How safe is Alaska?

Alaska I vast and gorgeous. I reside in a small town named Delta. The end of the Alaskan hwy. Every turn you take you shall be taken by the beast Alaska is. Alaska is wild it is perfect for wild ladies. If you enjoy dog mushing a bit of cold and the craziest most intense experiences then you will love Alaska!

Is Alaska worth visiting?

Group travel

If you love snow, nature, mountains and animals, you have to go to Alaska! We did the trip with six girls and it wasn’t that expensive at all for us. Sharing the costs is always a good way to save money. You have to know that the activities are more expensive then another vacation. I would love to go in the summer to, because that’s more fun to hike and be more outside.

Solo travel

Female solo traveller visiting Alaska from the UK. Stayed in mainly hostels to save money on excursions as they are quite expensive. I felt safe and everyone was very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Hired a car using TURO for the first few days of my trip, 1st time I’ve done this and couldn’t fault it and was much cheaper than normal car hire companies. Itinerary Anchorage Girdwood Whittier Seward Eagle River / Hatcher Pass Alaska Railroad from Anchorage to Talkeetna Alaska Railroad from Talkeetna to Fairbanks. I highly recommend the Gold Star service. Excursions Blackstone Bay Jetski Tour (from Whittier) Kenai Fjords National Park Cruise 7.5hr Real Alaska Tour (Seaveys Ididaride) Northern Lights Tour (Fairbanks)
