Great way to see the town and learn some history while staying active! - E-bike tours are a wonderful way to see a new town and get highlights from local residents. This was a fun tour! Kaitlyn was a great tour guide- we received highlights of the town and area, she was always ready to take pictures, and I learned a lot about the history of Skagway. We had a small group and were able to open up our speed on the highway and hills. My friend and I were in port on a cruise and thought this was a good way to see the area and stay active! Highly recommend booking with this company!

Highly Recommend! Highlight of our trip to Alaska - What a fantastic experience we had with Klondike Electric Bicycles! We opted for the self guided tour from Skagway to Dyea and what an adventure! The bikes were so fun and easy to use. Loved climbing the hills around town with the electric assist and throttle. Nicole was so kind and helpful in giving us an overview of highlights and recommended stops. The AP guide was helpful in providing us information along the route. The provided charcuterie lunch was fantastic! The sights and views along the route were incredible including bald eagles. We spent 6 hours on our bike tour and covered over 30 miles (you could complete the route faster but we enjoyed a few small hikes along the way). Our day on the e-bikes was a highlight of our trip to Alaska. Highly recommend!

Very interesting tour - Our guide Kaylee was very knowledgeable telling us story after story of Skagway history. The bikes were quite easy to use. It was a bit cold, windy and with light rain but this did not deter Kaylee from showing us all around during our 3 hour trip. The waterfall was gorgeous and the cemetery was very interesting. We would highly recommend.

Love this tour!!!! - This electric bike tour was our favorite excursion of all 3 ports, and highlight of our Dawes Glacier cruise with Celebrity. I'll never do a cruise again but I'll do any electric bike tour offered anywhere in the world. It was so invigorating and Kaylie was a great tour guide! Love Skagway, I wish I could have pedaled around for an entire day. Much love, thanks you guys.... Also, your shop was one of my favorites in town. Love your items for sale xo 5 STARS 🌟

E bike tour - Seeing Skagway from a different view. Biked all over the area. Bikes need matainence. as breaks on some were very loud. Found the guide very knowledgeable but not very engaged. Gold panning was very underwhelming
