Join our experienced Alaska Wagonmasters and Staff as Adventure Caravans takes you on the caravan experience of a lifetime to America’s last great frontier, 'The Land of the Midnight Sun.' Where else can you experience gorgeous green countryside, the magnificent natural beauty of mountain ranges, shimmering lakes, cascading waterfalls and free roaming wildlife? We see 1800s stage shows, glaciers and Mt. McKinley (North America’s highest mountain), standing at 20,304 feet. Relive the Gold Rush of 1898 and try your hand at gold panning. The scenery and wildflowers are spectacular along the beautiful Alaska Highway, Cassiar Highway and at the 'Top of the World' Highway. We usually see many wild animals on this tour: Sheep, caribou, elk, moose, bear (both cubs and adults), wolf and bald eagles to name a few. If you are a fisherman, join in on a fisherman’s dream; the salmon will most likely be running in the Kenai Peninsula while we are there and giant halibut fishing is available in Homer, Seward and Anchorage. Enjoy scrumptious salmon, halibut and staff hosted dinners, both scheduled and spontaneous.

Please compare the length of our tours, the cost, the itinerary, etc. with our competition. We are sure you will be pleasantly surprised with what we have to offer. These full service tours are longer than most other caravans and designed for leisure travel with time to relax, shop or explore. We have taken great care to ensure you don’t miss any of the best sights and tours on this once in a lifetime trip. Our staff is committed to our guests and are eager and willing to share their knowledge and experience with you. They want to ensure you have the best RV trip you’ve ever had.

In Fort Nelson we visit the Heritage Museum. From there, it is a scenic drive to Liard River where admission is included to soak and relax in the outdoor hot springs. Next is Watson Lake known as the Gateway to the Yukon Territory. Here we tour the interesting Alaska Highway Interpretive Center, and explore the 'Signpost Forest' which was started by a homesick soldier in 1942. Over the years, tourists have continued adding signs showing the names of their hometowns. Bring yours and add it to the collection of more than 22,000 signs. En route to Whitehorse, we cross the Continental Divide and make several sightseeing stops along the way.

This part of the Yukon Territory is very scenic. At Whitehorse we tour the SS Klondike and attend the popular and hilarious Frantic Follies Vaudeville stage show that evening.

Next we head north and take the Klondike Loop into the heart of the Yukon where we can have great cinnamon buns and see Lake LaBarge of 'Cremation of Sam McGee' fame.

In Dawson City there’s plenty of things to see and do as we step back in time into a Gold Rush boom town. Take a walk around this notorious gold mining town and relive the glory days of the Klondike Gold Rush. While in Dawson City we have a chance to strike it rich and wander through the Visitor’s Centre. You’re in for a treat when we visit the interesting places of business in this quaint little town from the pages of history. Pretend it’s 1898 when we go to Diamond Tooth Gerties Gambling Palace and enjoy the Gold Rush Days’ atmosphere and perhaps do a little partying before attending their live stage shows. Admissions are included as part of your Alaska tour package. You will never forget your visit to the 'Midnight Dome.' This place is where we see the sun set and then rise all at the same time. What an experience!

En route to Chicken, Alaska, we cross the Yukon River and drive along the 'Top of the World' Highway where the scenery is unbelievable. It is on this highway that we drive within 165 miles of the Arctic Circle. We have plenty of time to pan for gold, visit the Pedro Gold Dredge or do some exploring in Chicken before we celebrate our arrival by holding a 'Welcome to Alaska' party that evening.

At Tok, we have time to explore Alaska’s Gateway City and take advantage of fantastic souvenir shopping while there.

McKinley) where we take the premier photo safari bus tour all the way to Kantishna where you can see more wild animals than the Standard Denali Tour. We go through the tundra and along the rocky cliffs, both of which are alive with Wildlife including moose, wolves, bears, caribou, marmots, sheep, fox and other kinds of animals.

Adventure Caravans hosts a staff barbecue cookout at the RV park. Optional halibut fishing trips, fishing in the 'hole' and Gull Island trips are offered here.

Start your Kenai visit with a scenic drive along the Kenai River. Need more excitement? Try your luck at 'combat salmon fishing' or watch others participate in this exciting sport.

The small coastal community of Seward has fast become one of our favorite stops. Here we enjoy the Kenai Fjords Glacier and Wildlife Lunch Cruise. We have reserved table seating for prime rib and Alaskan salmon, consistently rated as the best meal of any Alaska cruise ship. The cruise is narrated by a national park ranger featuring towering Alpine, Cirque and Piedmont Glaciers. Watch for lots of wildlife, birds, puffins, eagles and whales on this cruise.

We have included both a sealife tour of the Alaska Sealife Center and a 'behind the scenes' guided tour which takes us into the labs and areas where the general public is not permitted. This town is interesting to see and we have allotted plenty of time to explore the city, the harbor area and Exit Glacier. It is part of the Kenai Fjords National Park and offers opportunities to view bald eagles, black bear, moose and mountain goats.

We drive along scenic Turnagain Arm to the 'bread basket of Alaska,' Palmer, where huge cabbages are grown. The next day include a visit to the Colony House and lunch at 'The Inn Cafe.'

Another highlight of this trip is the 9-hour deluxe Wildlife and Columbia Glacier Meares Ice Floes boat cruise of Prince William Sound including lunch. On board we have a chance to view wildlife and learn about the mining, oil, earthquake and fishing history plus hear stories about the first people to explore and live in the Sound. If you are a fisherman, Valdez is a good place to catch world class salmon.
