It's one-fifth of the size of the lower 48 — the contiguous United States — and larger than California, Montana, and Texas combined.
So unless you're planning an extended stay, focus on exploring a single region.
If you want to see southeast Alaska and the Inside Passage, book a cruise or use a combination of planes and ferries to travel between cities.
If you want to visit Denali National Park, then make Fairbanks — about a two-hour drive away from the entrance — your home base to explore the interior.
And expect to mostly travel by plane if you want to go to Kodiak or Valdez and check out the Arctic.
