Don't miss the Denali Highway, the #2 "Drive of a Lifetime" by National Geographic Traveler magazine. Once the gateway to Denali National Park, this 135-mile gravel road is surrounded by pristine nature and is a photographer's paradise. Snow-capped mountains, icy glaciers and panoramic vistas flank the Denali Highway. During your guided and narrated 100 plus mile round-trip excursion, there are opportunities to see Mt. Denali and wildlife (both weather permitting). New, 4-door, 4x4 Jeeps hug the dirt road, while comfortably seating four adults who can trade off driving. Each Jeep has a CB radio for communicating with the guide so stops can be made whenever desired. As driving the Denali Highway is prohibited by most rental vehicle companies, this exclusive excursion provides access to more of Alaska's spectacular scenery and wildlife and is a great alternative to crowded bus trips. Snacks and drinks provided. Must be 25 with a license to drive.
