| Day 1 | Anchorage | Anchorage: After we transport you to your hotel, explore Alaska's largest city and get your vacation in Alaska off to the perfect start. Overnight Anchorage. |

It's near here that you'll spend the night. The Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge boasts a spacious deck and some of the region's most dramatic Mt. McKinley views. Flightseeing is particularly enticing because of the proximity to the "High One" and a variety of tours take full advantage of Mt. McKinley's dramatic scenery.

With the Alaska Range on one side and the Talkeetna Range on the other, the views are stunning; if you're fortunate, you'll catch sight of Mt. McKinley through the glass dome of your railcar. You'll arrive early enough to enjoy an optional activity like hiking or fly fishing. Tonight you'll be regaled with a sumptuous dinner and homespun entertainment at our Cabin Nite Dinner Theatre.

McKinley may be visible in its breathtaking splendor from the lookout point at Primrose Ridge. Later, join us on an optional jet boat ride or get behind the wheel of a Jeep for a backcountry safari. Dinner and a horse-drawn covered wagon is one popular evening option. Overnight Denali. |
| Day 5 | Fairbanks | Denali - Fairbanks: Sleep in or wake up early for one last optional tour-golfing or a kennel tour with a sled dog demonstration perhaps?

In the afternoon, board an authentic sternwheeler riverboat and explore the Chena and Tanana rivers.
