Q&A

Q: Are there any age restrictions for the Alaska Wildlife Center and Alyeska Tram experience?

A: There are no strict age restrictions for the tour! It's suitable for all ages, but keep in mind that younger kids might need some assistance with the tram ride. It’s a great family-friendly experience, and the guides are super accommodating. Just make sure to dress warmly, especially for the tram ride since it can get chilly at that elevation.

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the tour?

A: If the weather doesn’t cooperate, they usually try to reschedule your trip without charge. It's Alaska, so just be cautious. The tram might close if the conditions are extreme, but the wildlife center is typically open. Just make sure to check closer to the date!

Q: What should I wear for the Alyeska Tram ride? Is it cold up there?

A: Definitely dress in layers! It can get pretty chilly at 2,300 feet, even in summer. I'd recommend a warm jacket, gloves, and a hat. If you're going in winter, boots are a must. The wildlife center is also outdoors, so be prepared for all types of weather. It's a good idea to check the forecast before you go!
