We did not go that far into the park, although I do not think we were that far from it. I think we were somewhere around the 62 mile mark. I believe it was Stony Hill Overlook. I am not sure if that is the turn around for the tour buses or if it all depends on how much you stop for wildlife. We were extremely happy with how far we went and what we saw. It was amazing for us!

Thanks.... I can't wait to go. It sounds amazing!!!

Day ~ 4

Today our excursion is the Tundra Wilderness Tour.

 

This morning we got up and had a quick continental breakfast and then on the bus to go to Denali Park for the Tundra Wilderness Tour.

 

.......The park is very pristine and they keep it that way by limiting how far you can drive into the park. Self drivers do not get very far, but you can take one of the many shuttle buses into Denali. This way they can control people from interacting (stupidly) with nature and can keep the park clean from humans.

........... We had a long and very rewarding day with all the scenery and wildlife we saw.

I was reviewing your entry on The Tundra Wilderness tour. It sounds amazing!! Did the tour go as far as Eielson and Wonder Lake in the park?

we are also going to use quick shuttle,

as we are flying r/t from Seattle to DFW

it would have been almost twice as much if we had done dfw-seatac

vancouver-dfw==== besides we would have stopped in Seatac anyways for a layover:)

shuttle is costing us 105 for 2 people

Thanks for this info. I am going to look into the shuttle. It sounds like a great option.

Your review was fantastic. We are doing this same tour and cruise in July 2013. I am also a planner. It really helped to read about what we should hold off on and as you say go with the flow. I also did not think of taking a shuttle to Seattle to fly home to the East coast. I will look into that now. Did you book the shuttle on your own or through the cruise line?

Your descriptions and photos are terrific. Thanks again.
