Answer 1

If you have the time and money to visit Denali by train on the historic Alaska Railroad, that's a really cool trip.  http://www.alaskarailroad.com/  Ditto the Kenai Fjords tour...beautiful and really different!  http://www.kenaifjords.com/  If you like to fly, you can take a flightseeing tour over the Valley of 10,000 smokes and see some bears down at Katmai http://akfinest.com/activity-description... .

If you go to Anchorage, stay away from stupid tourist dives like Chilkoot's.  Go try the fabulous food at Marx Brother's Cafe http://www.marxcafe.com/Our_History/ or the Moose's Tooth Pizza and Microbrewery http://www.moosestooth.net/ or their sister location, the Bear's Tooth Theater Pub http://www.beartooththeatre.net/index2.h...

And remember to check out the wonderful B&Bs in Anchorage which are less expensive and way cooler than any of the hotels.  http://www.alaskabba.com/  In particular, avoid the Captain Cook...very overrated and the service isn't impressive for the price.

Good Luck and enjoy your honeymoon!

Answer 2

well take a drive to Seward maybe do some fishing or go to the Sea life center  www.alaskasealife.org/   or you could drive into copper landing for a nice hike and dinner on the river at http://www.princesslodges.com/kenai_lodg...  

or you could just go into Anchorage and hit Chilkoot Charlies

lots and lots of people there.

Answer 3

spend some time in Anchorage and make sure you don't miss the Danai Peninsula!
