Best experience in the whole of Alaska cruise
When you couple a natuarally funny, literate, committed and friendly guide on a custom private cutomised tour over the stunningly scenic Klondike region, that's what you get from this tour. Alex can keep you entertained through out with her awesome story telling skill. This excursion was hand down the best time spent during the entire 10 day cruise coupled with the land trip we had. The bus and the ride was comfortable for our 17 people gang. At times, we had a sing song session with tracks played from the bluetooth in the bus. Alex happily extended the tour duration by over an hour to cover all the way to Emarald Lake. She made sure that we were back with plenty of time to spare before the departure time. We were blessed with great weather too. Skagway has potential for several excursions - the train ride, mushing camp, suspension bridge, Whitepass, Bove Island, Carcross, Emarald Lake, several waterfalls, the gold mine cemetery, everything around the town, etc. When you consider the per head cost, this tour is way cheaper than even the cheapest single item. Compared to the train, the bus tour gives ample opportunities to stop and embrace the many sceneries along the way to your heart's content, and your cameras!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this incredible review! What a day we had! 😊 Your whole group was an absolute blast, and I think the bus sing-along may have been just as memorable for me as the trip to Emerald Lake! I'm so happy we had the time (and gorgeous weather!) to keep exploring a little farther together. Knowing our day was a highlight of your entire Alaska adventure is an enormous compliment. Thank you for trusting me with your group and for making the day so much fun!

Why this scores 46
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Skagway Tour Custom Full Day Charter For Up To 20 People: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Skagway.
How much does Private Skagway Tour Custom Full Day Charter For Up To 20 People cost?
+
Prices start at $2999 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Skagway usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Skagway Tour Custom Full Day Charter For Up To 20 People take?
+
Plan for about 7.1 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Skagway is not rushed.
Is Private Skagway Tour Custom Full Day Charter For Up To 20 People worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Skagway, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Skagway Tour Custom Full Day Charter For Up To 20 People?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Skagway Tour Custom Full Day Charter For Up To 20 People suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7.1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Skagway Tour Custom Full Day Charter For Up To 20 People?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Skagway can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Skagway and add a light layer if any part of the 7.1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Skagway Tour Custom Full Day Charter For Up To 20 People start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Skagway within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Skagway?
+
Skagway is a Klondike Gold Rush town built for excursions: White Pass and Yukon Route rail trips, Yukon border drives, glacier flights, dog sledding on ice fields and gold panning. On Outty we rank every Skagway experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Skagway Shore Excursion: Full-Day Tour of the Yukon, Skagway City and Summit Tour, Skagway Shore Excursion: Half-Day Tour to the Yukon Border and Suspension Bridge. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Skagway?
+
May to September, the cruise season. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Skagway?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
