This trip is an escorted adventure into the heart

with wild animals. He has trained and filmed animals for "Never
Cry Wolf" and on 70 shows for the "Wild America" series
on PBS, as well as several feature films of his own. His park
hosts over 40 wild Alaskan ananimals including Wolves, Arctic
Fox, Lynx, Porcupine, Reindeer, and Wolverine with new animals
being added continuously. High levels of interaction are possible
at the Wildlife Park, including hands on face-to-face encounters
and intimate close-up photography. The Park is unique in all
of Alaska and the Yukon and is considered by many to be the
best wildlife viewing experience of their trip to Alaska.
The towering Cathedral Peaks and Chilkat Mountains,
boundary peaks of Glacier Bay National Park, provide the backdrop
as we ride our deluxe motorcoach and venture 27 miles upstream
from saltwater. As we follow the scenic Chikat River into the
Preserve, we will stop along the river's edge to view this
amazing habitat set aside for the American Bald Eagle.
After visiting the Wildlife Park, we head back
to Haines where you will visit the American Bald Eagle Foundation
Interpretive Center which contains amazing world class exhibits
of the local wildlife. Then we are off for a trip around the
Parade Grounds of historic Fort William H. Seward, Alaska's
first fort.
