Amazing views, Mike was the perfect guide!

5.00Our tour guide Mike was amazing! So fun, and very knowledgeable. He's not too bad with taking cell phone pictures for you either 😉 The stops were perfect, breathtaking. Pictures do not do it justice, you need to experience this in real life. We never would have seen so much that Skagway had to offer without this. The suspension bridge is fun, and has food/drinks to purchase while there.
Great Day!

An Unforgettable Tour with the Best Guide We've Ever Had – Andrew

5.00Andrew is one of the most knowledgeable and articulate tour guides we have ever met. Our family of nine joined this tour together, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. At the beginning of the tour, my daughter was not in the best mood due to an unrelated situation and chose not to join our family photos at the first two stops. Andrew noticed this right away. When we arrived at the suspension bridge, he picked a few small wild daisies from the roadside and carefully made a flower crown for her. He then gave it to her with a warm smile. It was such a thoughtful and kind gesture that immediately lifted her spirits and touched all of us. The scenery throughout the tour was absolutely breathtaking, but what made it truly special was Andrew's storytelling. He is incredibly knowledgeable, full of interesting facts, and has a wonderful sense of humor. Every stop became more meaningful because of his explanations and stories. Andrew also went above and beyond to help guests find the best photo locations. At each stop, he actively helped families and groups take pictures and made sure everyone had great memories to take home. One of the most memorable moments was when Andrew played his harmonica while we enjoyed the stunning scenery. The beautiful music, the picturesque landscapes, and his engaging narration created an experience that felt almost magical. Our entire family had an amazing time. This was much more than a sightseeing tour—it was an experience filled with knowledge, laughter, kindness, and unforgettable memories. Thank you, Andrew, for making our trip so special. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Alaska.

5.00I have taken both the train and now this is the bus, the bus was far more extensive with opportunities to stop and take pictures as well as go to the suspension bridge, which was beautiful as well as going to the Yukon border. I think it was much better experience than the train and we had a great guide this is his name Andrew Andrew who resembled Ron Weasley from Harry Potter.
