alaska Tours Pan American between Anchorage & Ushuaia

Itinerary:

The mother of all adventure tours and road trips. Travel the length of the Americas, starting in Alaska and finishing a mighty 210 days later in the world's most southerly city, Ushuaia. From the wilderness of Alaska, the magnificent Rockies and Yellowstone National Park, on to the bright neon lights of Las Vegas and the tropics of Central America, before moving into the southern hemisphere where ancient cultures and the glaciers of Patagonia await. This is an adventure of contrasting extremes.

Travelling mainly by the Dragoman overland truck, you'll get off the beaten track and into local communities, whilst travelling at a steady pace ensuring that the journey is as active as you want, yet with time to enjoy the journey.

Kick your journey off amongst some of Alaska's stunning national park scenery - the glaciers of Kenai Fjords, the mountains of Denali and the wilderness of Wrangell-St Elias. Make the first of many border crossings - into the Yukon of Canada, travelling from Dawson City to the mountain vistas around Jasper & Banff with plenty of time for hiking & bear watching. Head through the Glacier National Park and onto Yellowstone to witness the Old Faithful geyser and much more. A wealth of outdoor activity awaits in Arches, Canyonlands & Zion National Park. Overnight with the Navajo in Monument Valley, try your luck in Las Vegas and gasp at the mighty Grand Canyon.

Move into Central America and head to the Mexican surf of the Pacific coast and indulge in the local liquor, Tequila. Hike up the Paricutin Volcano from Angahuan, before heading back into the hustle and bustle of Mexico City. Wander the Zapotec ruins of Oaxaca, one of many ancient civilisations to be explored on this epic trip, with the second not far behind, the best sites from the Mayan’s - Chichen Itza, Palenque & the cliff top ruins of Tulum. After a few nights enjoying some Caribbean sun on the island of Caye Caulker, head deep into the jungle for the Tikal ruins. Explore the rest of Central America travelling through El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama taking in the amazing volcanic scenery, wildlife, jungles & beaches.

With so much seen and experienced already yet with so much more to come, cross the equator and head into the southern hemisphere, still with a fantastic 100 days left. South America has some fantastic active experiences such as trekking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and riding with the gauchos of Argentina. From the colonial cities and plantation scenery of Colombia, the Amazon jungle and volcano trekking of Colombia and the tranquil views of Lake Titicaca in Peru, each country revealing it's gems, and none more so than the immense Perito Moreno Glacier and trekking in stunning Torres del Paine, before finishing the tour in Ushuaia, at the 'end of the world'.
