TRANSPORTATION

Transportation to Seward Alaska

Train
The train comes to Seward everyday during the summer which is approximately Memorial Day to Labor Day. The trip is about four hours. (worth every minute of it) It is scheduled to get to Seward at 11:05 a.m., (in time for most of the tours) and leave 6:00 p.m. with the same idea in mind. It is a very enjoyable ride that allows everyone to relax and watch the dynamic scenery. When wildlife is spotted, the train will slow down or come to a stop to allow everyone an opportunity to get pictures, etc. You can book this directly through Alaska Railroad, the price is $62.00 for adults, one way. Their web page is: http://alaskarailroad.com/.

Ferry
The ferry comes into Seward weekly. From Seward you can go to Kodiak, Homer, Dutch Harbor, or the Aleutian Islands. It varies and changes how often it goes to each location. Ferry trips to places like Dutch Harbor and the Aleutian Islands are for people who have a lot of time. Much of these two trips are spent on the open seas. It does not go direct from Seward to Homer, but goes first to Kodiak. For more information on the ferry, go to: http://www.alaska.gov/ferry/
