McKinley Explorer is part of Alaska’s largest dome railcar fleet, operated by Princess Cruises and Holland American Line.

10 McKinley Explorer cars carry a total of 88 passengers aboard the train’s upper level dome sections, which offer spectacular 360-degree wilderness views from rooftop dome windows and amenities such as footrests and fold-down tray tables.

Tour guides offer commentary on the scenery between Anchorage and Denali National Park, a complete trip of approximately eight hours, though intermediate stops are available for shorter journeys.

A restaurant and outdoor viewing platform are offered on the train’s lower level, and bar service is available on the upper level.
