ABOUT US
At U-Drive Denali, we’re more than just a Jeep rental company—we’re passionate adventurers who believe that the best way to experience Alaska is with the freedom of your own 4x4.
After years of exploring Denali National Park, the Denali Highway, and Alaska’s vast backcountry, we realized that the traditional bus tours and car rentals just didn’t cut it. Travelers wanted more flexibility—to stop at scenic overlooks, discover hidden trails, and take the journey at their own pace. That’s why we launched Drive Denali, offering rugged, adventure-ready Jeeps that let you explore Alaska on your own terms.
And here’s what sets us apart: We’re the only rental company in Denali that allows you to drive the legendary Denali Highway on your own—no guided tour required. Other companies keep you on paved roads, but with us, you get the full Alaskan adventure, tackling one of the most scenic and remote highways in the world.
Whether you’re heading into Denali National Park, driving the iconic George Parks Highway, or venturing off the beaten path, we provide reliable, high-performance Jeeps that are built for the Alaskan wilderness.
