FAM Tours

“What a fantastic trip!  It was everything I expected and more – stunning scenery, colorful stories, high adventure, wildlife, fine dining, and Native Alaskan folklore…”  Colleen Turner, 2011 Autumn AWE lumni Adventure Fam

Ever wonder what visitors experience in Alaska? Or been up before, but missed spending time in or around Anchorage? Visit Anchorage hosts three all-expenses-paid travel trade FAMS each year, including the Anchorage AWE lumni Fur Rendezvous/Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race®, Spring and Autumn Adventure tours. FAM invitations are extended only to qualified agents who have completed the Anchorage Wild Expert (AWE) Destination Training Program.
