Denali National Park Tours offer the opportunity for full-time wildlife viewing and the chance to sit back, relax and let a guide share stories of history, culture and geography.
“The tours offered by Denali Park Village allow for visitors to get a sense of the beautiful scenery, native animals and history of the area,” said Dominic Canale, district manager for Aramark, Alaska Operations. “Most people are awed by the wildlife, while others are impressed by the subarctic ecosystem or expansive tundra landscape.”
While guides can’t predict or guarantee wildlife showing, visitors often spot Dall sheep, moose caribou, wolves and grizzly bears. More than 130 different bird species inhabit the area.
“Denali Park Village is a wonderful place to explore, discover and learn about our culture and all the beauty this land has to offer,” Canale said.
The Tundra Wilderness Tour’s expert naturalists focus on land animals and Alaska’s pristine beauty.
