2/3 Day trip to Kodiak from Anchorage
Hi,
I'm going to be in Alaska between 8th May and 13 May (flexible). I'll be in Anchorage, does anyone know of a short tour to Kodiak Island...? I can't find much by searching google - ideally I'd like something that might include Bears, Whales, Gold rush type stuff. |

Over 200 miles, and if in a small airplane you are going to be traveling 130-150 mph. Go down the Kenai Peninsula. Pretty area. What you think Alaska looks like. Take a flight out of Kenai with Maverick Air to some of there destinations. They fly an Otter at about 500' and you get to see lots of sights. We fished with them at Wolverine Creek. Take the Kenai Fiords tour out of Seward and you will see glaciers, orkas, seals, and eagles. Check with the Safeway in Anchorage and see if they still sell the entertainment book that supports the Special Olympics. Is about $100 and gives you lots of 1/2 price items. The Flight seeing of Denali will just about pay for the book. |

If you're going to make a reservation and use the Toursaver to take advantage of a 2-for-1, you'll need to give them the serial number of the Toursaver book. http://www.toursaver.com I got mine 3 days after ordering. |
