Train Tours in Alaska

There’s something so atmospheric about boarding a train. And, thanks to our forefathers, there are some pretty epic railroads to travel in Alaska. So, if you want to get to the places other transport can’t reach, select one of our Alaska train tours - you won’t regret it. 

If it’s the train routes of Skagway you want to explore, then the White Pass Summit Excursion is a budget-friendly option that will delight everyone in your family. Hear stories of those who made the Gold Rush journey on foot, imagining yourself among those so keen to get to The Yukon to make their fortune. Take in spectacular views of mountains, rivers and waterfalls from your vintage carriage, as you ascend to the 3,000-foot White Summit Pass. 

In the White Pass Train & Bike tour, you get to experience the same amazing train journey, but will make your return journey by bike - all downhill, you’ll be pleased to hear! Your guide will entertain you with fascinating facts about the Klondike’s history, as well as tales of the people who lived here. Breathing in the fresh Alaskan air, as you hear eagles call overhead will make memories that will stay with you for years. 

The Bennett Lake Scenic Journey’s reputation precedes it. It’s one of the world’s most famous rail trips - and for good reason. Not only will you experience the beauty of White Pass Summit, but you’ll venture deeper into Yukon territory, exploring the White Pass Museum, and taking a serene look at beautiful Lake Bennett as you head for the pivotal Gold Rush town of Carcross.
