8-Day Alaska Trip Ideas
If you can take 8 days for your Alaska vacation, you’ll have no problem seeing the state’s can’t-miss highlights—and you’ll even have time to wander off the beaten path a little!
The extra time will give you a broader picture of this incredible state and makes for an even more unforgettable experience. You’ll see the ever-popular Denali and Kenai Fjords national parks; you can also take a unique excursion up above the Arctic Circle, or go explore Alaska’s largest national park—Wrangell-St. Elias!
*Note: These sample itineraries offer inspiration as well as logistical information, so you can choose what you like and book your own Alaska vacation.
