Alaska Wildlife Tour

Experience the breathtaking beauty of the coastal wilderness on a memorable journey from Anchorage along the spectacular Turnagain Arm. This scenic adventure follows the remarkable Seward Highway, a route widely admired for its dramatic landscapes where towering mountains meet the shimmering waters of the inlet. The drive reveals sweeping views of rugged cliffs, wide valleys, and ever changing coastal scenery. Along the way there are peaceful stops at beautiful viewpoints such as Beluga Point and Bird Point, perfect places to pause, breathe the fresh coastal air, and capture unforgettable photographs. With a little luck you may also spot wildlife in the surrounding wilderness, including majestic moose, soaring eagles, and other native animals that call this remarkable region home.

The journey continues to the renowned Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, a sanctuary devoted to the care, protection, and rehabilitation of Alaska’s native wildlife. Located near the entrance of beautiful Portage Valley, the center provides a safe and spacious environment for animals that cannot return to the wild. Visitors can observe magnificent creatures such as moose, bison, elk, deer, caribou, bears, muskox, and birds of prey while learning about conservation and wildlife protection. During warmer seasons it is often possible to see young animals being cared for as part of ongoing rehabilitation efforts. This enriching experience allows visitors to connect closely with Alaska’s wildlife while gaining a deeper appreciation for the region’s natural heritage. The tour offers an ideal way to explore the area’s most captivating scenery and wildlife within a relaxed and rewarding outing.
