Skagway with a blast!! - This tour was exceptional! Adam, our guide, was fantastic—knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely enthusiastic about sharing the beauty of Alaska with us. The journey took us to stunning waterfalls, serene lakes, and gave us ample opportunities to admire the breathtaking natural scenery. We even stopped to take photos at both the Alaska and Yukon signs, which was a great touch.
The highlight of the trip was definitely the visit to the sled dog camp. We got to ride in an actual cart pulled by sled dogs, which was an unforgettable experience. The camp staff provided fascinating insights into mushing, explaining the equipment and the intricacies of the sport. To top it all off, we spent some time playing with adorable puppies, which was an absolute delight!
Overall, this tour exceeded all expectations and provided us with memories that will last a lifetime. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to truly experience the wonders of Alaska

Super fun, especially if you like dogs - The sled dog camp was great, and the sled ride was awesome! The dogs were so fun. The guide, Adam, did a super job and we saw a family of bears. Would do the tour again in a heartbeat!

Summer sled dog Remote Yukon Camp And summit tour - This was an experience of a lifetime. We booked privately through Skagway tours and our tour guide Adam was amazing. We hopped on a small bus of about 15 people and Adam took us to several beautiful locations and allowed us to get off and take pictures. He also provided narration during the way. He was so knowledgeable about everything and had a great personality. We also went to a dog sledding facility in the Yukon where we took a mile long ride with the dogs and got to pet Alaskan puppies. It was my favorite excursion of the entire cruise. If you have the chance book with Skagway Tours and ask for Adam.

One amazing Tour - My experience was amazing. Adam “Atom” was an excellent tour guide and driver. He knew his facts, told his jokes, made sure we were safe and assisted us with taking family pictures. He allowed us time to enjoyed the scenic views of
Skagway, the Yukon and got us to the Mushing camp to enjoy time with dogs and puppies. He also provided amazing tips for us for places to visit once the tour was over. It was a wonderful tour and one that I would take over again when I visit in the future.

A Doggone Great Tour! - Young Adam was our guide for a fun day in the Yukon while our ship was in port in Skagway. He was an energetic leader and driver while we went through the White Pass and into Canada. He explained the interaction between the U.S. and Canadian border as we drove through the lakes, mountains, and waterfalls to see and experience a real dog mushing camp in the bush. Ben, our musher, and a team of great Alaskan Huskies pulled us through the interior trails for a training exercise for these great dogs. After that thrilling run, we learned what it takes to compete in the 1000-mile Iditarod and then got to play with the puppies that were learning the sport at the camp. A unique and wonderful tour with a young guide who knows a great deal about the environment, history, and tall tales that make up life in the Yukon. We highly recommend this tour!
