This leisurely self-driving tour by car through Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula (fondly called “The Kenai” by Alaskans) in Southcentral Alaska offers you time to enjoy several Alaska state and national parks, go fishing for halibut, enjoy marine wildlife cruises into Kenai Fjords National Park and discover the engaging Kenai outdoor activities that draw so many Alaska locals here on vacation. You’ll visit Seward, Homer, Cooper Landing, and Soldotna and cruise through Kenai Fjords National Park to see glaciers and spot wildlife, from whales to sea otters. You will also have an opportunity to go sport fishing for halibut in Homer, the “Halibut Capital of the World,” or to take a bear-viewing trip from Homer to the Katmai Coast. In Seward, you can visit the Alaska SeaLife Center for an up-close experience with marine life and to explore Exit Glacier. At the end of this Kenai Peninsula tour, you may want to add an optional excursion that takes you to the impressive Spencer Glacier for a rafting tour with a short ride on the Alaska Railroad.

If you would like a specific room type, in addition to the upgraded program, please ask us about availability and cost difference.
All journeys between Anchorage and Whittier are in standard seating as deluxe dome cars are not available on that route.
