Great tour while in port!

Published on Sep, 2024

There are a lot of great tours to choose from so you have your pick! We booked our “Skagway City & Mountain Summit Tour” via the website (in advance) and it was very easy to book and prepay. They have multiple tours per day so you can choose your preferred time. You can also book on the day, but they are subject to availability so it’s best to pre-book if you want a guaranteed spot… or go to the tour office early! This tour follows a similar route of the White Pass Railway Tour but for a third of the price, and you make stops along the way so it’s more immersive. We started promptly at 11:30am and our driver was friendly and informative throughout the tour. All photo stops are optional, you can stay in the van the entire time if you wish! Highlight: the walk to the Lower Reid Falls was great (a short walk through the bush). Pro: we had a lot of photo stops with enough time at each stop to take decent pictures. Tip: it gets very cold so bring a jacket or wear layers for when you get out of the van to explore/take photos! I would recommend this tour and this tour operator to anyone wanting to explore Skagway’s general area while keeping it more cost effective and more timely.

White Pass

Chad was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. There was even a duck knapping. He was great about letting us get out and take pictures

Wonderful feature-filled and varied short tour from Skagway

Published on Sep, 2024

So glad we chose to do this instead of a White Pass & Yukon Route Railway shore tour! Not only was it roughly a third of the cost, but we saw just about everything the rail passengers would have seen, and were able to get out to enjoy scenic spots and have two walks. The walk in the clouds at the White Pass Summit was fantastic, as was our walk at the Gold Rush Cemetery and Reid Falls. We also enjoyed the magnificent view from the Skagway Lookout. Our local guide was delightful. He gave us an insight into how it is to live in the town all year, not just in the brief Summer tourist season, and was a good and patient photographer as people handed their phones and cameras to him throughout the tour. It was amazing how much sightseeing and learning was packed into a three hour trip! Highly recommend to all cruisers who want to see White Pass, learn about this town, and still have a few hours for self guided enjoyment of this fascinating town.

Highly Recommended

The views were SPECTACULAR and the waterfalls were amazing! We visited on a rare sunshine-filled day and our tour guide was very informative. This was a relaxed three-hour tour and we would highly recommend it.
