UnCruise Adventures is inviting travelers to explore Alaska like never before with its refreshed Denali Adventure by Rail & Trail with Fairbanks. The guided, eight-day land extension is designed to pair seamlessly with the brand’s small-ship sailings.
Where most Alaska cruises end, UnCruise is opening up more of Alaska for our guests, creating a deeper connection to the interior’s wild landscapes, local culture, breathtaking hikes, and more. From walking with reindeer and panning for gold in Fairbanks to kayaking beneath Denali’s towering peaks, guests embark on an authentic exploration led by expert local guides. Every day promises discovery, connection, and comfort. Crafted by Alaskans, this itinerary takes visitors to:
- Fairbanks – Meet locals, walk with reindeer, and learn about Alaska’s gold rush heritage.
- Denali National Park – Journey deep into the wilderness on a narrated tour, searching for bears, moose, and caribou, then hike trails few visitors ever see.
- Talkeetna – Ride the deluxe dome railcar through breathtaking landscapes, enjoy panoramic views of Denali from Curry Ridge, and kayak the mirror-still waters of Byers Lake.
UnCruise Adventures stands apart as one of the few U.S.-based adventure travel companies offering both small-group land experiences and intimate, expedition-style cruising designed to complement one another. Each program is carefully curated to reflect the brand’s deep Alaskan roots, prioritizing authenticity, access, and connection with local communities.
- Small Groups, Big Experiences: Limited capacity means more access and less waiting.
- Local Connections: Alaskan-owned and operated, with deep ties to communities along the route.
Operating from May through September, the Denali Adventure by Rail & Trail with Fairbanks is designed to complement guests’ UnCruise adventure—ideally as a pre-cruise journey. Post-cruise options may also be arranged with the help of knowledgeable Adventure Specialists.
