This 150 mile round Skagway Yukon Tour, 6 hour adventure lets you enjoy all the scenery of the White Pass Summit tour, but takes you much further beyond the White Pass summit into the boreal forests of the Yukon Territory of Canada. See the pristine beauty of glacially fed lakes, towering mountains, and spectacular wilderness. Skagway Yukon Tour is also our best opportunity for wildlife sightings. We often see bears and the occasional mountain goat, Dall sheep or moose. We stop for a BBQ chicken lunch (vegetarian option available) at Caribou Crossing in Carcross, YT. See Michelle Phillips team of Alaskan Huskies and interact with sled dog puppies. There are more scenic stops after lunch including the Carcross Desert and the picturesque Emerald Lake. Time permitting, we enjoy some free time in the village of Carcross before heading back to Skagway. Many of our past guests have told us this tour was the highlight of their vacation.
After lunch, there will be some free time to check out their wildlife gallery with over 100 specimens native to Alaska and the Yukon territory. Caribou Crossing is also the summer training camp for Michelle Phillips, veteran Iditarod musher.
