Bear watching in Alaska is a special experience that's a little different from other tours or visits. To get the most out of it, be ready for a few things. You might not have access to bathrooms, so you'll need to use the bushes. Your guide will help you find a good spot. You'll also spend a lot of time watching the bears and being outdoors, no matter the weather, for several hours.
Many bear viewing Alaska trips include having lunch and staying at a remote lodge, where you'll travel by boat. Others are in the wild, and after landing, you might need to walk a bit to reach the viewing areas.
If you're looking for a really special wildlife experience, seeing bears in Alaska is hard to beat. The wild, open areas of Alaska are some of the best places in the world to watch brown bears, black bears, and grizzly bears in their natural home, sometimes all on the same trip.
You could spot salmon-eating brown bears at Brooks Falls or see black bears walking through the Tongass National Forest.
This is especially true with Princess Cruises, which makes it easy to visit some of the best bear-watching spots in Alaska as part of your cruise. Alaska is special because it's the only U.S. state where all three types of North American bears black bears, brown bears (which include grizzlies), and polar bears live in the wild.
