Tips for Alaska Travel and Alaska Vacations

1. Don’t miss out on the smoked (or candied) salmon
2. If authenticity is key when hunting out souvenirs, be sure to check for a "Made in Alaska" tag
3. Don’t feed Alaskan wildlife!
4. Try the saltwater taffy
5. If traveling by Alaska rail from Anchorage, make the short walk to the Alaska Railroad Station early. Seating inside the station can be limited.
6. If cruising Alaska’s fjords or ocean, bring something for sea sickness as a preventative measure. You don’t want a little tummy upset to get in the way of spotting the wildlife!
7. Bring insect repellant to avoid being bothered by all things buzzing.
8. Check your supply of US $ before arriving. If you have a busy schedule with early morning departures, you could find yourself short on cash.
9. Dress in layers and be prepared for unpredictable weather.
10. Picture ID is required to buy alcohol anywhere in Alaska.
