Thank you for joining Klondike Tours for your day here!

Hello, our wonderful guests!

I know you have received a confirmation letter explaining our meeting spots and pick-up locations, but since then, there has been a rock slide, and the city of Skagway has had to make some changes at one of our major docks. Doing so has forced Klondike Tours into changing how we meet before tours.
So we will no longer be meeting at the docks; we will be requesting all of our guests to seek rides on the SMART buses to 3rd and Broadway to our office (a 5-minute ride). SMART buses come to all docks every 10 to 15 minutes; please jump aboard and tell the driver you’re going to Klondike Tours. There won’t be a charge for this ride. You will meet your driver here at our office on 3rd and Broadway.

Again we thank you so much for your understanding. And just in case I haven’t said it enough “please don’t forget your passport”

We did a few excursions on our Alaskan cruise and this was by far our favorite. Max Glacier and Slim were corny and funny. But the dogs, the puppies what can I say. People have asked me my favorite moment of the trip and by far it was when Tom Brady, the puppy, fell asleep while I was holding him. I really appreciated how much we learned about what it takes to run the Iditarod and also learning about the dogs. Would highly recommend this excursion.

This excursion had it all! We were really pleased how structured it was. Started with panning for gold and seamlessly went to meeting actual participants from the Iditarod. Hooked up the dogs and watched them race around the track. Holding the puppies made the experience something our family will never forget.

Family fun for all! Group ranged from 3 to 60+ in age and all had a great time. Staff was fun and informative. And we got to hold puppies! What could be better?
