Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

An off-road adventure of a lifetime - you'll experience the rugged Alaska wilderness from the driver's seat of a specially designed off-road Tomcar adventure kart. At base camp, you'll receive a safety briefing and gear up for a thrilling, one-and-a-half-hour guided trek. After testing your driving skills, your caravan of Tomcar adventure karts will set out to explore the remote backcountry along several miles of improved forest trail. A comfortable pace is maintained as you thread your way around steep curves, climbing to reveal breathtaking views of the Tongass National Forest, Behm Canal and Alaska's fabled Inside Passage. Stops along the route allow you to soak up the grandeur of this lush land, and snap photos of vistas, waterfalls, and perhaps eagles, deer or bears. Drivers and passengers will have the opportunity to switch positions and try their hand at driving the kart back to camp.
