Very enjoyable! - Our tour guide, Daniel, was very informative, personable & had a great sense of humor! There were several stops along the way for photo opportunities. The sights were beautiful. The tour also included a BBQ lunch & a visit at a dog sled camp where you could interact with the dogs & puppies. Overall this excursion was very enjoyable!

Grand Day Out - Fabulous trip, with great photo opportunities and lunch. Our driver/ guide, Epaul, was informative and also very patient and accommodating. We took this trip because the train was fully booked - great decision! I think we saw more, went further, and had far more comfortable seats! We could see the train at one point, so it was great to take a photo of it rather than be in it. Epaul was happy to drop us in the centre of town at the end so we could have a good look around at leisure. From there it was a 5 minute level stroll back to the ship. I'd definitely recommend this trip.

A Great experience - The bus gave us time to observe the wonders of Alaska. The glaciers, the lakes, and the wonder of how the Klodikers ever made it to the gold fields. An amazing trip with a great guide. The stop for lunch was a good break and the BBQ delicious.
