High-flying adventure meets Alaskan coastal rainforest on the Grizzly Falls Ziplining Expedition. There's a reason why this is one of the top must-do activities in Skagway on TripAdvisor.

$239Bennett Lake Scenic Journey
This is a unique Skagway train experience, taking you further along the route than the majority of the train tours departing from Skagway. Whereas many round-trip White Pass railroad experiences climb to the top of White Pass summit and turn around, this excursion explores Canada's Yukon Territory. Coupled with a guided bus tour, enjoy the scenery from 2 different perspectives with fully narrated history along the way. Add all the features of the normal White Pass railroad excursions with a Yukon experience to see more scenery, reach a little further off the beaten path and get a different perspective on the return trip back to Skagway. This is an exclusive Skagway train tour that has limited seating so advanced reservations are recommended.

Tour Price:
$114Yukon Discovery
One of the best Skagway tours, this one delivers a superb combination of scenery and wildlife opportunities. The Yukon Discovery is a full-day, guided trip from Skagway into Canada’s Yukon Territory. Starting right outside the dock, climb north in a comfortable mini-coach, gaining over 3,000 ft. up and over the White Pass summit and entering first British Columbia and then Yukon Territory. It’s not uncommon to see moose, caribou, sheep or bears along the remote Klondike Highway. Stopping in Carcross, Yukon provides time to visit a wildlife museum, a petting farm, and the chance to view adorable husky puppies as well. After lunch, continue on to Emerald Lake which is a spectacular sight – you might have to convince your friends and family that you didn’t Photoshop the pictures.
