Casual bar that offers brothel tours for $20…read more One of a handful of places in Skagway that offer something gluten free. Every time I'm in Skagway I cone to The Red Onion for a GF pizza. Their cauliflower crust is pretty tasty and it's a nice treat. Came in early morning today 10:15am because with 4 cruise ships in port the wait would be longer later in the day. We were seated immediately, I love their Miner's Morning Martini basically an Espresso martini. The bartender's do a great job and don't skimp on the booze. Usually follow up with the Reindeer Fart Shot as those are quite tasty too but as I hadn't had any breakfast I was feeling the drink. The Classic gluten free pizza was as always yummy and worth the wait if you don't get here early. In this visit, hubby got the Big Dessie and AK Brewing vodka Lemonade enjoyed both.

The day was dry, clear, but blustery and our ship was the only cruise ship scheduled in port that day, normally 3 to 4 cruise ships are docked each morning for the day. The train accessed a rail spur allowing boarding near the ship, but the terminal in town is not a long distance if lacking mobility issues. Each car has outside viewing areas, and clean bathrooms, but unlike the staff, guests are not allowed to move between cars. If you spy an issue with your fellow rail car guests upon boarding like small screaming children I would change cars quickly after boarding. Even though water was provided with my fare I would suggest packing water jugs or bottles, and some nibbles ( I packed some yummy freshly baked cookies from a lounge on my ship) for the 3 hour ride, inexpensive snack boxes were sold on the return trip from the summit as were White Pass & Yukon Route ball caps for $15. Windows are large, but if you want the river view as you ascend the 20 mile climb to the summit then sit on the left side, when returning the right side faces the chasm. Ascending and Descending you should pass several White Pass Rail Trains so wave at your fellow tourists. Overall a nice experience for me, with great views. This is a seasonal experience that mirrors the Alaska cruise season, and it takes weeks to prepare the rail for each season.

The owner, Kathy, guarantees her cooking so you know it was really great! Miss Dolly is found in at least 3 locations around the resort! Clean restrooms, excellent friendly service and well-stocked bar. Would definitely recommend this restaurant just outside of Skagway at Mile 7 on Dyea Road)! After lunch we checked out the cabins and grounds and it would be a wonderful place to stay if we were not traveling in our RV!

Plenty of dogs to go around. We then learned how to pan for gold. You get to keep it! They measure your gold and tell you what it's worth. Very fun. The water is warm so you don't freeze when panning for gold.

Two stops are briefly made, outside town that provides a nice overlook of Skagway and at the other at the Gold Rush Cemetery where you get to visit the grave site of the one an only Soapy Smith. Tips: - Watch out for the seats over the wheels as the hump will take away much valuable leg room if your on the taller side - Use the facilities prior to the tour. Though at about the halfway mark at the overlook, there is a public toilet there; however, it will eat into you time to look at the view as there usually is a line

She was our tour guide, bus driver, and storyteller, and was a total professional! She managed to weave the historical tale of Skagway with the town of today seamlessly, all while driving the antique streetcar, and chatting us up as if she was our friend or some folksy Hal Holbrook. At one point, she sang her version of Home on the Range while backing up the trolley car and parking it. I've never seen anyone perform any better than she did that morning. Seriously. Totally believable. I highly recommend the tour and Kylie as your guide.

This was a GREAT tour!…read more We met Amy and Davis - two guides near the cruise port. We joined about 8 others in a van and drove about 30 minutes out into the wilderness. Roads quickly turn to dirt and it's pretty remote feeling. Amy and Davis then took us on a moderately difficult 2 mile hike rising about 400' in the Alaskan wilderness. After about an hour - we started descending which is also not the easiest to hike - but they waited for everyone and helped anyone in need. They also helped carry any extra gear if you needed. Amy took breaks every 10 minutes or so to allow everyone to rest and point out the local flora. We then got to a rive where a raft was brought in by other guided. After putting on boots, everyone boarded the raft for a picturesque trip down a very scenic river with bald eagles flying all around - eating fish and the like. We got stuck in an eddy of water for a while - but Amy got us out. Davis was still learning the guide role. After the river float - we helped get the raft out and they had cookies and hot tea / chocolate for everyone to enjoy. This was a SUPERB ALASKAN experience!!!! I would HIGHLY recommend this, provided you can hike a moderately difficult trail.

We decided…read moreto do this day excursion on our own and booked it through Alaska Shore Excursions for $598.47 for the 3 of us, saving $300 if we would have booked it through our cruise line (Norwegian). It was really nice because our group was really small, unlike going with the cruise ship excursion with a massive group. We got off at Skagway and the directions in the email said 'walk to the end of the pier' to meet an associate for Alaska Shore Excursions, not sure how we met up, I think we saw a van and headed for it. We were driven to another van, where Sarah took over as our guide and drove us to the middle of Skagway town so we could wait for another family, which showed up late. From there it was a 35 min drive to Musher's camp and we got some really great history from Sarah, who gave us the low-down on Skagway with fascinating facts such as: most of the wood used in Skagway came from a now-defunct town called Dyea that thrived over a 100 years ago, it was the size of SFO, but petered out for some reason. There are no MDs in Skagway, only 2 nurse practitioners. The high school graduating class only had 2 girls and 1 boy. Grocery shopping is limited to only 1x a week, on Wednesdays. The camp parking lot has a shop, but we didn't have much time to shop there. We had to get on a "unimog"; a monster truck Mercedes van outfitted with large wheels and low gears to take us up to a higher elevation (cooler temps for the dogs and less noise from yapping dogs for the Skagway residents). Once we got there we broke up into groups of 6 and we were led to our musher, Alex. We got onto a thing that looked like a super-large golf cart but it was pulled by Alaskan Husky dogs (fascinating history about them also). Alex's dogs had funny names like 'sushi' 'nori' 'wonton' 'fried rice' 'Charmander' 'Diglet' and 'Squirtle'. The dogs ages were 1.5 yrs old to 10 yrs old. The dogs did a great job pulling the 'sled', which was over 2,000 pounds. The ride lasted 10 mins and after we got to take photos with the dogs. We attended a talk at the end of the ride, led by a musher (too bad I forgot his name) about the Iditarod and how these dogs are training during the off-season and staying in shape pulling the land sleds. We saw a dog running in a giant "hamster wheel" and it was hard to concentrate on the lecture because the dog was stealing the show; the dog's name was Goodway. We got to pet Goodway soon after then go to the puppy pen and hold these baby dogs. It was a way to 'socialize' these puppies as well. I really enjoyed that. After our Musher's camp activities came to an end, we got back on the Unimog and back down to the lower parking lot area w/ the gift shop (again, not a lot of time to shop), and Sarah drove us back to the town of Skagway. I gave her a really nice tip because she contributed a lot to the total experience with her stories about Skagway and her expertly refined storytelling about a woman named Martha Black and Harriet Pullen, both influential women in Skagway/Alaska history. Would totally recommend you booking this tour directly with the dog camp or through Alaska Shore Excursions to save some money and also have a smaller, more intimate group.
