    At the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center visitors are free to explore over 140 acres of natural habitat home to bears, moose, reindeer, lynx and other native wildlife.

    1 hour

  • Beluga Point

    The point is a definite must stop location as the views are spectacular! Beluga Point, a rocky outpost jutting into the waters of Turnagain Arm, is just south of Anchorage along the Seward Highway. It’s named for the white whales that are often spotted from this location as they make their way up and down the inlet. Beluga's are often seen between July and August.

    20 minutes

  • Seward Highway

    Alaska's Turnagain Arm on the Seward Highway is among those voted as one of the country's most unforgettable, must see areas of Alaska. MANY HAVE SAID THAT IF YOU MISS VISITING SIGHTS ALONG THE TURNAGAIN ARM- - YOU HAVE MISSED ALASKA!

    4 hours

  • Portage Glacier

    Portage Valley is a 14 mile isthmus that connects the Kenai Peninsula to mainland Alaska. Portage Glacier once extended the entire length of the valley. The glacial remnants seen today are Explorer, Middle, Byron, Burns, and Shakespeare glaciers. While still massive in size, these glaciers stand as smaller reminders of the immense ice sheets that once covered this landscape.

Amazing local experience

Published on Dec, 2024

We had an amazing time with our guide. We didn’t initial realize that we’d make a lunch stop in Girdwood on the way out to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. The van was plenty warm. There was a text one day prior with helpful details including itinerary details, van photo to help with pickup, and more. The short walk at the end through the Alaskan rainforest overlooking the glacial lake was a highlight. Our guide was so passionate about explaining her upbringing in rural Alaska, sharing Native culture, and making sure we had a great time. We appreciated the whole tour and had a great experience!

Must see!

Loved the incredible views and the knowledge and history received from the guide. We spotted a moose and he gave us extra time for photos and helped us out. Enjoyable tour!

Very interesting tour! I would highly recommend this to anyone who is considering booking. Our guide Matthew was great! He took his time with the tour and we were able to get some amazing photos! I am planning to visit Alaska in the spring and most definitely I'll book tours with Alaska's Finest Tours & Cruises.
