Add to My Trip

Among the great many things that make Denali National Park such a unique destination is just how little of it is accessible by road. A single gravel road goes into the six-million-acre park and only travelers on trips like the Tundra Wilderness Tour have the chance to experience it. This fully narrated guided tour takes visitors 42 scenic miles along the Park Road to the historic Murie Cabin.

Explore the park with a certified naturalist guide.

Guests on the Tundra Wilderness Tour enjoy a half day with a certified naturalist guide/driver on a modified school bus outfitted with coach seats. With all eyes peeled, chances are good for spotting several of the park's wildlife residents along the road: A shaggy grizzly sow watching over rambunctious spring cubs, a lone bull moose browsing in thick willows, a rare full-curl Dall sheep bedded down high upon a craggy ridge.

Along the way the tour stops for ample photo opportunities as well as scheduled rest breaks. Picturesque highlights include the craggy cliffside of Cathedral Mountain, wildlife rich Sable Pass, and braided wash of the East Fork River. Your turnaround point is the East Fork Cabin. Also known as the Murie Cabin, you'll have time to explore this rustic shelter and learn about its unique history before making the scenic return trip.

The Tundra Wilderness Tour is fully-narrated by a naturalist guide/driver. The ticket price includes the park entrance fee (adults only). Seats are first-come, first-serve. The tour runs about 5 to 5.5 hours.

What to Bring

A light snack and bottled water is provided, but passengers should bring additional food as there are no concessions available in the park. Bring all gear necessary to comfortably enjoy the Alaskan outdoors, including a rain jacket and pants, warm layers, and insect repellant. Don't forget a camera and binoculars.

Special Instructions

Alaska State Law requires children under age 8 and below 65 pounds to be in a car seat on the bus. A paid ticket is required for all children and infants. Wheelchair accessible buses are available upon request when the reservation is made.

Generally, morning tours depart between 4:30 AM and 11:50 AM, while afternoon tours typically depart between 12:10 PM and 4:50 PM.

Musings of a Rover

Should You Book the Denali Tundra Wilderness Tour? [Review]

This popular bus tour into Denali National Park is considered one of the main ways to see the park. But is it worth it?

denali tundra wilderness tour review

The main way to access Denali National Park is via the Denali Park Road. And since private vehicles can only drive the first 15 miles, buses are your main way into the park. The main ones being the tour buses and transit buses . During our trip to the Denali area in June 2022, we opted for the Denali Tundra Wilderness Tour.

The tour came highly recommended via almost anything I found online. And I had high expectations. But did the tour live up to them. Ehh…kind of. I saw what I wanted to see, but the rest…eh.

Below I’ll break down what I liked and, more importantly, what I’d change if we were to re-do or go back.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR 2022 & 2023. Due to a landslide along the Park Road, the Denali Tundra Wilderness Tour turns around at MM 43. In fact all buses (tour or transit) turn around at MM 43. This is roughly just halfway along the road and significantly shortens the tour. There is a chance the road will not be fixed for the 2023 season. ALWAYS check the current conditions via the National Park Service.

What Is the Tundra Wilderness Tour?

Under normal conditions, the Denali Tundra Wilderness Tour is one of three tour buses operated by the park . It’s, you could say, the middle child. Longer than the short Natural History Tour, but several hours shorter than the 12 hour Kantishna Experience which takes guests all the way out to the end of the road.

The Kantishna Experience is not currently offered due to the road being out.

The Tundra Wilderness tour offers great scenery and, hopefully, chances to see wildlife and Denali . (Note that the mountain is only visible about 30% of the time, so there’s a good chance the weather won’t cooperate during your time in the park.)

denali tundra wilderness tour review

This is also a narrated tour, so your tour guide will talk to you about the history of the park and the road. They’ll also point out (and stop) for wildlife and provide information on anything you may see along the way.

Plus you’ll be provided with a little snack pack and some water (though I would recommend bringing your own reusable water bottle as well).

