A long-running and popular tour, this three-and-a-half-hour cruise on a genuine sternwheel riverboat takes you on two rivers past demonstrations of local activities on the shore followed by a tour of a simulated Athabascan Indian village.
Built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the purchase of Alaska from Russia, this theme part includes a mock gold-rush town with authentic pioneer log cabins, mining equipment, musems, a replicated Native American village and a huge, drydocked sternwheeler open for tours.
At this authentic gold-mining site, a 90-minute tour includes a film, a view and explanation of a 1928 dredge, the machine that scooped up and separated gold from gravel, and a chance to pan for gold.
