EXAMPLE ITINERARY

Each Curated Tour is a tailor-made travel experience as we curate an itinerary just for you. The below is an example of a tour we've previously hosted in Alaska.

Arrivals - Day One

Welcome to the beautiful state of Alaska! Upon arrival in Anchorage you will be greeted by a transfer that will meet you outside of the arrivals terminal to take you directly to the hotel. Enjoy your first evening out on the beautiful patio overlooking the busiest sea plane base in the world.

Your adventures will officially start tomorrow!

Day Two

Explore Anchorage and the Surrounding Area

Today you will have the opportunity to choose how you would prefer to explore Alaska further. Our travel partner has curated some incredible excursion experiences for you to add to enhance your Alaskan experience.

Choose between the following:

Visit Talkeetna an eclectic town at the base of North America's tallest mountain, Denali. You will have a guide who will teach you all about Alaska on your journey to this charming town. Spend time on the walking tour getting to know more about Talkeetna, Denali, and more.
Dry-Land Dog Sledding is an opportunity to visit Talkeetna with a guide and enhance the experience further with a once in a lifetime opportunity to go dog sledding with an Iditarod team.
Explore Anchorage on your own with curated recommendations from Cherish and your travel guide.

Day Three

Glacier Hike

Start the day with an early morning breakfast before taking on an epic adventure.
Join your local expert guides on a journey north of Anchorage to one of the largest road accessible glaciers in Alaska. Experience local native culture at a cultural center. Then hike on top of the glacier! End the epic experience with a local lunch overlooking the beauty of the glacier that you just hiked on top of. Look out for moose and other wildlife as you enjoy lunch surrounded by nature.

Day Four

Hatcher Pass & Alaska Gold Mining

Start the day with a relaxing morning. Then enjoy an afternoon tour and hike to Hatcher Pass. Ascend into the Talkeetna Mountains just north of Anchorage. Enter the breathtaking alpine area known as Hatcher Pass, where the group will take an interpretive walk through the now-abandoned Independence Mine. Following this 45-minute tour, enjoy a panning demonstration and free time to pan on your own before continuing to a guided hike around the greater mine site along the Mill Loop Trail. This loop trail is an easy .9-mile hike with 177 feet of elevation gain (since we’re already at 3,500 feet in the Talkeetna Mountains, the views are incredible!).

Day Five

Overnight Excursion to the Kenai Fjords

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel before embarking on an overnight exploration of the Kenai Peninsula. Today you will visit Girdwood for a sky tram ride with epic surrounding views, a local lunch, and a walking tour through Alaska's Wildlife Conservation Center.

End the day in the Kenai Penisula in the port city of Seward. The evening is yours to enjoy or gather with your fellow travelers. Spend the night in your new Seward home. Make sure to pack an overnight bag to take with you on this adventure.

Day Six

Kenai Fjords by Boat & Alaskan Trains

Join our female boat captains out on the stunning Kenai Fjords for an unforgettable experience. Spot humpback whales, orcas, sea otters, and more on this 6 hour private boat tour of the Kenai Fjords. You will see an abundance of wildlife on this adventure with mind blowing natural surroundings. The boat experience will take you all the way to Prince Albert Glacier (weather-dependent) and you will have the opportunity to go fishing for glacier pieces!

After the boat tour, enjoy some free time to explore Seward and have a late lunch in Seward with curated recommendations from your Travel Guide. Today will end with one of Alaska's most iconic tours. Jump on a train from Seward back to Anchorage and travel in style with your Gold Star seats that include dinner and drinks.

Day Seven

Departures at your Leisure

Take the shuttle from the hotel back to the airport at the time that works best for your departure flight. Wave goodbye to the gorgeous state of Alaska as you head home after a fantastic trip.