The tour does make a few pitstops along the way. Usually for restrooms but also for a couple scenic views as well.

In 2022, the tour lasts for about 5ish hours and costs $128 per person. It runs everyday from about mid-May to mid-September. You can book via the Reserve Denali .

You can find all the important information (like about pick up times and locations) on Reserve Denali too. Read it thoroughly.

What I Liked About the Tundra Wilderness Tour

There were two main things I wanted from Denali’s Tundra Wilderness Tour. I wanted to see Alaska’s big Five (moose, bear, dall sheep, wolf, and caribou). And I wanted to see Denali.

And I did. We saw lots of wildlife and we actually saw the mountain.

Now I wish we could have seen Denali from the Eielson Visitor Center or Wonder Lake. But that wasn’t possible (due to the road closure). So I will take what I can get. And we saw Denali.

mt denali in denali national park

In terms of wildlife, first we saw two moose. Both were smaller juveniles so they were not nearly as big as they could have been. But they were right next to the road. Literally one of them walked right out onto the road next to the stopped bus and circled back behind it.

We also spotted several caribou cooling off in the snow. They were a bit further away, but there were a couple of them and we saw them running even.

And lastly, a couple of people spotted some dall sheep, but they were high up in the mountains and not as visible. We didn’t spot wolves (which I expected) or bears (but I had already seen them on our cruise ).

So the Tundra Wilderness Tour did deliver on the main things I wanted. But what about the rest?

What Would I Change

I’ll go over the things I didn’t like first before digging into the details on what I’d change.

And well, the booking process for the Tundra Wilderness Tour wasn’t super smooth . When I went to book the tour in March, it seemed it was completely full for the whole summer except on Sundays. I reached out to Reserve Denali to enquire but they brushed me off.

This annoyed me. I work in website development, I know a bug when I see one. But they ignored my comments.

denali tundra wilderness tour review

And what would you know, a couple months later, it was fixed and we were able to book the tour. So yeah, the booking experience wasn’t great. And the customer service was eh too.

Also if you are staying at a large hotel or resort, there may be several tours coming by to pick up people . At our hotel, three separate tours were leaving within 10 minutes of each other and it was confusing to everyone about who belonged on each one (because of course some of the buses were late).

Tensions were high and people were yelling. It was helpful that each bus tour guide had a list of names, but that didn’t stop people from swarming the bus.

me and mt. denali in denali national park

And the buses will be full. Like we were the last ones on the bus so we were in the back of the bus. And these are cramped school buses. They are not comfortable. And if the wildlife happens to be on the wrong side of the bus from you, you will have to lean over your seat mates.

It was also disappointing that we had to turn around when we did. Like I get it. There was a landslide and the road is out. There’s nothing we could have done differently. But I felt like just as we were starting to see more wildlife and get better views of Denali, we had to turn around.

If the longer Kantishna Experience tour had been available, I would have preferred it . 12 hours on a school bus doesn’t sound fun. But being able to go further into the park would have been worth it.

But the main thing I’d change? I’d try to spend 2-3 full days in the Denali area.

This is because I think doing one of the tour buses is a good idea. It will give you a good introduction to the park. Even with the disappointments above, I’d still do a tour (preferably the Kantishna Experience). But either tour will take all day.

And this tour is more like a teaser. By the end of it, I wanted to go back into the Park and go hiking . We only had one full day in Denali National Park, and I realized that was not enough.

denali tundra wilderness tour review

For starters, there are a lot of trails around the Visitor Center and Park Headquarters . And a few even out along the road (this is where the transit buses come in handy).

Getting to the Visitor Center may be tricky if you don’t have a car, but some hotels have shuttles to it.

But basically the main thing I’d change is that I’d like to spend more time away from people. On the bus you are surrounded by lots of people. And I wish we would have spent some more time on our own in the park.

So for now, I’ll just have to start planning my next trip to Alaska and Denali National Park.

Thing to Do

Sightsee on a Denali Tour Bus

Denali National Park & Preserve

Denali is a unique park in many ways.

