This ride is sometimes bad mouthed but if you want to get a great introduction to the park and experience amazing wildlife viewing, there is only one better way..... That's to hike the park. The ride is long but the drivers are personable and knowledgeable. Stops are spaced out for convince and the wildlife steals the show. It was a... More

Like being on a school trip again. Great experience and a chance to meet new friends. More

This roadtrip of a life time is all you will expect and more. Private vehicles can only go in about 11 miles and then have to turn around and come back out.

The views were great, just don't look over the edge at times and be prepared for a 5-6 hour trip one way. More

We loved the views and all the animals, bears, lynx, wolves you name it we saw it! More

We reserved our nine hour bus ride to Eielson Visitor's Center was in advance, as recommended. Unfortunately, we had a rainy day. The first 15 miles of the park road are paved (visitors can drive their own vehicle that far.), after that only the park shuttles can take you further into Denali. Rainy day + muddy roads = bus windows... More
