Anchorage and Fairbanks can be navigated relatively easily. Public transportation is available throughout each city. Seward is a smaller town and much of it can be covered by foot, bicycle and public transportation.
Our employees based in Anchorage have found that bicycling is an effective means of transportation if you do not have a car. Anchorage has an extensive bike trail system that can get you anywhere in the city. Grocery stores, malls, and post offices are all easily accessible by public transportation and bike trails.
