The largest state in the USA is home to some of the most beautiful scenery in the country and also home to some of the most famous overland routes in the world. Expedition Alaska takes you around the shoreline, through the mountains, past glaciers, through the arctic circle, and past countless wildlife sightings along the way. This breathtaking journey should be on anyones overland bucket list!
Everything about this expedition is epic from beginning to end. Come tame the vast Alaskan wilderness with our crew and experience every type of terrain imaginable either in your own rig or behind the wheel of a fulled tricked out overland rig, waiting there just for you.
With twilight as early as 3:30am and sunsets as late as 11:00pm, there is endless possibilities each day for exploring and soaking in as much scenery as possible.
Arguably the best overland experience in the USA is Alaska and whether you choose to drive your own rig or arrive via air and have a rental rig waiting for you, this is a must-do bucket list expedition! Not only will DestinationXtreme have every turn planned along the way, but if you chose to rent, there is a fleet of new, fully equipped overland rigs awaiting you. 4Runners, tacomas, and more, all with top of the line modifications, roof top tents, and kitchen gear are ours for the next two weeks to have a blast with. All camping gear included and some extras will be available for participants to rent as well.
A crew will be waiting there for us to go over each rig with each participant to make sure you fully understand every aspect of your gear and how to enjoy it most.
Our route each day will vary from mild to wild, with the most amazing scenery around every corner. Trip dates (August 8-22) are overland expedition travel dates and do not include your time getting to and from Alaska.
Expedition Alaska is designed to be experienced with a small group of likeminded individuals to keep the adventure going smoothly. This trip will be limited to 10 vehicles and participant families.
DestinationXtreme will have this trip fully planned for you from beginning to end and make sure you are completely prepared beforehand. Extra expenses for this trip include but are not limited to:
Starting in Anchorage, traveling south, then north and everywhere in between. Our goal is to leave no stone unturned and see all we can in the time allowed.
Our travel loop is designed to see the very best Alaska has to offer.
The short answer is yes, but there are some things to consider. This is a long duration overland style trip across the world including long flights or drives to and from the Alaska. Your kids should be old enough to understand, have experience with, and be comfortable with long days in the vehicle and camping. Every family is different but typically we find kids over the age of 6 do best with trips of this type.
August in Alaska is pleasant but temps can vary depending on how far north we are. We can experience mid 60s during the day and low 40s and night the farther north we travel.
Yes, although there is a large distance to cover, each day we will take breaks and there will be opportunities to be on your feet and some chances to explore too.
Our camping with be mostly dispersed, carry in, carry out style and supplies for this are available. We will include one night in the middle of the trip at a facility with real bathrooms and showers to freshen up.
We will certainly pass through areas with a diverse amount of wildlife and extra precautions will be taken at camp to ensure a safe time for all. This will be gone over with all participants but will include actions like sealing up all food and garbage and not leaving food and trash outside.
We recommend arriving the night before the 8th and resting up before we all meet for the first day of travel. There is a lot to do in the city and with Anchorage being a major flight hub you, may find a cheaper flight if you arrive a day or two early.
We will work with each participant to help develop their travel itinerary if arriving by vehicle - but don't underestimate how big Alaska is and the travel time to get to Anchorage. Allow yourself extra time at both US/Canada border crossings. If traveling from the extreme east USA or you would like to join a convoy, we will be taking the Trans Canada Highway from Quebec all the way west and you are welcome to travel with us.
With breathtaking scenery around each corner, every day of this journey will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you wanting more.
