Travel and Arrival Details

 

Getting Here
Most of our guests fly into Anchorage. Many flights arrive late at night, which may be fine for an early morning start on Day 1, depending on where you are flying from and how jet-lagged you may be.

Keep in mind that with increasing challenges to the airline industry, it seems like more flights are delayed. If you arrive late and miss the pick up on the morning of Day 1, you will very likely miss the first 3 days of your trip if it includes sea kayaking.

If your trip with us starts with kayaking, it will be difficult, expensive and perhaps impossible for you to catch up with the group if you arrive late. Any expenses will be your responsibility, please plan accordingly.

After the trip
We usually plan to return to Anchorage between 5 pm and 7 pm on the last day of your trip. Please book your return flight accordingly as we will not be able to return you to Anchorage prior to that time. Many of our guests spend this night in Anchorage and we all get back together for dinner and celebrations later that night.

Where to stay in Anchorage
This is a tough one...personal taste in accommodation varies greatly.

Here's a few Hostels that are clean, comfortable and a bargain compared to anywhere else in town:

Arctic Adventure Hostel

26th Street International Hostel

Anchorage Guest House

Spenard Hostel International

One of our favorite B&B's is Susitna Place

The Arctic Fox Inn has been getting rave reviews from some of our guests lately.

Then there are the usual chains, convenient to the airport, Courtyard or Residence, Marriot(1-877-729-0197).

Other major chains are also downtown, Sheraton, Hilton etc. Anchorage rates are surprisingly high.

Please be careful of trying to go super-cheap. Unless you choose one of the hostels we recommend above, budget accommodation in Anchorage can be a real dive. You might like to check out comments on Trip Advisor before booking.
