Glacier Cruise and Wildlife Discovery from Anchorage
Depart downtown Anchorage and travel along one of America’s most scenic routes — the Seward Highway and Turnagain Arm — into the wilderness beyond. Visit the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, a 200-acre sanctuary where rescued and orphaned Alaskan animals such as brown bears, muskox, bison, wolves, and moose roam in naturalistic habitats. Immerse yourself in the grandeur of Alaska’s wildlife before continuing to Portage Lake, where you’ll board the MV Ptarmigan with Portage Glacier Cruises for an unforgettable, narrated hour-long cruise among cascading waterfalls to within a few hundred feet of the towering face of Portage Glacier. You may even hear the thunderous crack of the glacier calving. This combination of wildlife viewing, scenic driving, and glacier cruising creates a compact and unforgettable Alaskan day trip, perfect for nature lovers and first-time visitors alike.
