Of the many excursions we’ve been on, this one was just okay. On a small bus with 20 other tourists. It was a rainy day so the windows fogged up. The driver put on the defrost that blasted freezing cold air at anyone who sat beside the window. (Me one of them) until the girl in front of me had enough and complained. They handed out paper towels so we could wipe the windows etc… So the stops were at a couple of waterfalls and a some viewing spots. Being from British Columbia, we’ve seen a lot of beautiful scenery like this already. The driver was just okay. His banter and information was the no-frill kind. I think we got spoiled at our last Private Excursion with such an animated guide and the interesting spots. Anyways, it was a ride to the Alaska sign and back, that’s about it. We took photos at the sign, but when we got back we all agreed, we should have found a Private Guide, they seem to put more effort into the tour. We had our passports ready at the order, but no one at the border crossing felt the need the check.

We booked this tour through Princess Cruises. The Bus Driver's name was Gary. He did tell us his name but very little else. He was from Ohio and working in Skagway for the summer season. He drove us up the Klondike Hwy for a while and then turned around, with no explanation, and drove to and stopped at a Lookout. He didn't say how long we had there just let us off to roam. We overheard other drivers telling people all about Skagway and pointing out landmarks etc. We then were taken to the old cemetery. Dropped off and told to look for Frank Reid and 'Sophie" Smith's graves as they had killed each other in a gun battle. We all walked around aimlessly and only found the graves as we overheard another guide telling people the story of the gun battle and the guys nickname was "soapy". We then were driven back into town to go and watch the Days of '98 show. The driver warned all the men to sit up the back of the theatre as the show folk drag you up and dress you in silly outfits. We found the show quite entertaining for a amateur show. We got the story about Frank Reid and Soapy Smith which the Bus driver could have filled us in with. There would have been a lot more interaction from the audience if they weren't scared to say anything, thinking they would be taken up on stage and made a fool of. That was not the case and it was all a bit of fun. If that driver had told us about Skagway and pointed things out it would have been an interesting tour. I can't recommend this one. Walk into town and do the Days of '98 Show on your own.

Beverly was our guide and she was great. We had time for photos at each of the stops. She explained local geology, interesting stories, and Alaskan culture. Pickup at the cruise port was easy and we had the option of being dropped off in town or back at the port.

We did this excursion the first week in September and had a great time. Lovely views and a comfortable coach ride. The driver/guide (Mike) had a great personality and was very informative. We chose this excursion because it went into the Yukon instead of stopping at the top of the pass like our train option. There was light rain and overcast on the Alaska side of the pass; but it did not stop us from having beautiful views of the scenery. We had better weather once we crossed over into Canada and the Yukon. I certainly recommend this excursion, with this company, to others.

The guide was wonderful, very informative, much more hands-on than the larger things like the train. Everything was great except the fog and clouds on top, which is not the fault of the tour.

We were picked up at the cruise terminal and taken on a small bus with 20 other guests. Mike was our driver and guide and he was entertaining and informative. We had plenty of photo stops and comfort breaks. The scenery was amazing and we also learned about the gold rush. The BBQ lunch was good too and we enjoyed the round trip of about 7 hours.

Chris and his crew were able to assist with my husband's scooter, which allowed us to get on the tour bus. Our tour guide was delightful and very knowledgeable about the area. We loved the walk to the waterfall near the cemetery (even though my husband stayed on the bus). The drive through pass to Canada was well worth the time and allowed for stops along the way to get great pictures.

On our first trip to Skagway, Alaska, we couldn't have chosen a better tour. E. Paul was outstanding! His extensive knowledge, professionalism, and great sense of humor made for a truly enjoyable day.

Our tour guide, Beverly, made the experience both enjoyable and educational. She was personable, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. It was interesting to learn about the history of the Skagway area and also, of course, to see the beautiful scenery.

Great trip to the Yukon! Our guide Patrick was great and very informative with ample time to see the sites! I highly recommend!

Excellent trip, the weather played a bit with clouds and rain but that didn't dampen our spirits. We were 9 people (3 families) who were visiting on Princess Alaska cruise. Our driver Beverley Soja was amazing, She gave us a preview of Gold rush that happened in this region more than a century ago. She was knowledgeable and stopped at very beautiful views points. On the whole it was 2 hrs and 45 mins well spent.

I did two separate tours - one a minibus excursion to the summit and the other a city tour in a historic yellow bus. Both were great and since it was a perfect weather day, the sights were beautiful. Having been to Skagway before, I wanted something simple and scenic and these both fit the bill. First, the summit drive was driven/narrated by Haley and she was excellent. Very knowledgeable and personable and had been doing this for several years. There were several stops along the way for photo opportunities, including one at the summit to take photos at the Welcome to Alaska sign. She provided lots of information on living in Skagway and local life. The second tour on the historic bus was with Granger as the driver/narrator and he was also terrific. A young man studying medicine in AZ, this was his first season in Alaska and his flare for the dramatic makes him a perfect fit for the story telling he was doing - very entertaining. (I would suggest he study up on some of the 'facts' he was providing since for example, at one point he told us that a flight from Skagway to Juneau would cost one $25,000 and I questioned him on this since on the morning tour we'd discussed the same thing and learned it would be $250 which is much more reasonable. He said he thinks the morning narrator dropped a few zeros, but I've since checked and indeed, he was the one with the incorrect information. As a tour guide myself, I'd caution him to be mindful of knowing what he's talking about before he presents it as fact!)

Great tour and great tour guide!!! Much better than train. We were able to stop at several interesting spots and take pics. The Wild Life park was awesome! Great meal, petted puppies, and went through the museum.

It’s always interesting to see how towns deal with ‘boom and bust’ periods. I’m glad to see Skagway capitalize on the short time of boom. If I had a tour company, I’d hire Mike away from you.

Mike is our guide and he is fantastic! Mike made the trip entertaining, stopped for multiple bear sightings, and helped to take great family photos for us👍
