Tour Highlights
Step off your ship into a waiting railcar for an exclusive Direct-to-the-Wilderness® rail service to the Mt. McKinley Princess Wilderness Lodge® for a two-night retreat. Here you'll settle in with Denali never far from view. Take in the sensational views with a glass of wine in the great room or on the expansive deck.
You have a full day to plan however you choose. Stop by the Tour Desk for a variety of optional excursions (additional fees apply). Walk the nature trails around the lodge or sit and gaze at the majesty of "The Great One" from the lodge's treehouse, designed and built by Pete Nelson of Animal Planet's Treehouse Masters.
Enjoy a scenic motorcoach drive to the Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge®, located just outside the national park entrance. Check in with the Guest Service Desk for help in planning your own Denali adventure (additional fees apply). Or you may enjoy the spectacular main lodge, river view deck, and Princess Village with the popular Christmas cottage and sugar shack. Be sure to check out Fannie Q's Saloon (additional fees may apply), named after a famed local homesteader, or sit outside at a fireside patio.
Start your morning with a quick stop at Fannie Q's saloon for a hearty buffet breakfast (additional fees may apply). Explore Denali National Park on a Natural History Tour, watching for glimpses of Denali as well as Denali's "Big Five"; moose, caribou, bears, wolves and Dall sheep. Later today, you may want to simply relax with a glass of wine on the deck overlooking the Nenana River.
You'll have the morning to relax, then travel by scenic motorcoach to Fairbanks. This afternoon, take a Riverboat Cruise down the Chena River. You'll get to experience Gold Rush history, Native culture and colorful Alaska lifestyle of bush pilots, dog sledders and Native artisans.
Your memorable vacation ends this morning in Fairbanks.
