Alaskan Adventure
May 25 - June 2, 2025
No one does Alaska quite like Are We There Yet? tours. The Last Frontier has a special place in Dea’s heart as she grew up with the stories her mom and dad shared from the 18 months they lived in Fairbanks when he was stationed there. Since then, Dea and Declan have been to Alaska again and again, in Spring, Summer, Fall and, yes, even Winter! This tour includes some of the best places in Alaska, both famous and some hidden gems that might surprise you, creating an unique experience that will make you feel like you have truly experienced Alaska. We start in Fairbanks and work our way southbound to Denali National Park, home to the tallest mountain in North America. We do the longer excursion into the park for the best chance to see wildlife such as Moose and Caribou and Bear. One year we even saw a lynx! Continuing south we stay in Talkeetna, home to the quirkiest town in Alaska before we get to Anchorage and Whittier, where we take a boat ride out to the glaciers. It is a trip of a lifetime that you will never forget! * Itinerary and Price Coming Soon.
