About this tour

Set out on Alaska’s Sterling Highway with a self-guided audio tour that turns the drive from Anchorage to Homer into a flexible journey across the Kenai Peninsula. GuideAlong’s location-based commentary plays automatically as you travel, sharing stories, tips, and directions along the way.

Follow turquoise rivers and lakes, pause for Cook Inlet views at Beluga Point, and explore Homer Spit on Kachemak Bay. You can also add stops at Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center or Russian River Falls. Suggested itineraries help you plan a half-day, full-day, or multi-day trip, while the app lets you linger where you like and skip stops that don’t suit your plans. Download the tour ahead of time to listen offline, and connect your phone to your car stereo, Apple CarPlay, or Android Auto for playback. One purchase covers everyone in the vehicle, and the tour has no expiry.

Take the Anchorage to Homer drive at your own pace and let the stories guide the way. Download the app and tour before you leave, then make the Kenai Peninsula your own.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 3 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Anchorage
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.3.
