This tour starts
at the White Pass depot in Whitehorse by Highway
Coach to Fraser, BC, connecting with the world
famous narrow gauge White Pass railway over the
White Pass Summit and into Skagway. Both bus
and rail are fully narrated with seasoned local
drivers who can entertain you with the rich history
of the highway. A brief stop at historic Carcross
and photo-op along the way. Points of interest
of this trip are summarized below.
You will be able to visit Skagway for at least 3 hrs, enough
to drain your wallet with exciting gifts, memorabilia, etc.
You may just want to walk around or see museums or shows.
Then at 3:30 PM the bus meets you in Skagway and brings you
back to Whitehorse around 6:30 PM.
The rail ride according to many, is the "ultimate" highlight
(or one of the highlights) of their Skagway visit. Imagine
you are on top of the mountain almost 3000’ above sea
level on an engineering marvel, railway built of gold. Scenery
is breathtaking!
