We did a trip over land. Flew into Anchorage and drove down to Homer/Seward, then headed up to Wasilla and Denali. I loved the land trip b/c the landscape is just amazing!! we booked overnights in Anchorage and Wasilla, then just found places to stay in Homer. We did a flight over Denali park as it was closed to cars for the season. The wildlife we saw on the drive was incredible--beluga whales, bears, moose--all right by roadside. Now since it was off-season (Sept) the roads weren't crowded at all. We took a lot of side trips to little towns. Best vacation ever. You will love it! Agree with Deb on the weather--prepare for rain, snow and heat 😉
