Getting to Whittier

what are the choices for getting from Anchorage to Whittier?

 

 

There are 3-4 main options - train, shuttle, rental car and I assume taxi or Uber / Lyft. Shuttles are usually the cheapest option. You can usually book through the cruise line or independently.

 

Several independent companies offer a tour that will include the Alaska Wildlife Center and other sites on the way to Whittier. There are several discussions with good information on this board. Just use the search feature and enter Anchorage to Whittier Transportation. You may also read some of the Trip reports posted, as many will include the transportation information in their report.

My preferred method would be rental car through Avis. They are the only rental agency in Whittier.

My next preferred method would be the Alaska Railroad, arriving in Whittier in time to do a Prince William Sound glacier cruise before boarding your ship.

If you want to go shuttle bus, I'd recommend these guys: https://www.bearvalleyroadrunner.com/

Another option is a private transfer like this: http://baclimoandbus.com/ or http://auroralimousines.com/
