Alaska Discovery RV Tours
are 34 days long, beginning in Hazelton, British
Columbia and ending in Kenai, Alaska.
Our routes are carefully planned and organized to show you the most
attractions at a comfortable pace. You will see all
the sights British Columbia, Yukon and Alaska have to offer,
including:
|
Majestic Mountains and Glaciers |
 |
 |
And, we also include the famous and beautiful Kenai Peninsula as part of the tour. Click on the Tour Itinerary link on the left to see a detailed breakdown of our tour.
By the end of the 34 days, you will have seen all of RVing in Alaska.
You may then choose to continue exploring and re-visiting your
favorite places in Alaska (as many do) before going home in small
friendly groups, or you may follow us back down the ALCAN to the
starting point where we will meet our next tour.
Many Alaska caravan tours require that you return with the caravan to the starting point before you have really finished seeing and enjoying Alaska. However, with us you truly will see and do more… plus, we really do have more fun than anyone else!
During
our tour, new places and experiences await you every day. To help
you fully appreciate and prepare for the things you will see and
experience, we provide daily orientation meetings and frequent
lectures by Spike Fortier, our Research Historian and Wagon Master.
And our tour narration is second to none - in fact, we are the only
Alaska caravan tour company that narrates as we drive! We also
provide you with strip maps as we lead you personally through the
course of the tour.
All pets are welcomed on our tours - we are animal lovers ourselves! We provide pet walkers and watchers for no charge when you are on the longer tours so you can relax and enjoy yourself knowing that your pet’s needs are also being attended to.
Traveling with us will relieve you of unnecessary stress and help
you avoid potential problems. For example, in the event of a
breakdown, you will not be stranded in an unfamiliar area. Our Tail
Gunner and mechanic will stay with you until you are up and running
and able to rejoin the group.
We prepare all vehicles for the trip by screening radiators, applying Transit-Shield where needed and performing a full inspection at no charge. Transit-Shield is also available for a front wrap on Class A's and 5th wheels for a small fee.
The cost of the tour is $6,973 and includes narration and lectures, RV park accommodations, tours, attractions, events, and guide fees. However, we will refund you for designated tours or events you are unable to or don't want to attend and so your final cost could easily be less than this amount! Click on the Tour Itinerary link on the left for more information. Also, further savings are likely because we also arrange for bulk fuel discounts at all designated Fuel Stations along the tour route.
Many Alaska Caravan tours are fixed priced. The problem with this approach is that you cannot take advantage of reduced rates and all events must be paid in advance even if you do not attend them all. There is no accounting of where or how much you have paid for anything.
