Im a 27 female Aussie who is visiting my sister who lives in Banff. I have from the 20th June to the 4th of July that I'm hoping to get return flights to anchorage and join a tour (likely tour dates 21st June to 3rd July). I love camping and hiking and was wondering if you had any tours that would suit that style during those dates?

We have 6 suitable tours that would fit your dates. Trips include: Alaska Kenai & Denali Adventure, Hike Alaska: Valdez and Wrangell St Elias, Hike Alaska: Glaciers and Denali, USA Road Trip — Yosemite, Canyons & Camping, USA Road Trip — Joshua Tree & the Southwest Parks, Canadian Rockies: National Parks Westbound OR Eastbound

Would like tour packages ultimate active Alaska. Prefer hotel room throughout the tour not camp. Can I choose cabin or room, and what would be the extra charges?

Our accommodation is not flexible on tours and would be as advertised. Many nights will include National Parks and this is an 'Active' tour, camping is often a part of the route. If you specifically want hotels, we would recommend a shorter 'Classic' tour such as the Alaska Kenai and Denali Adventure.

What should I pack for the hiking trip?

Is it competely safe? Also worried about the canoe-trip, but really want the hikes.

We have teams on the ground monitoring safety at all times. The safety of our travellers and CEOs is our top priority. Should you wish to opt out of the canoe activities, you are more than welcome to do so. Nothing is compulsory if you aren't comfortable with it.

Is accommodation provided during the tour?

  I am definitely more interested in the Alaska trips, I don't know much about the area so am not fussed. However, the glacier trip sounds very cool. How many spots are available on those 3 trips in Alaska, and when's the latest I can book?
- G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2025
  Alaska Kenai & Denali Adventure - 5 spaces left, Hike Alaska: Valdez and Wrangell St Elias - 3 spaces left, Hike Alaska: Glaciers and Denali - 1 space left. We would advise booking as soon as you can as these trips will likely sell out
