A mountain pond reflects beautiful scenery in its still waters

Southcentral has the amenities travelers seek, while serving as a gateway to the wilderness experience.

MICHAEL SOBEL
We visited Alaska on a Globus Bus tour in mid July. It was a wonderful experience. We did and saw a lot of Alaska. I never thought I would get excited over the pipeline, but after seeing and learning about it I was amazed at the engineering and construction. We took a couple of boat trips that were fantastic. We got to see lots of wildlife and glaciers calving. In additon we took a helicopter trip to land on a glacier which was wonderful. Denali was one of the highlights of our trip. I am sorry we didn't take an optional trip to the Arctic Circle. I also would have opted for the additional cruise that was available at the end of our bus tour. We will definitely visit Alaska again and plan to spend more time than we did on our first visit.
