Wild Adventure Yukon Tour into Canada including City and Summit

Elizabeth_M, Sep 2026

Absolutely stunning scenery. Not to be missed.

Connor did a great job driving and describing the incredible British Columbia and Yukon territory views are stunningly on touched and goes on mile after mile. The lunch was fine at the wilderness center and we are so glad we took the time to go so deep into the Yukon. The train goes up to the Yukon, but this tour goes into the Yukon for at least an hour. Highly recommend.

White Pass Deluxe Tour from Skagway

Jim_A, Sep 2026

Great tour

Ty was our driver/tour guide. He was great! He has so much passion for Skagway and very knowledgeable about the history of Skagway. He stopped at points of interest along the way which the train couldn’t do so that’s why I chose this tour and I wasn’t disappointed.

Skagway City and Summit Tour

Julie_P, Sep 2026

Loved the tour and guide!

I loved how knowledgeable our tour guide was about the history. Plus she was funny, friendly, and very helpful. My favorite thing is that we were able to get out and take pics or see better views than just staying on the bus. Those taking the train don't have that option.

Grizzly Falls Ziplining Expedition

Ashli_D, Sep 2026

This was the best...

This was the best ziplining excursion! I felt safe the entire time & it was so beautiful. The guides were nice, professional, & went above and beyond to make sure you had the best experience. Savannah was fantastic! She was personable, friendly, & we could tell she loved doing her job. The tour bus guide Chris was so knowledgeable about Alaska & made the ride up the mountain extremely enjoyable.

Dog Camp Activity and Pan for Gold from Skagway

Kaitlyn_C, Sep 2026

10/10 Would come back again!!

We had such an amazing experience on the dog sled tour in Skagway! Our bus guide, Ty, was so much fun, very informative, and an excellent driver. The ride to the dog sled camp was beautiful, with incredible scenic views and a couple of stops along the way where we were able to get some amazing photos. Once we arrived at the camp, we got to spend some time with the puppies before heading out on the dog sled, which was definitely a highlight! I also highly recommend staying for the information about the dogs and their lifestyle. It was so interesting to learn about how they live, train, and prepare for their work. We also got a short gold panning tutorial and then got to try it ourselves. We even managed to find a couple of tiny flakes of gold, which was such a fun surprise! Overall, it was such a fun and memorable experience, and we would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Skagway!

Yukon Husky Puppy Play Time & Summit Tour

Kristin_H, Aug 2026

Puppies, puppies and more puppies!

We had a great time on this tour. They had 3 litters of puppies, 1 litter of Alaskan huskies and 2 litters of foster puppies. Total of 15. There was a small gift shop with snacks and a few other things that takes credit cards. They also had a treat jar that you can buy dog treats 4 for $1 cash. This version of the trip does not include the ride on the cart pulled by the dogs - everyone else on our bus had booked that version. They all did that-we had more puppy time! We were still invited to listen to the talk about gear, training and the Iditarod. Our guide Grace was very good. We enjoyed her stories of life in Alaska. She also knew great places to stop for photos. We didn’t have any trouble finding the meeting point. The tour company sent detailed instructions.

Private 4 Hour tour to White Pass and the Yukon Suspension Bridge

Mary_E, Jul 2026

A Private and Flexible alternative to the Train

This was a very nice private tour that works as an alternate to the train ride, but with more flexibility and the ability to spend more time at places along the way. We left the boat early and had lunch in town, then Tom picked us up from there for the tour at noon. We saw some goats on the mountains and a bear or two, and lots of beautiful countryside. This was a comfortable and nicely paced tour, and we all enjoyed the experience.
