SELF-GUIDED ADVENTURES IN ALASKA
A Self-Guided holiday is an amazingly liberating adventure. World Class Adventures can design trips to give you the very best experience in a region. You are your own guide, so you can explore at your own leisure. Chat to locals, linger over lunch, or set off an hour earlier to catch the coolest part of the day. Pause or press on, the choice is up to you: cherry-pick your stops along the way – you set the pace. We provide high-quality support through local suppliers, as well as 24-hour emergency support if required.
The 49th state has rightly earned its nickname as the Last Frontier, full of staggering mountains with glaciers clung to their sides, big game wildlife, towering icebergs, lively cities, a unique culture, historic mining communities and a thousand things in between. Do you need any more reasons to visit Alaska? And yes: the snow does melt in the summer!
- Catch a glimpse of Mother Nature’s finest light show – the spectacular Northern Lights

- Safari in Denali National Park to see the US version of the Big 5: grizzly bears, moose, wolves, caribou and Dall sheep

- Snowboard and Ski the backcountry, or in resorts with jaw-dropping real mountain terrain
ALASKA HAS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE
While some may envision Eskimos and igloos, Alaska is actually one of the best places to spend a vacation whether by land or sea. See the jaw-dropping scenery of unspoiled nature, majestic mountains, glaciers, fjords, crystal clear lakes, waterfalls and the National Parks. Cruising along the Inside Passage and seeing the remote villages with picturesque backdrop is one of the highlights. Some cities, like Sitka, are only accessible by water or air.
- Get your ‘twitcher’ on, and find magnificent bald eagles flying overhead
- Cruise the waters and see seals and sea lions on the water, salmon leaping, and even bears and whales from a distance.
- Immerse yourself in Alaska’s rich and varied history from the Native Indians to Russian fur traders and gold miners
- During the summer, Alaska is a playground for kayaking, river rafting, hiking, sport fishing or scenic flightseeing.
- Winter is prime time for ice fishing, hot springs dipping, heli-skiing and northern lights viewing
