Anchorage Seward Bus Tour with Wildlife Park detailed description:
Overview
We pick you up at Anchorage hotels or Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport and begin our journey along the Seward Highway—an official National Scenic Byway known for glaciers, mountains, and wildlife. This fully narrated experience blends a comfortable transfer to Seward with classic Alaska sightseeing, a wildlife visit, and a scenic photo stop, ending with a convenient drop-off at the Seward cruise ship terminal.
Anchorage to Turnagain Arm (Photo Stop)
South of Anchorage we skim the edge of Potter Marsh, part of the Anchorage Coastal Wildlife Refuge. The highway then hugs the tidal waters of Turnagain Arm, where steep mountains plunge to the sea. We pause at a designated turnout—often Beluga Point—for photos and, conditions permitting, a chance to spot Dall sheep on the cliffs or beluga whales in the inlet.
Portage & Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center (AWCC)
Continuing south, we pass the remains of Portage, a community shaped by the 1964 earthquake, and arrive at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. You will have 1 hour to explore the Center. This sanctuary cares for Alaska’s iconic animals; you can view bison, elk, moose, caribou, musk oxen, eagles, and bears in spacious habitats while learning about conservation efforts. It’s a favorite stop for close-up photographs in a safe, respectful setting.
Kenai Mountains & Moose Pass
Back on the highway we climb into the Kenai Mountains, with vistas above and below the tree line—jagged peaks, hanging glaciers, and alpine valleys. We roll through Moose Pass, a small mountain town framed by lakes and waterfalls, then descend toward the coast and the town of Seward.
Arrival in Seward
We finish with a brief look at Seward’s busy small-boat harbor and then drop you directly at the cruise ship terminal for an easy embarkation. Settle in and enjoy the mountain-and-sea scenery that surrounds this charming port.

About Seward Alaska
Seward is the easiest place to find fish and see glaciers. The year-round population is about 2,000, but it can swell to about 30,000 around the popular Fourth of July weekend festivities. The town was named after William Seward, secretary of state under President Andrew Johnson, who engineered the purchase of Alaska from Russia in 1867. His critics around the country were appalled. The United States had spent $7.2 million, they cried, for icebergs, and polar bears. Cartoonists showed Seward amid glaciers and walruses. They claimed the new territory should more aptly be called “Walrussia” or “Seward’s Folly.” Asked at the end of his long and distinguished career about his single greatest achievement, Seward responded, “The purchase of Alaska! But it will take Congress and the American people a generation to find it out.” That original purchase price has been paid back thousands of times over in fur, gold, fish, timber, and oil. Ironically, now tourists come (and pay) to see icebergs, walruses, polar bears, and glaciers.
While you’ll see plenty of ice in Seward, you won’t see walruses or polar bears this far south, unless you come for a strange event the third week of January, known as the Seward Polar Bear Jump-off Festival. When everyone else is wearing parkas and wool hats, strange characters in costumes and capes – all for charity and the theater of the absurd – plunge into the frigid waters of Resurrection Bay and come flying back out. It’s their entry fee to an elite and wacky club, the Polar Bear Club. Resurrection Bay is the best of Seward, an inviting front yard, attracting boaters, birders, kayakers, fisherman, sailors, and whale watchers. Full of glaciers and incredible wildlife, all the western coast of the bay is in Kenai Fjords National Park. Seward is the beginning of the railroad to Fairbanks and Mile 0 on the old historic Seward to Nome gold rush/mail route, today more familiarly known as the Iditarod Trail.

Anchorage to Seward
The driver was very personable and the bus was comfortable. Best price for cruises.The scenery was so pretty and the commentary was interesting and contained many interesting facts.. It is a shame how the cruise industry treats arriving and departing passengers as captive and charge excessive fees for the transportation.

Great Transportation with a stop you cant get on the train!
This was our second time cruising Alaska. However, this time we were taking our teenage children. We debated on taking the train from Anchorage to Seward but decided on the bus instead. It was the only way to get in the stop at the Wildlife Center. It was a great way to get some ‘guaranteed’ animal viewing in. It ended up on the bus ride we saw even more wildlife along the way and our guide was very informative and friendly. Totally recommend this being part of your journey!

Great way to transfer to a cruise ship
I chose the wildlife tour option as an informative/fun way of getting to the ship. The company couldn’t pick up from the hotel I was staying in, but we arranged to be picked up from one nearby. They were early!
Shari was very personable and helpful throughout, giving a running commentary, peppered with plenty of self deprecating humour
We stopped for a photo stop and got some breathtakingly beautiful pictures.
We had enough time at the wildlife sanctuary to see everything and it was certainly worth taking this tour.
We got to the terminal and just walked straight on the ship, with no line. Perfect
For the small amount extra I felt it was well worth it
Highly recommended

Achorage to Seward plus Wildlife!
We chose the Anchorage to Seward Narrated Wildlife Tour four our large family trip. The pickup at the hotel was worth the price alone. Throwing in a very professional and courteous driver and narrator set the bar for quality customer service in a tranfer company. The cherry on top was the wildlife preserve along the trip for lunch and up close Alaska wildlife.

