Skagway Yukoner Half-Day Journey


The journey youll embark on remembers the pursuit of gold and how it changed many men and women pulling up stakes from their own homeland to this land of ever-changing weather, vast territory, and extreme beauty. This three and a half hour tour parallels the train route, but has more opportunity to step out and inhale the fresh air, see the harsh snowy mountains of spring or the green meadows of summer. Wildlife can pop up unexpectedly – bears, Dall sheep, wolves, and possibly moose or caribou – since they know no boundaries. Engineering the Yukon River Bridge as you pass over it, makes one wonder – how did they do that? Your guide will help you discover lakes, peaks, valleys and maybe a small desert. Be a Yukoner for half a day and heighten your senses in our comfortable bus as your professional and delightful driver/guide describes the gold rushers determination to traverse the expansive Canadian territory. Have your passport with you to go through the borders of the United States and Canada. When we reach the Welcome to the Yukon sign to turn around, giddiness takes hold because you have also made it to the Canadian territory. Although you may not find gold nuggets, youll have discovered what the gold miners couldnt see – the richness of the Yukon Territory – This is why your cruise ship stops here!Meet our tour representatives at 3rd and Broadway.
