Guided Alaska Vacations by Bus & Motor Coach

An Alaska guided bus tour is easy to get around Alaska and enjoy the diverse landscapes, wildlife, and attractions from the Inside Passage to Anchorage to Denali National Park. You don’t need to worry about the details if you travel through Alaska on one of our escorted (guided) bus tours. Our Alaska Tours logistical experts have worked out all the arrangements. All you need to do is enjoy your relaxing and informative guided tour by motorcoach or van.

We offer fully escorted (guided) or partially-guided tours. We also have tour packages and add-ons that work well as Alaskan cruise extensions, expanding your cruise experience to include a unique trip into Alaska’s interior. And we offer private and charter bus tour options for organized groups of Alaska travelers where we can customize a tour specifically for your group.

Fully-escorted tours range from 6 to 10 days and include both travel by motorcoach and rail, all with the leadership of an expert guide who will handle all the details. Partially-escorted trips are partly guided but also include some independent travel. Alaska bus tours that combine a cruise and land tour offer the simplicity of booking everything together but still provide an independent-travel experience.

On a guided tour of one of Alaska’s many diverse communities, guests can visit some truly unique cultural gems like the Alaska Native Heritage Center, the University of Alaska Museum of the North, and the remote Inupiaq community of Utqiagvik (formerly Barrow). Want to cross the Arctic Circle? You can easily add a tour of Alaska’s Interior to an Inside Passage cruise. Book a fully guided exploration tour of some of Alaska’s top attractions. We’ve got an Alaska tour for you!
