When you visit Alaska, you may wish to rent an RV. Here's how to find an Alaska RV Rental online.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Step 1

The main hub for RV rentals in Alaska is the town of Anchorage. In Anchorage, motor homes can be rented from $150-$220 a day, depending on the season and size of the RV you intend to rent.
Step 2

Reserve online. A few of the Anchorage RV rentals offer substantial discounts to those who book online.
Step 3

When you arrive in Anchorage, take a taxi over to the RV rental you chose online. They are all located fairly close to the airport.
Step 4

Don't forget the cost of gas. Gas in Alaska ranged in price from $4.50 to $5.69 in certain roadside locations during 2008.
Step 5

The more members in your party, the cheaper the trip will be per person. Three or four people sharing a large RV will save much more than two people renting a small RV, owning to the cost of gas and rental fee structure.
Step 6

Drive safely! Make sure you can handle the task of driving a recreational vehicle. Most RVs rented in Alaska are based on the body of the Ford Econoline Van, and they all have automatic transmissions.
