Overview

While guided tours are great for getting oriented, they usually stick to tight schedules and discourage independent exploration. With this self-guided audio tour of Skagway, you can explore the town’s historic buildings and sites completely at your own pace. Install the mobile-app on your phone, use the code on your confirmation, and explore Klondike Gold Rush era buildings from the town docks to the historic businesses in the town center—along the way, you can start, stop, and pause whenever you wish.

Fantastic way to see Skagway on your own There was still so much free time after the tour. I loved that I was able to pause it too

Skagway Tour (in the rain)

The Skagway Tour was very well done and informative. The tour guide sounded like he was a local and took us through some off the beaten path to see several historical homes and buildings. The walking instructions were well done and the technology worked well.
