Morgan was incredibly patient, helpful, and ensured we saw beautiful views and went at our own pace (both fast and slow at times). He was very accommodating and kept an eye on us as we travelled. Great tour guide and highly recommend!

Our guide Sean is amazing. The tour is very interesting and fun. I was concerned regarding the weather but all the gears were provided and this makes the tour very comfortable to participate. Only one issue, gears may need to sanitize between each use.

Skagway Scooters Gold Rush was one of our favorite excursions on our Alaskan cruise. We were picked up in the center of town and after a short drive, we were given gear to wear and debriefed about the scooter. Our guide, Carl was very patient with the novices in our group. We drove all around the Skagway area; taking in beautiful sites. Carl was very informative of the history of the area. We had so much fun!

Our experience was great. They were great to work with and picked us up and communicated on time. Will definitely do this again. Will definitely recommended over the other tours that the cruise lines offer.

We had an amazing day riding around Skagway! I'm glad this is the activity we chose to do. It was so fun and Skagway is absolutely beautiful. This was the perfect way to see it and take it all in.

Safety was a priority to make sure you know how to operate one of these scooters on a road. Great knowledge regarding the history.
Samantha_F, Jun 2026
This was the best excursion we did on our Alaskan cruise. Our tour guides picked us up in town, taught us how to drive the scooters, and then we proceeded to hit the road as a small group of 8 people. We had frequent stops with scenic views and incredible stories about the history of the land. We would have stuck around and paid for the same tour again if they had not been sold out!
If you choose to book this tour I can assure you, you will not be disappointed!

We had an amazing time and thoroughly enjoyed this excursion! Carl and Morgan were outstanding guides, from the thorough safety briefing to leading us on a beautiful ride through the area. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience both fun and comfortable.
We got to see so much of the surrounding scenery and even enjoyed a short nature walk along the way, which was a great added bonus. This is a fantastic excursion for anyone who enjoys being active and exploring beyond the typical tourist experience.
Highly recommend this adventure. It’s a perfect combination of sightseeing, outdoor activity, and great company!

Amazing experience. Very fun and exciting with a dash of history and informative tour around Skagway. Carl was an amazing guide. Can sense his love and passion for Skagway. Don't let the idea scare you, the scooters are super user friendly and extremely safe. If you can ride a bicycle you can ride a scooter! Don't forget to tip your guide at the end. They work extremely hard. You get so much for your money.

We had the best time, bikes were easier to ride than expected and all of the ground you cover really increased how much of Alaska we saw on our trip. We did the very last tour of the season and it was SO worth it 💯
Cindi_Y, Sep 2025
We had a great time, the views were spectacular, the scooters were newer and our guide was fun and knowledgeable
Andrew_D, Sep 2025
Suitable for anyone comfortable riding on any bike on very quiet roads. Bikes were in great condition and the guide was very friendly and knowledgeable.
Daniel_A, Sep 2025
The tour guide Axton and organizer Morgan were so easy going. We learned so much during our stops along the way. And of course, the scooters were fun!
Judy_R, Sep 2025
Axel was amazing!! We had a great time In Skagway riding scooters. ✔️✔️✔️ checking off one more thing on my bucket list. We went on roads with very little traffic, including dirt roads. Axel made sure we were safe riding and was so knowledgeable about Skagway. Thank you Axel we had a great time….best day ever!!
Morgan thank you for shuttling us to get our gear and scooters. You run a top notch company!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
If you’re thinking about this, stop thinking and book it, you’ll have a blast
I had an excursion booked for three hours in the morning and still had time to do this!
Rachel_F, Sep 2025
This was a 10/10 for us! We felt the rush of the air while zooming along the most beautiful sites of Skagway. Our tour guide Axton stopped at all the historical sites and Axton told us all about the history and background of each stop. We didn’t feel like we were on a tour since we have the rush of the wind in between short stops. He was knowledgeable and easy to interact with. Super laid back guy that made you feel safe in the wilderness. I would definitely recommend this route when going to Skagway for the day!
Pamela_H, Sep 2025
This is an activity that uses real roads being used by other motor vehicle vehicles larger than you. You should be comfortable driving on the road and obeying traffic laws. Our guide was very informative on how to use the motorbike: how to signal, accelerate and brake safely. We drove on roads and saw sites that were astounding and breathtaking. So glad I chose this tour off the beaten path.

Honda ruckus scooter were fun. Great trips. Axion the guide was really good also. It’s interactive rather then just sitting and watching.
Mike_S, Aug 2025
We had a great time on this tour in spite of the rainy weather! The clothing and protective gear provided enhanced the experience signicantly, keeping us warm a dry throughout the ride.

If you are comfortable on a bike it is easy. We had a great time the guides were kind and patient and kept us safe. We stopped at many beautiful spots, and the guides were full of information.
Nicole_N, Aug 2025
Fun tour with a few stops along the way for information on what you’re seeing! Safe and unique, and we had a wonderful guide.
JoMarie_M, Aug 2025
It was way more than what we expected. It was so much fun. We would definitely recommend this excursion.

Lisa_F, Jul 2025
Fun riding and water fall wonderful! Enjoyed guide and fun route - all equipment you might need provided.
Tammy_H, Jul 2025
Short walk into town. Van took us to the area where the scooters and guide was. We put on our gear. Then he showed us how to ride the scooter. All of us got to practice before we took off on the scooters. I was nervous about this excursion since I never rode one before but oh boy, it was so much fun! We saw a lot of bald eagles and the scenery was amazing! Went to a cemetery that is supposed to be haunted. The guide made sure frequently that no one was too far behind. If so, we stopped and waited for the rest of our group. I had a blast. I loved this so much and one of my favorite excursions.
Alison_B, Jul 2025
Book this experience!!! We were a group of 4 adults, 3 of which were inexperienced riders. Our guide was patient, helpful, and made sure we were confident on the bikes before hitting the road. The 3 hours were packed with info on Skagway and the Chilkoot Trail. And the smaller group size made it an extra special experience. All this on top of spectacular vistas. 10/10 recommend!
Joe_C, Jul 2025
Acton our Guide was very knowledgeable, professional and fun. Did a great Job. Good tour highly recommended it.
Andrea_E, Jul 2025
Our guide was knowledgeable about the area and a patient teacher helping us feel confident with our scooters and equipment. Great views and beautiful country!
Michelle_S, Jul 2025
Getting there was quick. Really kind men who run it. Had fun zipping all over. Need better instruction on where to meet.

Went on an Alaskan cruise with my 22 yr old son and 18 yr old daughter. Neither one likes to do the typical herd mentality of buses and trains so I looked for something with individuality and this excursion was perfect. They supplied all the gear and 10 minutes into our ride it started raining. This only added to the adventure with all the scenic stops and open road feel. Meet spot is easy to find in Skagway where Morgan will take you to the scooters just outside of town. Axton makes sure you are comfortable with riding the scooters and your off for a great adventure. My kids said this was the highlight of the cruise. Highly recommended as you can do boast excursions in other stops. Thank you gents!
