Alaska
Known as 'The Last Frontier', Alaska is vast and diverse in landscapes, and wildlife that roam its preserved wilderness.
Alaska Photography Tour Packages
Alaska has long been known as ‘The Last Frontier.’ Its size and diversity is so immense that it is downright overwhelming. And perhaps Alaska should be overwhelming considering all that is located here. The 49th State is the country’s largest, encompassing 663,268 square miles, which is over twice the size of Texas.
The sheer volume and variety of wildlife in Alaska is incredible. With a wide-open landscape and a coastline that spans over 6,500 miles, Alaska meets the needs of a diverse group of creatures to flourish. Bears thrive here. An estimated 30,000 brown bears live in Alaska while polar bear live and hunt on the edges of arctic pack ice. The icy waters of Kenai Fjords are perfect for marine wildlife including Orca & Humpback Whales, Sea Lion, Otters, as well as a variety of seabirds including Bald Eagles and Horned Puffins.

Experience The Beauty Of The Northern Lights
The Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, are one of Alaska's most spectacular natural phenomena. This dazzling light display occurs when charged particles from the sun collide with Earth's atmosphere, creating vibrant colors that dance across the night sky.
Prime viewing locations in Alaska include Fairbanks, Denali National Park, and the Arctic Circle, where the clear, cold nights provide the perfect backdrop for this breathtaking celestial show.
