About

Our journey begins with a historic city tour of Skagway, here you will see what life was like during the days of the 1898 Klondike Gold Rush and how it has evolved to present-day Skagway. Your guide will provide historic commentary as you make your way through town and onto the Klondike Highway. Enjoy breathtaking views as we make our way to the summit, the highway is filled with larger-than-life waterfalls, glaciers, and wildflower-covered valleys. Photo opportunities will be available throughout the tour including a stop at the Welcome to Alaska sign.

Before you go

Thank you for booking the Skagway Tours City & Summit Tour. This is a 2.5 hour tour leaving Skagway to the White Pass Summit along the Klondike Highway, with 6 to 7 different scenic photo stops along the way. You will be going up to 3,200 feet of elevation, so make sure to bring layered clothes. Due to the proximity of the US/Canada border, all tours will be re-entering the US and clearing thru US customs, so its important you bring original, acceptable government ID.

Please note: there is no cell service along the journey once we leave Skagway! This includes data and voice.
