next and it was insanely good. If you're going through the trouble of caramelizing all those pounds of onions, it's easy to split them up and make a batch of soup and jam at the same time.

We did an 11 night road tour of Alaska in late summer 2021 after multiple AK cruises were cancelled and I had a great time. We went from Anchorage down to Seward then back through Anchorage up to Palmer. We then drove up to Denali and then to Fairbanks and flew into the the Artic Circle and then drove back to Fairbanks. We drove back to Anchorage from Fairbanks, but took a different route back which led us to drive along Alaska Highway 1, which was possibly the prettiest drive I've ever done. As much as I enjoyed Denali the coastal areas really resonated with me more than the interior. Hiking to the top of Exit Glacier to view the ice fields by Seward and then the boat tour to get next to a glacier was a highlight of the trip for me. I'm going back for a southbound cruise next year and will finally get to go fishing in AK.

In AK, whenever anyone you even remotely know wants to visit Alaska, you get contacted about recommendations. We always recommend the train to Denali and the train to Seward. You avoid the crowds and see some amazing sights. While at Denali, take the bus tour as far into the park as it goes (currently limited to 35 miles due to a landslide that took out a bridge). While at Seward, take a Resurrection Bay boat tour to see some amazing things and do some whale watching, We never recommend cruises. They’re convenient if you’re visiting the southeast panhandle, but it’s no where near as fun as being on your own. Alaska should be experienced, not viewed from a distance.

Start learning everyone get on the plane in the first 20 spots, don't rest don't go eat don't say we'll they will call 3 times for us on a flight, train, ship. Guess what everything is overbooked. First come first served. You want on a flight get noticed, get that luggage tagged, get the boarding pass approved. Get the tsa finished. Yakking in a lounge or at a seat playing on your phone can get your whole group bumped. Your goal to travel successfully is to listen to the tips she gives you about packing, add-ons, storing baggage, and get your a@#@@ to the gate counter. Some things take 20 min to figure out. Don't be pushy but if you think you can be lax and accommodating it's not 2015 you will be left behind. Travel I'd fierce and nothing is guaranteed they will bump you from a flight and no they won't give you hotels, a voucher for lazy attitude, and yes keep your crappy attitude shut. They can ban you from the boat, train, plane for drunk, your demeanor, being lazy, or asking for so much they can never give Perks. So stop asking for them. Be the polite yes sir, yes mam. Get me on this please. Don't forget strollers, carseats, extra luggage that needs to be tagged and boarded in cargo, and never put your papers in your luggage. Keep every passport, birth cert for kids. Being lazy gets your vacation sent home or bumped. There's at least 20 on standby including staff needing to get back to a point of origin. Those staff like pilots deadheading will take priority over you asap. Get to the counter when the 1st call is set. No joke it's bumping duck and weave while you are traveling. Be aware of new guidelines for sniffing dogs and mirror, searches on board for explosives, fugitives, drugs, stolen items, weapons. Staff will require you to be accommodating to every government official. Mexico, canada, British, Bahamas respect their authority or you are booted. No time to get mouthy that you hate a country. Have a beautiful time safely. They have thousands to care for. Don't be a issue be proactively participating not reactively needing a snickers to keep your mouth shut. Lol its 2023 and it's wild & crowded out there. No one wants to be the first train, flight, or ship to have a major passenger causing issue. So lovely love the AL train such a amazing one to go on. Hope it's amazing eecc

Oh cool! This is really the way to experience Alaska! You only see such a small portion on a roundtrip cruise. Are you taking a cruise tour?

At the end of your cruise do you end up back in Anchorage and fly back to Dallas from there?

Great video. Helped us a lot for our plans this summer. What month of the year did you film this and was it early, mid or late in that month? Thank you for that information.
