Alaska 5 Day Itinerary

Even though most visitors leave Alaska wishing they had more time, there are still plenty of ways to fit in exciting activities and memorable destinations when you're working with just five days.

Our five-day itineraries focus on the top Alaska destinations. In one trip, you can take a wildlife bus tour into Denali National Park and day cruise into Kenai Fjords National Park, raft the Nenana River, and even go flightseeing through the Alaska Range. Overnight destinations on these tours can include Seward, Anchorage, Talkeetna, and the Denali Park area.

These packages also include a range of transportation options, which in a place as big as Alaska, is an important part of the travel experience. Most combine travel by both railroad and motorcoach, guaranteeing that you'll see as much of Alaska as possible in five days. There is also a self-drive travel package, our Both Sides of Denali Self-Drive tour, that includes a rental car. It's perfect for visitors who like a little more freedom to explore on their own.

A five-day land tour also pairs nicely with an Alaska cruise to create a perfect cruise tour vacation. See our Cruise Finder to look for a cruise, and our pre-cruise or post-cruise pages for land tour ideas.

All our trip packages are fully customizable. You can upgrade your transportation, add destinations, and pick different activities. Our staff of local Alaskans is happy to work with you to create your ideal Alaskan vacation.

You can also use our Trip Finder to search for travel packages that include specific destinations, things to do, and types of transportation. We also have seven-day and 10-day Alaska itineraries in case you decide that five days in Alaska just isn't enough.
