bola Posted January 19, 2013 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Finalizing my plans for our Princess Alaska Cruise. Need help in finding a transfer from our hotel in Anchorage to Whittier cruise port. Would like an option that would be scenic with many photo ops! Also, reasonably price would be helpful. We are a party of 8. Any suggestions??? I've checked into Alaska Cruise Transfer & Tours they offer a wildlife Transfer that looks interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lar Posted January 22, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Personally I have only ever driven a car to Whittier so I don't have personal experience with the transfer companies. But here are a few others I have heard about: Anchorage Tours & Transfers http://www.akcruiseshuttle.com/whittier-to-anchorage run by a local young couple - hear good things about them. Alaska Transportation Group http://www.alaskatransportation.net/ Limousine of Alaska http://www.limousineofalaska.com/index.htm they do buses as well to help share costs.

bola Posted January 24, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Thanks for the helpful information. I've been doing some research & I'm leaning towards Alaska Cruise Transfer & Tours. They offer a 3 hour Wildlife Tour. I'm just wondering if they are reputable company. http://alaskacruisetransfer.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleleaves Posted January 24, 2013 #4 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I too have only driven a vehicle so no personal recommendation to offer. Magic Bus has been mentioned positively in trip reviews so might be worth looking into. Be sure to check any company with the Better Business Bureau. There are a couple of transfer companies with very bad reps and an F rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbmom87 Posted January 26, 2013 #5 Share Posted January 26, 2013 The other thing is there seems to be a pattern that when a Limo company in Anchorage gets a bad rating on BBB, they rename their business. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachelfran Posted January 26, 2013 #6 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Those that have driven a car - is that a rental via Avis? How did you book? Direct? I usually book with Hotwire but they are not allowing a pick up in anchorage and drop in Whittier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
