hockeygal54 Posted June 12, 2012 #1 Share Posted June 12, 2012 We r going to be in Talkeetna Sunday afternoon/Monday morning mid aug before heading to Whittier to board Coral Princess. We have booked excursions in all our ports as well as Denali. Quite frankly I think Talkeetna should be a "take the bus to town and eat/drink beer" kind of deal. Any suggestions on things to do there? Flying not a choice cause we've already booked a flight tour and they're expensive and don't really feel like getting in a raft for half a day. We r two middle aged chicks that like to roam around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaciers Posted June 12, 2012 #2 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Our favorites in Talkeetna. This brewery opened up a couple years ago. It’s on the main street.

donaldsc Posted June 12, 2012 #3 Share Posted June 12, 2012 If you are not planning to fly and not planning to raft, there is less than nothing to do in Talkeetna. DON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zqvol Posted June 12, 2012 #5 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Where are you staying? If you are at the Princess Resort you are about 45 minutes from town. We did a gold panning excursion when there. Nothing special but sorta fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The day we're there is also last day of Olympics. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