Great Value! Lots to See!
We decided to book with Alaskan Cruise Transportation to connect us with our Cruise which was to depart from Seward a few hours drive from Anchorage. This was a great way to experience Anchorage prior to joining our Alaskan Cruise from Seward.
Our Guide, Chris was friendly and cheery and offered interesting info from a lifetime of living in Anchorage. We had a great day on this tour including visiting the Animal Rehabilitation Centre, and enjoying a lovely Scenic Coastal drive to Seward.
As our mid-town Hotel was out of the Tour’s pick up zone, the Company was very happy to pick us up from the International Airport allowing us to par take in our Hotels Free Shuttle service to the Airport. A very suitable compromise saving us extra dollars. This only added to the good value for money and enjoyable tour choice we made with Alaskan Cruise Transportation. Thank you.

We booked out transfer from Anchorage to Seward as a bus ride to our cruise ship. Everything was ‘by the book”, as explained on their web site..Ride was cosy and bus was comfortable. Lot to learn from the driver…came on time on the dock.

Anchorage to Seward transfer
We took the transfer from Anchorage to the cruise ship terminal in Seward as it was cheaper than any other option and gave us additional adventure. The wildlife center was worth the stop, and the driver and director were very friendly and helpful. The transfer picked us up at our hotel and avoided any additional travel to access and included the cost of the wildlife center fee.

Nice transport to ship
This was a nice transport to Seward from Anchorage. Bus arrived on time. We did need to make several stops to pickup other guests. Bus driver gave a very informative narration along our route. Had a photo stop en route as well as a stop at the Wildlife Conservatory Center. It would have been nice to have an extra 30 minutes as we did not get to see all the animals or have time for the gift shop. There is a small snack bar. We just had enough time to grab some food to go. Luckily there were not a lot us buses at that time. Otherwise we would not have had time to grab a snack. Would recommend.

Great way to transfer from Anchorage to Seward
Great way to transfer from Anchorage to Seward to meet our ship. ACT came up with a creative way to avoid sitting in a traffic jam due to an accident on the Seward Highway… they dropped us off at the mall for an hour. We got a bite to eat and roamed the stores. By the time we returned to the bus, the driver and guide had heard that the road was clearing. Much better than sitting in traffic for an hour or more. We did get to spend about 55 minutes at the Wildlife Center too. Great stop! Very good driver and guide. I would recommend their transport services.

Transportation from Anchorage to Seward.
Great value for the money. There were 10 of us requiring transportation from Anchorage to Seward to get on the ship. They picked us all up at our hotel. We stopped at Beluga point to look for whales and we also stopped at the wildlife center for an hour or so. Stress free travel. Highly recommend this company.

So much fun – the time flew by
We hired ACT to take us from the airport to the cruise harbor in Seward. The trip was four plus hours, but included a live narration, a couple of stops for pictures, and an hour at the Alaskan Nature Preserve. Our guide, Molly, and driver, Edson, made the trip a pleasure, pointing out spots of interest and regaling us with stories, facts, and (very bad) jokes. (a three legged moose is a mooselini). The nature preserve was a wonderful way to see Alaskan wildlife up close; bears, moose, caribou, Sitka deer, muskox, wood bison, wolves, porcupine, fox, elk, eagle, own, lynx. These animals have been rescued are are kept in open habitats where they thrive. We loved the whole trip.

As Advertised – Pleasantly Surprised!
Based on the reviews and their website, we chose the extended version of the transfer (2.5-3 hours) to include a stop at the Wildlife Conservatory. The process and instructions for pickup were clear and accurate and the drive/tour with narration was just the right amount. It was great to hear about Alaska and to have specific things pointed out to us. A few photo stops along the way, an hour at the Conservatory (which actually could have been a bit longer to see and appreciate it all – but dining/refreshments were quite limited there). We arrived at the port as promised and had the easiest on-boarding process ever! Practically door-to-door service. It was pleasantly surprising that EVERYTHING was as advertised, and even better than expected. Highly recommend this service.

Great transportation option to Seward
We reserved the ACT Big Bus with the Wildlife tour to go from Anchorage to Seward to connect with a cruise. The bus was comfortable and clean. The driver and guide were articulate and knowledgeable in the commentary during the drive. Our luggage was handled well and taken directly to the luggage handlers at the port. The stop at the Wildlife Park was interesting, with many rescued animals available for viewing. The stop could have been a bit longer, but I understand the time constraints for meeting the ship. I recommend this relaxing and informative trip to the port.
