Overview

When your cruise ship docks in Skagway, enjoy a shore excursion to see the best sights of the city and take in the views from the majestic White Pass Summit area. Following the Klondike Highway by mini-bus, you'll have the opportunity to photograph the Gold Rush Cemetery, Skagway Scenic Overlook and the "Welcome to Alaska" sign as well as other scenic stops along the highway portion. Our mini-buses are smaller than other similar tour options with average size of 24 passengers with a full tour. This allows greater interaction with your guide as well as number of photo stops we make. Our guides will take great photos of your groups for lasting memories!
All passengers must have a valid passport.

Pickup point
Pickup details

We meet you at YOUR cruise ship pier tour meeting area. DO NOT GO TO A DIFFERENT SHIP PIER THAN YOUR OWN. DO NOT FOLLOW ANY MAP LINKS. Look for representative with FRONTIER EXCURSIONS sign. Be at least 15 minutes early. We pickup at all ship piers and will find you at your specific ship pier. PLEASE BRING YOUR PASSPORTS. Bring all documents needed for border crossing-Passports (and USA Visas if required for your citizenship). No copies of documents accepted. Alternatively, you may meet at our office downtown at 3rd and Broadway in the Golden North Hotel Lobby. Look for the Large Golden Dome on the top of the building. Please check in with the office staff so we know you are meeting there instead of your ship pier.

Cool Alaska wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Alaska over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
