Individual arrival of participants to Anchorage – welcome to Alaska! You will be warmly greeted at the airport by your German-speaking tour guide. Afterwards, you will be transferred to your hotel, where you will have time to relax and settle in. In the evening, there will be an initial meeting with the entire tour group. This will give you the opportunity to get to know the other participants and learn more about the itinerary. Your tour guide will give you an introduction to the upcoming adventures and will be available to answer any questions. Look forward to the start of an unforgettable journey through the breathtaking wilderness of Alaska and the Yukon!

After breakfast, we leave Alaska's largest city. Our route takes us north along the George Parks Highway towards Denali National Park. Even along the way, breathtaking scenery awaits, with constantly changing panoramas: mighty glaciers glitter in the distance, while beaver dams can be spotted in the rivers. In the late afternoon, you have the opportunity to participate in an approximately one-hour glacier flight near Mt. Denali (optional). Weather permitting, this adventure is an unforgettable experience – the aerial views offer spectacular vistas of the snow-capped peaks and the breathtaking wilderness.

Today, a scenic highlight of your tour awaits you. This morning, you'll depart for the Denali Wildlife Tour. A special park shuttle bus will take you deep into one of North America's most impressive landscapes. On a clear day, you have the chance to see the majestic Denali – at 6,193 meters, the highest peak in the USA. The park's wildlife is also impressive: with a bit of luck, you might spot wolves, Dall sheep, elk, caribou, or even grizzly bears. A particular highlight of the tour is Wonder Lake, the largest lake in the area, located roughly in the center of the park. This region is especially known for its abundant wildlife and offers numerous photo opportunities.

After breakfast, we'll head back onto the George Parks Highway. Around midday, you'll reach Fairbanks, the city of the midnight sun, which is only about 320 kilometers from the Arctic Circle. In the afternoon, you'll have time to explore the city and its surroundings. Fairbanks offers numerous attractions and all the amenities of a modern city. Visit one of the interesting museums that provide fascinating insights into Alaska's geology and history. Alternatively, you can enjoy the atmosphere with a leisurely stroll along the Chena River and through the charming downtown area. A highly recommended optional paddle steamer trip on the Chena River offers the opportunity to learn more about life in the region and, with a bit of luck, to observe wildlife.

Today we leave the urban environment and immerse ourselves once again in untouched nature. Along the way, we pass countless rivers and lakes, while the landscape unfolds before us in all its diversity. Along the way, you'll get an impressive view of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline crossing the Tanana River. The famous Alaska Highway begins in Delta Junction. We'll follow it for a while before turning onto the spectacular Top of the World Highway. This route takes us through alpine plateaus and a fascinating landscape of boreal coniferous forest and tundra. At Little Gold Creek, we cross the highest border crossing between the USA and Canada. Our route takes us past quirky places like Chicken, Action Jackson, and Jack Wade Camp before we finally reach the Yukon River. We then take a ferry to Dawson City – a town that still breathes the spirit of the Gold Rush.

Today you'll explore the historic gold rush town of Dawson City, located at the mouth of the Klondike River where it flows into the Yukon. Here you can experience the exciting history of the gold rush firsthand – and if you like, you can even try your luck at panning for gold. Visit the Gold Rush Museum or the famous Jack London Cabin, dedicated to the writer and adventurer. Stroll through the charming old town with its lovingly restored buildings and let yourself be transported back to the exciting era of the Gold Rush. In the evening, a special highlight awaits you: a visit to the legendary Diamond Tooth Gertie's Casino. Here you will experience a captivating show with cancan dancers and can enjoy the historic atmosphere with a drink.

Today's itinerary includes another scenic highlight – the drive along the Dempster Highway. This unique road is the only connection to the Arctic Ocean town of Inuvik in the Northwest Territories. Along the way, you'll encounter the impressive Tombstone Mountains, whose rugged peaks and vast tundra landscape are among the most beautiful natural spectacles in the region. Especially in late summer, the surroundings transform into a sea of reds, yellows, and oranges. In the afternoon, we'll take a trip up Midnight Dome, Dawson City's local mountain. From up here, you'll have a spectacular view of the city, the Yukon River, and the surrounding valleys – a perfect spot for unforgettable photos.

Today we're taking the Klondike Highway back to Whitehorse. During the drive, we'll be treated to breathtaking views of the mighty Yukon River – at 3,200 kilometers long, one of the longest waterways in North America. Along the way, we'll stop at the famous Five Finger Rapids – a formidable stretch of rapids that once proved fatal to many paddle steamers. Old post stations, rest stops, and small settlements also tell tales of the adventurous era of the great gold rush over 100 years ago. In the afternoon we arrive in Whitehorse. Here you have the opportunity to visit the impressive Miles Canyon, which was formed by ancient lava flows. From the historic suspension bridge, there is a breathtaking view of the steep, 20-meter-high basalt walls and the Yukon River flowing below.

After many unforgettable experiences, your journey ends today. Depending on your flight time, you will either be transferred to Whitehorse Airport or continue with your individual onward travel program.
