4.00Pretty drive. Not as much information as I had hoped, but our guide Hawkins, was new, but learning quickly with lots of personal stories. Good stops for photos. Simple system for picking you up and dropping you off. Bus windows fogged up in the rainy, chilly July weather. Not a lot of opportunities to use a restroom and they are portable toliets.
Disappointed!!!

3.00The tour itself was great. However lack of proper communication from Viator left much to be desired. We were given erroneous directions to meet at the tour operator’s bus. After asking no less than 3 different people did we find Skagway Tours. There are no street signs so putting a red dot on a map tells us nothing. After walking a third of a mile were then told that they were picking up at our cruise ship. Viator’s needs better communication with guests, logistical planning, and proper communication with the operator. Until Viator gets their act together, I would not recommend. Only gave 3 stars because once we finally connected with Skagway Tours, everything ran smoothly.
Great Tour Guide
