Alaska – By Land or By Sea

Alaska is more accessible than you might think. No matter how you get here — a few hours by air, several days by road or perhaps a journey of a week or more if traveling by cruise ship — Alaska is just a hop, skip and jump away.

Your first decision when planning your Alaska trip is by land or by sea…

Cruising is an incredibly popular option for experiencing all Alaska has to offer.

However, Alaska can be accessed by road via the Alaska Highway, the main corridor between Alaska and the Lower 48. The highway’s 1,520 miles of paved road officially begins in Dawson Creek, British Columbia, and ends in Fairbanks. Drivers should be on the lookout for wildlife along the way including bears, moose, and caribou, to name a few. While Alaska has fewer highways than most states, a good portion of it is accessible to visitors traveling by private vehicle.
