    About this experience

    We are 100% Alaskan owned & operated - Our focus is on giving you an amazing experience in Skagway on your trip to The Yukon and British Columbia. Unlike the other attractions in Skagway, we stop along the way and explain what you are looking at and its history to Skagway, Alaska, and the Yukon. Along the way, we'll see plenty of valleys, rivers, waterfalls, and Alaskan wildlife. The tour will continue up the Klondike Highway to a remote sled dog camp in the Canadian tundra, where you'll get to play with sled dog puppies & meet their trainers & handlers. You won't be rushed or limited to play time here! Our "Yukon Husky Puppy Playtime" and "Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp" tours offer nearly identical experiences, with the only difference being that the Summer Sled Dog tour includes an exciting ride on a summer sled dog cart pulled by our huskies, while the Yukon Husky Puppy Playtime tour does not feature the cart ride.

    An amazing day!

    This was an amazing adventure, Trey our driver/tour guide was brilliant, kept us entertained all day with his local knowledge and fun facts, he also made some stops at scenic spots so we could take photos! The dog sledding was amazing too, we got to meet the pups and have a cuddle, then a very interesting talk by one of the dog trainers before we went to do our dog shedding! Would definitely do this again and would highly recommend it! What a fabulous day!

    Great views and awesome dogs!

    This was the beat excursion we took on our Alaska cruise. Grace our tour guide was fantastic, she had so much interesting local information, stories about her time in Alaska and her dog, Gale. I highly recommend this one!!!

    Great Tour of the Yukon with Trey

    This company communicated with us frequently about meeting location which was a great help. The duration of the experience was nice also. Trey was our guide and he provided a fabulous and entertaining monologue that shared great information and allowed us to get a wonderful overview of the entire area. Would definitely use this company again.

    Best day in Alaska

    This was a perfect informative bus ride through different geographical regions and then a fun day with sled dogs. Kids and adults said best day of the whole trip. Learned a lot about the musher and Iditarod experience.

    Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Skagway.

    How much does Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $194 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 Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 4.5 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 Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 341 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Skagway, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour?

    +

    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 Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour?

    +

    Around 119 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 4.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Summer Sled Dog Remote Yukon Camp & Summit Tour 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.
