What are people saying about Skagway

Yukon Suspension Bridge and Summit Tour

Cameron_M, Jul 2026

Great guide and scenery

Our guide JP was great. He was very knowledge and outgoing and made our trip great with spectacular photos! We enjoyed the suspension bridge and the couple of photo stops we made. This listing states you spend 45 minutes at Bernard Lake, which is not true.

Sled Dog Adventure and Pan for Gold in the Yukon

Melissa_D, Jul 2026

Sweet pups and beautiful scenery

We had an amazing time enjoying the scenery and experiencing the summer sled dog training camp. Our guide, Chris, was fantastic. Knowledgeable, funny, and kept everyone- including kids- engaged. The drive out to the Yukon was beautiful, with numerous stops for getting out and admiring the scenery. Chris also took some great photos for us. Now, onto the dog sled portion. The actual sled experience was not a sled, but a 4x4 vehicle. We weren’t entirely sure how much of our movement was from the dogs pulling versus the driver using the gas pedal, but either way it was a fun, novel experience set against some beautiful scenery. The dogs all appeared energetic and well cared for. We also had the chance to meet the two week old babies (no holding these little ones) and snuggle the bigger puppies. The kids enjoyed gold panning and found a few flecks, but the real draw of this excursion is definitely the dogs. Everything ran on time, the meetup point was easy, and it all went smoothly.

A must when visiting Skagway!

Our naturalist, Nicolette, and Captain Jen had the perfect combo of lighthearted fun and interesting facts about Skagway and local wildlife. We did the 10am tour which allowed us plenty of time to spend the rest of the day exploring the town. Truly an experience that you don’t want to miss!

Musher's Camp® & Sled Dog Adventure in Skagway

Kelly_E, Jun 2026

Great experience for families with kids

This was the perfect excursion for our family with our two kids ages 2 1/2 and 6 1/2. It’s about a 35 minute shuttle ride from the port so it isn’t too long and you get to experience a lot of different elements between writing in the slide with the 16 dogs, pulling you, meeting the dogs, learning about the history of the Iditarod and snuggling puppies. Our kids had a blast, and it was beautiful as well as informative. There is a little shop at the end where you can buy commemorative things and some chips, but otherwise make sure you bring snacks. We had Houston as our guide who was awesome, especially with our kids, and Ethan was our sled guide. Absolutely would recommend!

Laughton Glacier Hike and White Pass Rail Adventure

Marissa_M, Jun 2026

Laughton Glacier Hike June 2026

This is such a cool experience! I loved being able to take in some views from the White Pass train as well as hike through three unique ecosystems (the lush forest, the open boulder / rock field, and the glacier itself). While the glacier is of course the “star” of this hike, the sights along the way are just as breathtaking. A few notes that may be helpful for your planning: -Packer Excursions sets you up with a lumbar pack and water bottle. There really isn’t a need to carry your own backpack. There are several water bottle refill points from mountain springs and glacial melt along the route, so no need to worry about having enough to drink. -There is a restroom on the train and an outhouse on the trail. -I did this hike mid-June and wore fleece lined leggings, a tshirt, a sweater, and a vest. Early in the hike I was just wearing the tshirt. I appreciated having the sweater and vest for the glacier. We really warmed up in the afternoon on the way back; I could have skipped the fleece lined leggings and would have been comfortable. -The only additional items I brought on the hike were sunglasses, sunscreen, chapstick, and a hat. -While you get to see pretty blue glacial ice from afar, you don’t really get up super close to blue ice on this trip. It is still beautiful! Just important to keep expectations in check. Sam and Austin were great guides and we wish them the best as they continue to grow Packer Excursions and share the beauty of Skagway with other visitors. Thank you for your expert guiding, level of preparedness, and sharing so many interesting facts with us!

Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour

Damon_C, Jun 2026

This excursion was much...

This excursion was much more than I had anticipated! Our guide Drake was very informative and was great with timing and he made sure everybody had an opportunity to get good pictures. The coach was comfortable. The sled dog farm was a tail wagging fun adventure. Even with heavy fog we saw an eagle, several tall waterfalls, and a couple of Dahl sheep. 10/10. - Arkansas Travelers

Bridge, Puppies, and Summit Triple Combo in Skagway

Suzanne_A, Jun 2026

Great overview of the area!

This was a great way to see the area above Skagway and learn more about the history. Drake was fantastic -knowledgeable and funny. He kept us entertained the entire time. I will note the puppies were from the local humane society and not Alaskan sled dog huskies, but they were still adorable and we did get to see the sled dogs they were training. The suspension bridge was unexpectedly great too. I would recommend the trip!

Skagway Shore Excursion: Half-Day Tour to the Yukon Border and Suspension Bridge

Natalie_T, Jun 2026

Amazing views, Mike was the perfect guide!

Our tour guide Mike was amazing! So fun, and very knowledgeable. He's not too bad with taking cell phone pictures for you either 😉 The stops were perfect, breathtaking. Pictures do not do it justice, you need to experience this in real life. We never would have seen so much that Skagway had to offer without this. The suspension bridge is fun, and has food/drinks to purchase while there.

Summit Experience & Yukon Suspension Bridge Tour

Karl_P, Jun 2026

Better than the train

We totally loved the trip with all the stops & photo shoots. The suspension bridge was amazing & the bison chili the proprietor served was delicious. Our driver Pam was very knowledgeable & treated us like friends. I would do this excursion over the train because of all the stops & we basically did the same route at half the cost. We were actually above the train a lot of the time. We saw a black bear & two cubs on the way & stopped for pictures- you can’t do that on a train!
