Anchorage Private Tours |
|
Welcome to Anchorage, Alaska! Founded in 1914 as a work camp for the Alaska Railroad, today this urban centre is only a short drive from the true Alaskan wilderness. Take a private Anchorage tour and learn about the history of this northern city - and what it's like to live in a place where a moose might wander into your backyard.
Anchorage was dealt a devastating blow in 1964 when a powerful earthquake struck; you can learn about its impact at Earthquake Park - also a prime spot to view the downtown skyline. The Iditarod Trail Headquarters is an excellent place to visit for those who are interested in knowing more about Alaska's legendary dog sled race. If you're doubting your chances of seeing a grizzly bear in the wild, you're guaranteed a sighting at the Alaska Zoo, the only zoo in North America that specializes in Northern animals.
Your guide is looking forward to showing you around their hometown on your private Anchorage tour. |
