    7 days are not enough. Cruises are the best way to see a lot of territory and are as stress free as it gets. I have done cruise with just me and my wife and again with multiple couples. Several fishing trips on the Kenai, float and drop camps for moose and caribou. I can assure you your first trip will not be your last.

      If you come for 7 days you will end up back again. I wouldn't even worry about trying to do everything unless you're positive you'll never be back here.

        We did it in 7 days but we didn't have any slack time. Was ok for us but we didn't want sit around time. If I knew other places to go I'd add at least 2-3 more days.

          You have to experience the tunnel to Whittier.

            We did a cruise last year and it was really great to see several places. Went through glacier bay which was awesome and did a whale watching excursion at one stop which worked out well. However, i would really like to go back and not be tied to the cruise, see some of the less visited places, and have time to explore. I only had a little over a week to allocate. Felt like the cruise was a awesome "intro", but want to go back and do it better

            Have since heard about using the ferry system to hop around and it sounded very interesting.

              All I can say is Talon Air Services float plane fishing trip! It ain’t cheap but it’s worth every single penny. Search my name or search Alaska and you will see some pictures and a better description of our trip a couple years ago. We went for 2 weeks, flew in and out of Anchorage. Covered everything from Fairbanks, Denali, Seward, and Kenai.

                I did the search and couldn’t find anything. Could be operator error though.

                This is one of the fish8ng outings we booked in a couple weeks.

                  We did 2 cruises and then on our 3rd trip we decided to just fly in, rent a car and do our own thing.

                  We flew into Juneau, rented a VRBO, rented car through Turo. Helicopter glacier tour, Fishing charter for halibut, whale watching and TON of sight seeing.

                  It was way better than the cruises only catch is that you see Juneau.

                  We went in late August.
