About this activity

Experience Anchorage beyond typical sightseeing on this immersive, locally guided city tour. Discover Alaskan history, local stories, aviation, and dramatic natural landscapes—all in one thoughtfully paced experience.

What truly sets this tour apart is a scenic drive along Turnagain Arm, one of Alaska’s most iconic and must-see destinations. With towering mountains, sweeping tidal flats, waterfalls, and frequent wildlife sightings, Turnagain Arm delivers a true Alaska experience just beyond the city—and it’s not included on any other Anchorage city tour.

From downtown Anchorage to Cook Inlet viewpoints and beyond the city limits, this tour is designed to help you truly understand Anchorage while experiencing the natural beauty that defines Alaska.
