About this tour
Travel from Seward to Anchorage through a landscape of glacier-carved valleys, coastal viewpoints, and Alaska wildlife on this guided 7-hour journey. With a local Alaskan guide at the wheel, the transfer becomes a chance to explore along the way rather than simply cover the distance.

In Portage Valley, stretch your legs on a short walk toward Byron Glacier and stop at Portage Glacier Lodge. At Beluga Point, take in the views and keep watch for Dall sheep and other wildlife. The tour ends with drop-off at an Anchorage hotel, the airport, or another chosen location.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.91 from 210 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 Seward
- 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 8.3. Top 11% in Seward means it ranks in the top 11% of tours in Seward by this score.
