help on itinerary
edit: okay i’m hearing yall and you despise my idea of a day trip to denali 😭 i really want to go white water rafting so will probably find something closer.
Hi! I’m heading to anchorage with 6 of my girl friends this month (6 days - 4 full and 2 travel) for my birthday. I would love to pack our itinerary with the best “don’t miss” things and need some help filling in the gaps or reviewing what we’re doing. restaurant recommendations are VERY welcome. what to bring recommendations are also welcome. context on what to expect is super welcome.
here’s what we currently have:
thursday: travel day
friday: anchorage hiking and exploring
\- hike flattop
\- explore anchorage
saturday: day trip to seward
\- rented car to seward
\- cruise tour 12:30-6:30ish
\- explore / eat + go home
\- maybe silly’s summer fair in anchorage OR find a fishing spot for salmon (all recommendations on spots are very welcome!)
sunday: day trip to denali
\- take car to denali
\- white water rafting 2-5:30ish
\- no exact plans after this, would love some recommendations on what to do (stay and hike around + eat, go home and stop in talkeetna, etc)
monday: relax and explore anchorage
\- no exact plans here
\- not sure if this should be our fishing day but we won’t have the car anymore so trying to be strategic
tuesday: travel day
i’m from texas so VERY excited to see some mountains, water, maybe a tree or two (!) and some wildlife. hoping for a relaxing and scenic trip and want to make sure i have a real idea on how to use our time. thanks !!!
