Visitor Information Centers

Visit Anchorage operates Visitor Information Centers in downtown Anchorage and at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport. The centers are staffed by passionate local volunteers and filled with information on everything there is to see and do in Anchorage and the surrounding areas. These accessible information centers are often the first stop for travelers after arrival: Visitors stop for brochures and local expertise as soon as they touch down at the airport. They visit the downtown Visitor Information Centers for more in-depth details before spending a day exploring the city. 

Located in the heart of downtown Anchorage at the corner of Fourth Avenue and F Street, the visitor information centers are perfect for greeting travelers staying in downtown hotels or attending conferences in the downtown convention centers. The iconic Log Cabin Visitor Information Center is an Anchorage landmark and a central stop for any visit. Even more information is available just across the street at the Visitor Information Center at 515 W Fourth Ave. It’s an ideal starting point in more ways than one: Multiple tours pick up passengers along the length of Fourth Avenue year-round, making Visit Anchorage’s downtown Visitor Information Centers an easy jumping off point for more extended excursions in Anchorage. 

The Visitor Information Centers are the place many adventures start, which means it's also one of the best places in the community for local businesses to promote tours and activities and interact with potential customers. 

The downtown visitor information center is currently open daily during summer hours, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The South Terminal airport VIC is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., though hours may vary depending on flight schedules.
