Alaska Railroad Aurora Winter Fairbanks naar Anchorage One Way
Beschrijving
Ervaar de pracht van de winter in Alaska vanuit het comfort van een warme treinwagon, compleet met comfortabele stoelen, grote ramen en aan boord dineren. De Aurora Wintertrein reist tussen Fairbanks en Anchorage, waardoor de 12 uur durende 12-uur durende reis op zondag, evenals een selectie van mid-week vertrek (woensdag en / of vrijdag) van december tot maart. Flagstop-service wordt aangeboden langs het 50-mijls traject van roadless backcountry ten zuiden van Hurricane Gulch. Terwijl de Aurora Wintertrein hetzelfde traject rijdt als de zomer Denali Star Train, zijn de uitzichten opvallend verschillend; de levendige kleuren van het zomerlandschap van Alaska maken plaats voor de stille sereniteit van ongerepte sneeuw. Op een heldere dag stijgt een spectaculair uitzicht op Denali op boven de Susitna-rivier. En overal langs de sporen kan een toeziend oog worden beloond met het zien van een eland in het wild.

We took the train from Anchorage to Fairbanks then 4 days last returned to Anchorage. It was one of the highlights of our time in Alaska. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The one way trip is 12hrs but it didn't feel like it. We could move around free along the length of the train and there were areas to stand. We meet some wonderful fellow travelers and the atmosphere was very enjoyable. It's the best was to see all the mountains in our opinion. Highly recommend.
Long, but nice ride. It was more fun travel than travel from one town to another. Pleasant rail staff, kept us informed with history and what to see along the ride, and a good food too.
Great senary. You can see the whole snow covered Denali ridge. It's so beautiful. The staffs are very friendly and helpful too
It’s a long way from Fairbanks to Talkeetna on the train but do it. We did it on a group tour and enjoyed it very much. Staff were young and energetic. Big viewing windows. Decent seats. You can get up and move around from side to side if you get a glimpse of a moose or Denali. Adequate snack bar. Take a meal in the dining car. The pot roast was very good. Tip: diners were called from front of train (car A) to the rear (car D) so lunch for us wasn’t until around 3pm and we were very hungry! Take that into consideration Might have to buy or bring a snack. Recommend!!
This was a super interesting ride with great information and breathtaking views. Everything was done in such an efficient way that getting from Fairbanks to Anchorage was so smooth. I easily checked in a bag and everyone at the station and working the train were incredibly nice. Again, the views were amazing. I did wish that the lights could have been shut off at times so you didn't have the glare in pictures through the window, but that's probably for safety reasons.
Our train trip was amazing! Breathtaking views, comfortable seating, and great food. Our conductor “Vern” added so much fun and information to our trip!
A long, comfy, scenic trip. Spotted moose and eagles along the way. Staff shared their knowledge along the way. Two stops, Denali and Talkeetna, allowed us to stretch our legs and breathe in some crisp air. Opted for lunch and dinner sitting.
The train station has bathrooms and a gift shop. You can take pictures outside. Upon arrival we gave our luggage with our cruise luggage tag and they handled delivery all the way to cruise ship, wonderful! No hassle.
We had a great family trip on the winter train from Fairbanks to Anchorage. Our conductor F Long and assistants Daniel and Dustin were awesome. They were available for questions and took the time to answer them. Our 12 hour journey didn't seem that long. We were able to play games provided on the train a long as we left tables available for others. We were able to walk through the different cars as we needed to. To make breakfast, lunch or dinner reservations, the host would go through each car. We chose lunch as we liked the options better and had to sit across from people we didn't know. This was in order to make room for those who wanted to eat, I get it but was a little uncomfortable for those who do not wish to engage. We were told when wildlife was spotted and the train slowed down so everyone could see which was much appreciated. Scenic sites were also pointed out along the way. There is a bar and snack bar if you would like a drink or small lunch or dinner. We brought snacks and food and drinks on the train, bags are not checked for these items so I'm guessing they are allowed . Check in process was great, staff were very helpful and informative. Looking forward to another trip on a different route!
The scenery from the train was amazing. We saw moose, wolves, and bald eagles as well as many tracks in the snow. Food and drink service was plentiful and well managed. The guides on the train made announcements with interesting facts along the way. The train stopped long enough to get off and stretch our legs at both Denali and Talkeetna. Twelve hours is a bit long though and I wish we had brought some cards or a little game to play during the less stunning parts of the ride.
