xavier2005 Posted February 23, 2006 #1 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I would appreciate any advice you can offer! We have 2 kids ages 11 and 5. Our cruise (Radiance) ends in Seward on June 3. Our flight leaves at 2:00 am from Anchorage on June 8th, which leaves us about 4 1/2 days. Some of the options we are considering: 1) We were thinking of taking the train to Anchorage leaving at 6:30pm, but don't know whether to spend the night in Seward or take the train on the day we arrive. (by the way, what do we do with our luggage while touring around Seward prior to taking the train?) 2) Once we arrive in Anchorage, we will likely need a hotel for the night and begin the next day. That leaves either 2 or 3 nights for Denali depending on whether we stay in Seward. We originally wanted to rent an RV/Motor Home for 3 or 4 days but are not sure if it is a good idea due to our 2am flight coupled with required return hours for the RV agencies. If we rented a car, we could return at airport just prior to flight. I've tried to estimate the expenses of RV vs. Rental Car and Hotels, including gas mileage and it seems to be very close. So, the decision is based mostly on what would be the better experience given the constraints of our schedule. 3) If we spend a night in Seward (leaving only 2 nights for Denali), do you recommend spending one night in Talkeetna or driving further into Denali to spend both nights?
