Anchorage - Seward
Departure: 6:45 am / Arrival: 11:05 am
This morning board the legendary Alaska Railroad Coastal Classic for your departure at 6.45 am to Seward. Enjoy onboard the diner-lounge car serving optional cooked-on-board breakfast, reclining seat coaches and a vista-dome car. The tour offers incomparable vista of fjords, glaciers and mountains as you follow the Cook Inlet/Turnagain Arm, then climb steeply through the coastal mountains to cross Moose Pass. Enroute you pass by two glaciers so closely, the ice seems to almost reach the tracks! Arrive in Seward at 11.05 am. Transfer to the boat harbour in time for the 11:30 am departure for your full day cruise into Kenai Fjords National Park. The 110-mile cruise takes you deep into Kenai Fjords National Park and to the Chiswell Islands National Wildlife Refuge. Hosting this cruise is a uniformed National Park Ranger, who will provide narration to your journey and point out the many spectacular sights while fielding any questions you may have. Wildlife is abundant throughout the National Park, and the tidewater glaciers are massive. You'll visit the mighty Holgate Glacier where guests often witness calving - a process by which the glacier sheds giant blocks and slabs of ancient ice - from a close distance. Onboard enjoy a all-you-can-eat delicious Salmon and Prime Rib lunch buffet. With photo opportunities galore, your cruise will be unforgettable. Return to Seward at 7:30 pm. Check into your hotel. |
