Tour Privado Turnagain Arm e Portage Valley
Descrição
Explore o belo Turnagain Arm e Portage Valley com um guia privado e local. De Anchorage, viajaremos pela pitoresca Seward Highway. Uma das apenas 13 rodovias nos EUA com a distinção de "All American Road". Ao longo do caminho teremos grandes oportunidades para ver e fotografar a vida selvagem e vistas panorâmicas. Primeiro paramos no belo Hotel Alyeska e na cidade de esqui de Girdwood. Pegue um bonde panorâmico opcional até o topo do Monte Alyeska para almoçar com vista. Próxima parada em Portage, onde você embarcará no mv Ptarmigan para um cruzeiro opcional de uma hora pelo cenário deslumbrante do Lago Portage, pontilhado de icebergs. Após o cruzeiro, pare no Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, uma organização sem fins lucrativos dedicada a preservar a vida selvagem do Alasca. Depois, volte para Anchorage e desfrute de um passeio pela cidade narrado, incluindo todos os melhores restaurantes.

Geleira Portage
Seward
Em seguida, aprecie as vistas ao longo do incomparável Turnagain Arm, um pedaço belíssimo do Alasca, lar de uma infinidade de vida selvagem, incluindo carneiros-de-dall, cabras-montesas, boose, baleias-beluga, ursos-negros e espécies de aves migratórias.
Girdwood é uma cidade resort na extensão sul do Município de Anchorage. Localizada perto do final do Turnagain Arm de Cook Inlet, Girdwood fica em um vale no sudoeste das Montanhas Chugach, cercada por sete geleiras que alimentam uma série de riachos, que convergem dentro do vale ou deságuam diretamente no braço.
Bonde Aéreo Alyeska
Potter Marsh, no extremo sul do Anchorage Coastal Wildlife Refuge, é um descanso ideal de Anchorage para observadores de pássaros e outros observadores da vida selvagem. Da Seward Highway, pouco antes da curva à esquerda para o estacionamento Potter Marsh, você é presenteado com uma vista deslumbrante do Turnagain Arm. Um calçadão de madeira serpenteia 1.550 pés da área de estacionamento através do pântano e através de aberturas aquáticas e juncos, habitat perfeito para uma rica variedade de pássaros. Do final de abril a setembro, gansos canadenses, marrecos-do-norte, patos-de-lona, falaropos-de-pescoço-vermelho, mergulhões-de-pescoço-vermelho e mergulhões-do-norte usam esta área úmida. Procure ninhos de águia nos choupos perto da base do penhasco usando binóculos ou uma luneta.
Aventuras na Grande Terra
Beluga Point Site é um local arqueológico ao longo do Turnagain Arm de Cook Inlet. Foi adicionado ao Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos em 30 de março de 1978. Artefatos da área são evidências de habitação humana antiga. Os artefatos de Beluga Point North 1 (BPN1) têm de 8.000 a 10.000 anos e acredita-se que sejam evidências da habitação mais antiga no município de Anchorage. Beluga Point também é uma área de observação da vida selvagem. As baleias beluga podem ser avistadas sazonalmente de julho a agosto, pois centenas de cetáceos visitam Cook Inlet para se alimentar da corrida do salmão do Pacífico.
O AWCC acolhe animais feridos e órfãos durante todo o ano, proporcionando recintos espaçosos e cuidados de qualidade aos animais. Aqui você pode ver e fotografar de perto os animais icônicos do Alasca que não podem ser soltos na natureza.

Other than a hiccup with the dining at the top of the tram not being available, we had a great day on Turnagain Arm. Dawn was a wonderful guide--offered good information along the way but also was sensitive to our need for "quiet time" as we were tired from two weeks of traveling in Alaska. Good balance overall, and a gorgeous day to see Portage Glacier!
Hello! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a nice note! We will make sure to pass this along to Dawn as well!
Eight hours in Anchorage? It’s a “must do”….with Mike!!? The man was the perfect guide for this trip.
Thank you for the nod to our guide Mike. He is a top guide in our group of Alaskans who serve as our knowledgeable and very fun tour leaders. Our staff is clever and accommodating for our Anchorage Tour and our Turnagain Arm Tour, as well as all the other tours we provide to visitors.
We had an incredible day on this tour with our guide John. He was very knowledgeable friendly and provided great insight. He also had a lot of good suggestions for additional experiences while we’re in Alaska that we hope to do on a future trip.
Hi there, Thank you for your wonderful review! We are glad you enjoyed your Anchorage City Tour with John. Next time you are in Alaska give us a ring, we have so many incredible things to show you across the state! Cheers,
Did the Turnagain Arm Tour and had a blast with our guide, John! We was both engaging and informative. Loved the first hand knowledge he shared with us. We lucked out with a GORGEOUS day and got some awesome pictures! Only downside was trying to get lunch at the top of the tram at Alyeska, but that was on us for choosing to go that way. Warning for others... it was over an hour wait for food and seating was a nightmare. John, however, was great and so patient while waiting for us. We ended up just switching the food to go and ate in the bus. Thank you John for our outstanding experience!!!!
We had to change our plans at the last minute. I called GLA at 9am and by 10:30am we were on our tour. John was terrific. The experience was professional and fun!
So glad you enjoyed your tour, and we were able to help you fill your day last minute!
I can't say enough about planning Alaskan excursions with Steve at Greatland Adventures. My husband and I visited Alaska for the first time August 6-15, 2019. We were looking for multiple excursions in both Anchorage and Seward and were interested in smaller group type of activities as I wanted to photograph and video the experiences which is hard to do with a lot of people. Steve worked with me to provide what he could through his company, but ALSO worked with other tour operators to plan the perfect trip. The Turnagain Arm tour was AMAZING! We had a wonderful driver Orion who took us to the Alyeska resort, the Wildlife Conservation Center, and a Portage Glacier Cruise. I was able to get some amazing images of the beautiful vistas and local wildlife. Orion also provided us with historical information about Alaska along the way. Steve helped me to find the right hotels prior to our trip. He worked with 4 other tour operators to get us on an ATV tour, a helicopter and dogsledding tour, a whale watching tour, and a zip lining tour. This company is terrific and our trip would not have been what it was without the help of Steve and his wonderful staff!! WE CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!
Thank you so very much for your kind words! We do our absolute best to provide first class customer service to all our guests, from inquiry, booking, tour operations, and on to the follow up! We are so glad Steve was able to accommodate you in all aspects of your Alaskan vacation, and Orion showed you a truly memorable time on the Turnagain Arm! Best Regards, Rochelle
Our family of eight including two children took this tour today. Steve was our guide and he was friendly and informative. We took the tram ride up Mt. Alyeska and then on to the Portage Lake and Glacier tour. We finished up with a visit to the Wildlife Conservation Center. A wonderful and memorable day. Thanks Steve!
I had a great time with your group! Thank you for sharing your experience with others.
Absolutely fantastic trip today to Turnagain Arm and Portage Valley. Our guide Vern was knowledgeable and friendly, with a story for every occasion. All aspects of our day from initial booking to return home were professional and hassle free. Our group of 8 all loved it and will recommend this company for years to come. Thanks Greatland Adventures - Aussie 8
Thank you Jenny S! Vern mentioned that he had a really great time with your group. We are glad that you enjoyed the tour and the personalized service that a private tour provides. We really hope you can come back and have some more fun with us in the future. Cheers.
