What makes an Alaska adventure trip special?
An Alaska adventure trip is characterized by a focus on intense nature experiences and exciting adventures.

Whether special offers for photographers, hikers, or nature lovers – with us, you will find the perfect Alaska adventure trip.
The best time to travel to Alaska
The best time to travel to Alaska greatly depends on your individual interests. The summer (June to August) entices with pleasant temperatures and is great for hiking and wildlife watching. In the autumn (September to October), the forests turn into a sea of colors, and the chances of seeing the magical Northern Lights increase. The winter (November to April) is all about Northern Lights viewing, with special tours and accommodations offered to optimally experience this unique natural spectacle. Pay attention to the tips for the best travel time at Berge & Meer.
Nationalparks: Discover the pristine nature of Alaska
The National Parks of Alaska are the heart and soul of every Alaska adventure trip. They offer an unparalleled diversity of landscapes and wildlife that will captivate you. We guide you to the most impressive locations and enable unforgettable encounters with nature.
Denali National Park: Home of North America's highest peak
Denali National Park is an absolute must on your Alaska tour. Here, the highest peak in North America, Denali, stands majestically, providing a breathtaking backdrop for your adventures.

You can find more information about Denali National Park at Diamir.
Kenai Fjords National Park: Glaciers, fjords, and marine wildlife
Kenai Fjords National Park is a paradise for nature lovers and offers a unique combination of glaciers, fjords, and a rich marine wildlife. Take a boat trip through the fjords and watch whales, sea lions, and seals in their natural habitat. For experienced hikers, the challenging Harding Icefield Trail is recommended, leading you to a breathtaking view of the vast Harding Icefield.

Alaska Adventure Trip: Plan, Duration and Budget Optimisation
A well-planned Alaska adventure trip is the key to an unforgettable experience. We assist you with the organisation, choosing the right trip duration, and creating a realistic budget so that you can fully enjoy your journey.
Group tour or individual trip: Weighing up the pros and cons
The decision between a group tour and an individual trip depends on your personal preferences. Group tours offer the advantage of complete organisation and the opportunity to benefit from the experience of our tour guides. Additionally, you can quickly form social connections with other travellers. On the other hand, individual trips provide the flexibility to plan your own route and discover Alaska's highlights at your own pace. Weigh the pros and cons to find the travel style that suits you, as also offered by Moja Travel.
Travel duration: Offers for every time frame
We offer you Alaska adventure trips for every time frame, from short bear watching tours to multi-week round trips. If you're short on time, we recommend a 1-day bear watching tour where you can see these fascinating animals in their natural habitat. For a more comprehensive exploration of Alaska, our 10 to 22-day round trips take you to the country's most beautiful national parks and highlights. Another option is cruises with a land programme, giving you the chance to explore Alaska both from the water and on land. Consider the different travel times also available with Gebeco.
Budget planning: Factors that affect the price
The costs of an Alaska adventure trip depend on various factors, including the travel time (season), the type of accommodation (hotels, lodges, camping), transportation (rental car, bus, train, flight), and the chosen activities and excursions. During the peak season (summer), prices are generally higher than in the off-season. The choice of accommodation also significantly affects the budget. Camping is the most affordable option, while hotels and lodges are more expensive. Transportation is also a consideration. A rental car offers the greatest flexibility, but it also comes with higher costs compared to using public transport. Plan your budget carefully to optimally enjoy your Alaska adventure trip.
Price examples and savings tips
To assist you with budget planning, we offer various savings tips and price examples. Take advantage of our early booking discounts to benefit from reduced prices. Also, look out for our last-minute offers, which give you the opportunity to book an Alaska adventure trip at a reduced price at short notice.

Arrival and Transport: How to travel conveniently through Alaska
A smooth journey and well-organised local transport are crucial for a successful Alaska adventure trip. We provide you with all the essential information to ensure you can travel comfortably and safely through Alaska.
Flying to Alaska: International Airports and Flight Connections
The majority of travellers reach Alaska via Anchorage International Airport (ANC), which offers good flight connections to many international airports. There are regular flights from Frankfurt (FRA) to Anchorage, making for a convenient journey. Check the various flight connections and book your flight in advance to benefit from more affordable prices.
Means of Transport in Alaska: Flexibility for Exploration
In Alaska, you have various means of transport available to explore the region. A rental car provides you with the greatest flexibility and allows you to discover the most remote places in Alaska. However, bear in mind that road conditions in Alaska can be challenging, and good insurance is essential. Alternatively, you can also rely on bus and train to reach the main cities and national parks. The Denali Star Train offers a comfortable and scenic way to travel from Anchorage to Fairbanks. For remote regions and islands, domestic flights are often the only option. Choose the mode of transport that best suits your needs. The flexibility of a rental car is also highlighted by AE-Erlebnisreisen.
Practical Tips: Preparation and Safety for Your Alaska Trip
Good travel preparation and adherence to safety instructions are essential for a carefree Alaska adventure trip. We provide you with all the important tips to ensure you're well-prepared.
Travel Preparation: Visa, Vaccinations, and Packing List
For entry into Alaska, you generally need an ESTA visa, which you can apply for online. Make sure you are aware of the current entry requirements and apply for the visa well before your trip. A travel insurance is also recommended to protect yourself against unforeseen events. Please feel free to contact us to find the right insurance for your trip.
Health Advice: Vaccination Recommendations and Mosquito Protection
No specific vaccinations are required for Alaska, but it's advisable to check your vaccination status and update if necessary. Adequate mosquito protection is essential in Alaska, as mosquitoes can be particularly troublesome during the summer months. Use an effective mosquito repellent and wear long clothing to protect yourself from bites.
Packing List: Weatherproof Clothing, Hiking Boots, and Mosquito Spray
When it comes to the packing list for your Alaska adventure, make sure to focus on weatherproof clothing, as the weather in Alaska can be very changeable. Pack warm clothes, rain gear, and windproof jackets to be prepared for all eventualities. Comfortable hiking boots are also essential, as you'll be spending a lot of time outdoors. Don't forget your mosquito spray to protect yourself from the pesky insects.
Safety Instructions and Behavioural Guidelines: Interaction with Wildlife
Alaska is home to many wild animals, including bears, moose, and wolves. Always maintain a safe distance from the animals and never feed them. Store your food securely to avoid attracting animals. Familiarise yourself with the behavioural guidelines for dealing with wildlife and follow the rangers' instructions.
Behaviour in the Wilderness: Orientation and Emergency Equipment
If you're travelling in the wilderness, you should be able to orient yourself well and have the emergency equipment with you. Learn how to read a map and use a compass. Pack a first-aid kit, sufficient food and water, as well as a signal whistle. Check the weather conditions before your hike and plan your route carefully.
