Overview
Make your own way to your meeting point in Downtown Anchorage and your professional driver/guide welcomes you - ready to introduce you to Alaskas largest city!
Starting with a tour of the downtown area, learn about the citys history, the importance of Ship Creek and learn about the Dena’ina Athabascan people. Your guide will narrate many facts and point out attractions as you discover this fascinating city.
Next its a visit to a locally known workshop - the Alaska Art Alliance. This was founded in recent years - 2018, to create a welcome environment for Alaskan Native men. Expect to discover their traditional handiwork through their carving practices, from local products such as whale bone.
Admire their ancient techniques and skills, creating their works of art, linking them to the roots of the past - a wonderful experience.
From here you leave downtown for a short journey to the Alaska Native Heritage Center. There is a lot to take in as you enjoy the exhibits, The Welcome House and exploration of the indigenous peoples.
Discover cultural experiences such as dances and storytelling and more, there are many activities inside the Center but it also extends beyond.
Take a relaxing walking trail around Lake Tiulana, with its traditional dwellings, and take some memorable photos - you have around 90 minutes at the Center and whatever you choose to see, remember to dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.
Meet the Centers cultural ambassadors, with their own unique connections and heritage as you learn about Alutiiq, Aleut, and Southeast Alaska Native peoples.
