Description

Private Skagway tours are the way to go for groups of 4 or more. This 7-hour private tour is on our 'Top Picks' list because it is the most comprehensive tour going beyond Skagway while maintaining the intimacy of a private group. It will be just your party and your local guide in a comfortable vehicle with fully customizable options. Cruise up and over White Pass Summit, see gorgeous Emerald Lake and explore the Yukon Territory. Stop where you want to stop, eat lunch wherever you want and choose from great suggestions offered by your guide along the way. Extra time on this 7-hour tour even allows you to enjoy activities such as going for a visit to Yukon's largest wildlife museum, viewing Alaskan husky puppies and sled dog team, and shopping in Carcross, Yukon Territory. It's all up to you!

You won't see this tour offered through the cruise lines. This is an exclusive private tour with a knowledgeable, local guide. Allowing ample time for photo opportunities, lunch, and any additional extras that you might want to do, the 7-hour tour departs from Skagway and follows the Klondike Highway north to Yukon. Your guide narrates the journey and you are in complete control of this totally customized and private experience.

We prefer to get an early start to this tour so we're first on the road. This allows us to beat the crowds and gives us the best opportunity for wildlife viewing. If you have specific requests, just let us know - it's your tour! Note: To add a dogsledding adventure to this excursion, see the Private Emerald Lake and Dogsledding Tour.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of customizations are available for private tours?
There are several different options for your group as we tour. A few examples of what we can do are: Enjoy the scenery from the comfort of our vehicle, stopping for photo opportunities from the Klondike Hwy for as far as you’d like to go. Take a backroad, so that you’ll get to see more remote wilderness areas of Alaska and the Yukon. Take a picnic lunch to enjoy near a river or lake. Talk to a First Nation carver about his love of carving and the culture of his people.
Is transportation included? Where is the meeting location for this tour?
Round-trip transportation is included with this trip right from your cruise ship. The guides will meet you right at the end of your specific cruise ship and you will be returned to the cruise ship at the end of the tour. You will receive a confirmation email and voucher with complete instructions immediately upon booking.
What if our cruise ship's schedule is canceled or delayed?
We will try our best to work with you to reschedule the tour to a later time. If that is not a possibility or your ship doesn't make it into port, then you will receive a refund, less any non-refundable fees.
Will we see wildlife?
Of the various Skagway tours, the Yukon adventures have one of the strongest opportunities for wildlife viewing.
