What if it is? Seems like a good way to inform people on a message board. People who actually have done it can tell you about it, not the people paid to do the advertising.

My general advice (based upon many similar trips) is to go with as small a group as you can find. Three to four people in a small Land Rover and small campsites provides a much, much more intimate nature experience. The last thing you want is a large group of people confined to big buses and crowded campsites.

I recently returned from a 10 day land tour in Alaska. I used Globus tours. First time I was ever on a tour… I had no complaints other than there was never enough time to go shopping!! Lots of activities, fine hotels and many extra excursions that were available.

Alaska is America's "last frontier". Therefore. if you are healthy enough and have enough time (3 to 4 weeks), then the best way to go is to "rough it" and go with a few of your family or friends and make your own schedule. Go in the summer. Fly into Anchorage and rent a car or camper. Take fishing equipment and get a license. Get an Alaskan Milepost Guide before you leave and plan a schedule. Denali is a "must-see". Get bear repellant and watch out for any mama moose with calves. Buy insect repellant and insect mesh head nets and gloves. If you are adventurous you can sleep in an SUV near the road or use a tent in a campground. If less adventurous stay in motels and day trip out from Anchorage and Fairbanks. Anchorage is the perfect city to rollerblade in. The whole city is crisscrossed with asphalt trails designed for bicycles and rollerblades (no cars). When I was there in 1988 there were a lot of Europeans in Anchorage. However you do it Alaska is a VERY exciting place!
