An amazing family experience - Highly recommend!! This was a fun and educational experience with amazing scenery! Our grey bearded driver was phenomenal! We were in the 8 am group with Mike and had a friendly, interactive, knowledgeable, accommodating driver. He stopped and showed us 4 bears along the highway on the way! Emerald Lake was breathtaking and the driver consistently volunteered to take family group photos for all of us! Our one request was to allow more time at the Carcross stop. There were many things to do there (including 2 museums, puppies, lunch, ...) but not much time to eat, take pictures and do activities. The puppies are adorable but we barely had any time for them. This was a great family experience--even with teens who wanted to take puppies home! Yes puppies were available for adoption....but not realistic for families still traveling. We cannot say thanks enough to our amazing driver for such a memorable day!! Thank you Mike!

Great! - The tour was great and Raymond was amazing. He made the excursion informative and lively. Pointed out the wildlife around us and answered all of our questions. Emerald Lake is stunning. It was raining a bit on the way up so going back, he stopped at the spots where we could get better pictures with blue skies.

Great way to see the sights of Alaska and Canadian Yukon - This is a great way to see beautiful sight in Alaska and Canada. We had an informative tour guide. Stopped at several sights to take pictures as per description. Had snow in May … a white out which cleared by the time we returned back. Saw eagles and bears. Beautiful pictures. Everyone loves the train but this a 6 1/2 hr tour that stops at sights and is a fraction of what cruise ship charges for 2 1/2 hr train ride

Lots of laughs - We got to see a lot of wildlife, including two bears and a porcupine. Our tour guide, Rebekah, was very informative, humorous, and entertaining.

Experience of a lifetime! - This excursion was truly amazing, and I can’t recommend it enough! Our tour guide, Rebecca, was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great day. We made many stops, and they were all beautiful (carcross desert, emerald lake, dog mushing camp, etc). We saw a lot in the 6 hours of the tour. The weather was quite bad at first, but Rebecca made sure we still had a great time! She was extremely knowledgeable and went out of her way to take us to all the stops we wanted to see. The tour left on time, and there were vegetarian options for lunch. I think we saw much more than we would have on the train. I booked this tour instead of one through my cruise ship, and there was more than enough time to explore skagway after and make it back to the boat.
