How to get here
Most of our guests fly into Anchorage. Many flights arrive late at night, which may be fine for an early morning start on Day 1, depending on where you are flying from and how jet-lagged you may be.

Keep in mind that with increasing challenges to the airline industry, it seems like more flights are delayed. If you arrive late and miss the pick up on the morning of Day 1, you will very likely miss the first 3 days of your trip if it includes sea kayaking. Please plan accordingly.

Where to stay in Anchorage
This is a tough one...personal taste in accommodation varies greatly.

Here's a few Hostels that are clean, comfortable and a bargain compared to anywhere else in town:

Arctic Adventure Hostel

26th Street International Hostel

Anchorage Guest House

Spenard Hostel International

One of our favorite B&B's is Susitna Place

The Arctic Fox Inn has been getting rave reviews from some of our guests lately.

Then there are the usual chains, convenient to the airport, Courtyard or Residence, Marriot(1-877-729-0197).

Other major chains are also downtown, Sheraton, Hilton etc. Anchorage rates are surprisingly high.

Please be careful of trying to go super-cheap. Unless you choose one of the hostels we recommend above, budget accommodation in Anchorage can be a real dive. You might like to check out comments on Trip Advisor before booking.
