Alaska Travel Agent Expert

I love my work as an Alaska travel agent since the state is a dream destination for anybody who visits it. Alaska is a terrific place to go if you're looking for adventure and the great outdoors. From Fairbanks to Anchorage, one of my favorite Alaskan escapes is to drive between the two cities. This is the route to take if you want to see some of the best of Alaska's scenic beauty. When you're close to either city, a metamorphosis takes place - one that transforms a barren and snow-covered landscape to a pine and snow-covered wonderland - a peaceful and idyllic place to explore and set your thoughts on adventure. As you go along you'll see ice and glaciers, valleys, firs, and hillsides. There are plenty of places to stop and snap pictures on the course of your travels. Only in Alaska can you be privy to natural phenomena, such as the Aurora Borealis, or the Northern Lights - a true natural treat when you choose to stay in Fairbanks. The magnificent boat ride from old Skagway to Juenau, is another travel highlight. Between coastal communities and the rest of the state, the Marine Highway System is a crucial artery. This kind of travel, with its constant exposure to breathtaking scenery, is one you won't soon forget. Deep fjords and islands with lighthouses and quiet fishing communities await you on your trip across the glacial waters. Cruise the waters for you will be rewarded with sightings of amazing animals, such as the humpback whale, porpoise, sea lion, and seal. You can witness bald eagles in flight from the deck of your vessel as well as hear the barks of seals. Set your sights on the horizon, as you will always be mesmerized by the skies during dawn and sunset. Check out Admiralty Island, a great place to watch bears, or take a sightseeing plane to see the scenery from on high. Visit the Russian-settled town of Sitka and view the totem poles that Native Americans once carved along a trail. You might also think of traversing the Yukon Railroad if you plan a Skagway adventure. Whatever you wish to do, you can make your Alaskan travel dream come true. Allow me to help you with your travel planning. Contact me anytime by phone or email.

For your next adventure travel to Alaska for hunting and fishing, you have come to the right source. I have lived in Alaska most of my life and I have been a Travel Agent here since 1997. Whether you are looking for an all-inclusive package, a guide or just want to hunt or fish solo, let me get you the best deals out there. With the vast amount of wildlife hunting to include deer, black bear, brown bear, moose, caribou, Dall sheep, Rocky Mountain goat, or the muskox, bison, and elk (which are available for hunting exclusively on a drawing permit basis) I will get you the best deals out there! Fishing Charters from Whittier, Homer, Seward, Sitka, Ketchikan, and Valdez offer saltwater fishing for halibut, salmon, rockfish, and lingcod. Most have an excellent reputation and customer return rates are high. They offer full day halibut/salmon charters and long-range halibut/salmon/rockfish charters. Overnight range offered too. Be sure to book at least 6 months to 1 year prior because these charters fill up fast. You can even go on a charter for shrimp and crabbing.
