Day Trips From Anchorage
Some of our favorite day trips are listed below. Some guests may end up using Anchorage as their “basecamp” and may take longer day trips. There are also many tour operators that we work very closely with that can make more distant excursions more manageable in a day trip. When making a reservation please feel free to inquire about trip planning recommendations and advice. We can also book directly with tour operators.
