Someone was saying that Great Alaska Holidays was full up and had a waiting list for this summer deliveries. They too were looking into going with ABC if they could get assigned a rig.
Everyone that goes to Alaska by RV, has to have a first time and most of us survive it without much problems. Anything about the operations of the RV, read up on it before you go and don't hesitate to ask others in the campgrounds for "how to" advice if you need it. A couple of years back a young couple parked next to us in Dawson Town at the Gold Rush Campground, had rented a Class C in Whitehorse and didn't understand the way to connect the water, electric and sewer dumps. So in offering to help, I quickly found out they were from Paris and didn't speak English, but with panomine, a beer or two and both of us speaking some Spanish, I was able to get them comfortable with the rig. The next morning I did a walk along with them as they dumped the sewer and gray tanks, disconnected the electric, etc. I suspect in a day or so they were able to help others needing advice on RVing. LOL
If a person can drive 250 to 500 miles a day, then they can drive to Alaska with a good condition vehicle. (and a credit card with a good limit on it) It is just a series of many such driving days, one after another, more than most RVers have ever done sequentially.
