Step off your ship into a waiting railcar for our exclusive Direct-to-the-Wilderness rail service to the Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge. Get settled, and perhaps do an optional excursion. Or you may enjoy the spectacular main lodge, river view deck, and Princess Village with the popular Christmas cottage and sugar shack. Be sure to check out Fannie Q's Saloon, named after a famed local homesteader, or sit outside at a fireside patio.

Start your morning with a quick stop at Fannie Q's saloon for a hearty buffet breakfast. Explore Denali National Park on a Natural History Tour, watching for glimpses of North America?s tallest peak as well as Denali's "Big Five?, moose, caribou, bears, wolves and Dall sheep. Later today, you may want to simply relax with a glass of wine on the deck overlooking the Nenana River.

This morning, depart via motorcoach to the Mt. McKinley Princess Wilderness Lodge. The main attraction is the 20,310-foot mountain visible from nearly anywhere on the lodge's property. Sit and gaze at the majesty of "The Great One" from the lodge's treehouse designed and built by Pete Nelson of Animal Planet's Treehouse Masters.

You'll have the morning to take advantage of optional excursions from the lodge. Then, continue your motorcoach journey to Anchorage for an overnight stay at the Hotel Captain Cook.

Your cruisetour ends this morning in Anchorage.
