I take you through my 2.5 hour walk through Seward in the rain to see as many murals in Seward as possible in the mural capital of Alaska! I walked from Seward cruise port to the Alaska SeaLife Center. You can take the free Seward shuttle to start your self-guided Seward walking tour, including to/from the cruise port, Alaska Railroad train station, Seward visitor center, small boat harbor (near Harbor 360 hotel and Major Marine Tours check-in), waterfront park (and Resurrection campground), historic downtown Seward (Kawabe Park), and the Alaska SeaLife Center. I also explain some things you need to know to plan your trip to Seward! Links below for the free shuttle, the Coastal Classic train from Anchorage, hotels, and Kenai Fjords National Park tours mentioned in the video. _Disclaimer: Some websites below are affiliate partners and I may earn a commission._ *There’s a free Seward shuttle that loops around town* Notable shuttle stops: cruise port, train station, Seward visitor center (hopefully there’s a mural walking map!), small boat harbor, waterfront park, historic downtown (Kawabe Park), Alaska SeaLife Center Seward shuttle map: https://sewardcitytours.com/free-shuttle/ *Kenai Fjords National Park tours you must consider!* One-way Vancouver/Seward cruises and train timings match up with the 6-hour glacier boat tour to see 1 glacier up close: https://www.viator.com/tours/Seward/Kenai-Fjords-National-Park-Cruise-from-Seward/d4368-5971KFCRUISE?pid=P00096896&mcid=42383&medium=link&campaign=ak-yt-sewardmurals If you’re staying overnight in Seward, the 7.5-hour glacier boat tour goes to 2 glaciers up close: https://www.viator.com/tours/Seward/Full-Day-Kenai-Fjords-National-Park-Cruise/d4368-7166P1?pid=P00096896&mcid=42383&medium=link&campaign=ak-yt-sewardmurals Resurrection Bay wildlife tour: https://www.viator.com/tours/Seward/Kenai-Fjords-and-Resurrection-Bay-Half-Day-Cruise/d4368-7166P4?pid=P00096896&mcid=42383&medium=link&campaign=ak-yt-sewardmurals Kenai Fjords sea kayaking tour to see glaciers: https://www.viator.com/tours/Seward/Kenai-Fjords-Private-Charter-Wildlife-Cruise-and-Glacier-Kayak-Combo-Adventure/d4368-181285P4?pid=P00096896&mcid=42383&medium=link&campaign=ak-yt-sewardmurals Pre-cruise or post-cruise glacier boat tour: https://www.viator.com/tours/Seward/Seward-Shore-Excursion-Pre-or-Post-Cruise-Kenai-Fjords-National-Park-Tour/d4368-5971PRTSWDKFCRUISE?pid=P00096896&mcid=42383&medium=link&campaign=ak-yt-sewardmurals *Anchorage to Seward train* Look for the Coastal Classic train: https://www.alaskarailroad.com/ride-a-train/schedules Read the reviews for the one-way train ride: https://www.viator.com/tours/Anchorage/Alaska-Railroad-Anchorage-to-Seward-One-Way-Test/d4152-48944P7?pid=P00096896&mcid=42383&medium=link&campaign=ak-yt-sewardmurals Get same-day roundtrip tickets: https://www.viator.com/tours/Anchorage/Alaska-Railroad-Anchorage-to-Seward-Round-Trip-Same-Day-Return/d4152-48944P1?pid=P00096896&mcid=42383&medium=link&campaign=ak-yt-sewardmurals *See my picks for booking tours independently in Alaska cruise ports* https://www.viator.com/partner-shop/myperfectalaskacruise *Where to stay in Seward… near mural locations!* - Puffin mural!

I’ve been to 20+ national parks and 80+ state parks in the US. This means that I like nature and the outdoors, and these are the types of things I look for in Alaska cruise ports! I've done a lot on my own in port, and I've also done 15+ tours in Alaska.
