It was recommended to us that we do the reverse route where you fly
into Fairbanks, work your way south on the bus and train tour, and
then board the cruise ship in Whittier for the ride south to
Vancouver. It worked out very well and the weather was great even
though there was still snow on the ground in Fairbanks.

We flew into Fairbanks, rented a van and drove around for 3 weeks,
flying out of Anchorage.

After driving to Alaska. I would fly in and rent a 4x4 camper. As there
were places where lodging was very scarce. That way you have sleeping
accommodations when no hotel or motel is available. Do not have to sleep
in the camper if near a nice hotel.
