Whittier Transportation

GETTING THERE IS HALF THE FUN!

Drive Yourself

Whittier is an easy 60 mile drive southeast from Anchorage, with lots to see on the way. Be sure to check out the local attractions on your drive, from numerous photo stops along the famed Turnagain Arm, to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, Portage Glacier, and the longest tunnel in North America or join up with one of our popular transportation packages! Allow 1.5 hours to drive from Anchorage to the Whittier Tunnel. North Americas longest shared tunnel is open every hour on the half hour & we recommend taking the 10:30 tunnel from Bear Valley to Whittier.
