How does someone get to Juneau, Alaska, by car? |
Travel Info I know I am going to have to take the ferry part of the way but I want to go as far as possible by car with the shortest distance possible by ferry. I am going to be leaving the lower 48 from Seattle, Washington. If it's cheaper to take the ferry from Bellingham, Washington, I'll do that. I want to save money and time but I would like to see a lot of the scenery too.

Then in Southern Alaska you could take a ferry from Valdez to Juneau. The Alkan is gorgeous especially this time of year & you see ALOT of wildlife. & I mean ALOT. Ha, well have fun on your trip.