There is just one road in the park, and traffic on most of it is regulated to prevent congestion, preserve a wilderness experience for sight-seers and reduce stress on wildlife. Travel on the road is mainly limited to a variety of bus trips.

  • Tour buses are narrated.
  • Tundra Wilderness and Kantishna Experience Tours include a box lunch and hot beverage.
  • Restroom breaks occur about every 90 minutes
  • Wildlife viewing stops will occur any time animals can be seen.

Comparison of Tour Bus Choices

Natural history tour.

  • Duration : ~5 hours
  • Destination : Mile 27, Teklanika River

Tundra Wilderness Tour

  • Duration : 7 to 8 hours
  • Destination : Mile 53, Toklat River
  • Description : Variations of this tour have been in existence since 1923, with the first concessioner offering bus trips as far as the road extended at that time. Today, it is a 7-8 hour excursion into the park with a certified driver-naturalist. Going to at least Toklat River (mile 53), this tour provides in-depth information about the history of the park, while maintaining a keen eye in search of wildlife and photography opportunities. It may travel a bit farther than Toklat RIver if conditions allow a good view of Denali from Stony Dome, a few miles farther west from Toklat. 

Kantishna Experience Tour

  • Duration : 12 hours
  • Destination : Mile 92, Kantishna
  • Description : Follow the trail of pioneer Fannie Quigley to the old gold town of Kantishna on this all-day adventure to the end of the Park Road.

You will spend time in Kantishna learning about its interesting history and role in Interior Alaska

When you buy a tour bus ticket, you'll choose how long of a trip to undertake. Choices are 5, 8, or 12 hours round-trip. Durations include stops for wildlife viewing, bathroom breaks, and more. 

On a narrated tour bus, your driver is a trained naturalist who will share stories about the natural and cultural history of Denali. Restroom breaks occur about every 90 minutes. The bus will pause any time wildlife sightings occur. 

There are no minimum ages; but state of Alaska child safety laws mean that kids under age 4 must be in a car seat. Car seats are not provided by the bus company, so please bring your own.

Pets are not allowed on buses.

Ticket prices vary depending on the duration of the trip. Please visit the tour bus company's website to find current prices.

Tour buses start from many different locations. Please check your ticket or inquire with the tour bus company for your starting location. 

If your visit will be short (e.g., 3 days or less), reservations are strongly recommended.  Please visit  the tour bus company's website  to book in advance. 

Visitors who will be in the Denali area for more than a few days may find it more convenient to wait until arriving and purchase tickets in the park, at the Denali Bus Depot.

The summer season in Denali is from May 20 to mid-September. There are short tours occasionally available a few weeks before and after summer; contact the tour bus company for details.

Bus trips operate all day, though most departures are before noon. 

  • Several buses each day are equipped with wheelchair lifts. Please be sure to notify the bus company of this need when making reservations.
  • Rest areas where buses stop offer wheelchair-accessible bathrooms.
  • Most of the park road and rest areas are well-compacted gravel surfaces. Only the first 15 miles of the park road are paved.

Early Morning Expedition into Denali

The day began early as I boarded the shuttle that would take me deep into the heart of Denali National Park. The crisp morning air was invigorating as I eagerly anticipated the wildlife sightings and stunning scenery ahead. The park is known for its diverse ecosystem, including grizzly bears, moose, wolves, and caribou.

A knowledgeable guide narrated the shuttle tour and provided insights into the park’s history, geology, and the significance of its diverse flora and fauna. As we made our way down the winding roads, I kept my eyes peeled, hoping to glimpse Denali, the highest peak in North America.

Fellow Traveler Tip: Plan for an early morning shuttle tour to increase your chances of spotting wildlife, and remember your binoculars and camera!

<p><span>After an eventful morning, the shuttle dropped me off at Polychrome Pass, a mesmerizing rugged terrain. I had planned a midday hike to surround myself with the park’s raw beauty.
