Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for kids on this tour? My son is 10 and loves wildlife!

A: There’s actually no strict age limit, but they recommend kids be at least 8 years old for the long ride. Your 10-year-old should have a blast! Just make sure he’s ready for the cold since it can get pretty chilly in Denali during winter.

Q: Do you know if they ever cancel due to weather? My partner is really hoping for clear skies for pictures!

A: Yes, they do cancel if the weather's too extreme, especially if visibility is bad. But they usually notify you ahead of time, and you can always reschedule for a later date. Just keep an eye on the forecast as your date approaches!

Q: What should I wear for this winter drive? Is it really cold?

A: Layers are key! It can get really cold in Denali, so wear thermal underwear, a good winter coat, gloves, and a beanie. Don't forget waterproof boots too, just in case you stop for a walk! You'll be glad you did.

Thinking of gifting the Denali Winter Drive, any tips?

I really want to surprise my sister with this Denali Winter Drive. I’ve heard it’s about 10 hours long and they get to see tons of wildlife! I'm just worried about the cold and if she’ll enjoy the drive. Anyone done this before? What’s it like?

Anyone else seen the northern lights during the winter drive?

I went on the Denali Winter Drive last month and we got lucky with a clear night! The northern lights were insane! Just wanted to know if anyone else has had the same experience. How often does that happen?
