We are proud to be homegrown!
We are an Alaska based tour company owned and operated by a team of intriguing Alaskans who love their hobby of offering dynamic tour packages. On staff are: a bush pilot, a mountain climber, commercial & sports fishermen, travel writers, educators and many who have completed Alaska's Running of the Reindeer. Our combined experience with living and playing in the Great Land enables Premier to continually be recommended by our worldwide partners. We believe the best tour products are created and delivered with passion and are proud to be Alaskans in the visitor industry.
Alaska is a land of mystery and spectacular during any season. The summer season runs from mid-May to mid-September, corresponding with the arrival of our first snowfall. With visions of "termination dust" (our first dusting of snow in the mountains) arriving in late August, we are entering the slow down of our summer. With such a seasonal destination, we start our planning efforts 18-24 months prior to ensure we maximize our marketing & sales efforts.
A great Alaska land tour combines the usual with the unusual. For instance most visitors want to experience Anchorage and Denali National Park although we have other fantastic destinations (Fairbanks, Valdez, Girdwood, the Kenai Peninsula, etc.). As a cosmopolitan city, Anchorage is terrific on a year round basis. Denali however, has limited services in the off-season (October - April) and best for the first time visitor during the traditional summer months. By mid-August, the tapestry of colors on the tundra turn a brilliant rust and the tree leaves are a mix of gold and orange. Combine this with the first arrival of darkness to the north and the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) wake up calls delight every age! By the end of September, the Denali Park road is impacted by snow fall and Denali becomes a sleepy little community awaiting spring. Fall ends and winter begins.
By springtime (April) we come to appreciate every minute of expanding daylight and begin to warm after the big winter chill. The month of May brings moose calves and a fresh beginning to the north. It's a favorite time for Alaskans. So, wake us up this winter and give your northern partners a call if we can help you sell more Alaska!
