Denali Park Bus Tours

Guided bus tours into Denali National Park combine storytelling of the area's rich history with information about the plants and animals thriving inside the park. There are currently two park tours operating in Denali:

  • Tundra Wilderness Tour - Travels 42 miles along the Park Road to the East Fork River, a sweeping glacial wash and one of the park's most iconic landscapes. Wildlife sightings are quite common with grizzlies, caribou, Dall sheep, and moose regularly spotted from the Park Road.
  • Denali Natural History Tour - Travels 17 miles to Primrose Ridge. This tour focuses on the history of the park, with two interpretive presentations highlighting the cultural traditions of the park's human inhabitants.

What's the difference between Denali National Park tour buses and transit buses? Transit buses head into the park on a regular schedule and do not offer narration by the driver. If you are interested in learning more about the park's history and stopping for wildlife, a guided tour is the best choice.

We always recommend that guests plan at least two consecutive nights in Denali National Park to allow for a full day to explore the park. Park tours do fill up quickly, so reserve early. Buses pick up passengers at many Denali Park hotels, making it easy to access your tour. Guests on all tours should remember to bring a camera, water, snacks, warm clothing, and sturdy shoes for stops along the way.

The National Park Service is constructing a bridge to bypass an ongoing landslide on the Denali Park Road. During construction visitors will have access to 43 scenic miles of the Park Road. For more details, please check the Park Road information page.
