We chose Chilkoot Charters for our White Pass and Yukon Rail excursion. The tour guides and bus driver were very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They definitely kept us entertained during the various segments of our excursion. The train ride is a must when you are in Skagway. The views are incredible, indescribable, breathtaking! We learned much about the history of the areas we drove through on both the bus and train. We took so many photos and videos! The best part of our trip was that we were allowed to stand on the platform during nearly the entire train ride. We were in the caboose so nothing was behind us besides the incredible scenery. Highly recommend Chilkoot Charters. read more

We recently hired Chilkoot Charters for our White Pass Train & Yukon tour to Fraser, while returning by bus and we would highly recommend this company & tour. Initially, my family was upset that I booked the bus ride instead of returning by train, however afterwards they were extremely pleased with this tour. We met one of their employees on the dock after disembarkation and driver arrived shortly afterwards. Both were friendly and our guide was extremely knowledgeable. We would definitely recommend them. read more

We had a tour guide named Jenny from Utah and she was absolutely the best tour guide we had on our entire alaskan trip. She made us feel like we belonged with her. She gave us so much information. We talked to many of the other people that went on Norwegian tours that did not get to know or have all the information on the area like our tour guide imparted to us. Awesome job Jen read more

We toured with the bus up and the rail down, all with unfavored weather that didn't matter because Jenny made sure she still stopped at all the scenic points, which were still visible enough to appreciate the beauty! Along the way we were fortunate to see black and brown bears that Jenny went out of her way to turn the shuttle bus around after a shout out, "bear"! We had a delicious lunch and opportunity to explore various aspects of the Yukon! It's a well organized tour with great communication, clean small bus with big windows to take great pictures. They allow you to step off the bus for all scenic points. The only time you will not be allowed to step off is if there is wildlife for safety purposes, but there is plenty of window space for all to take pictures and video. Jenny is quite informative with a great sense of humor, a professional and courteous guide! read more

We booked our White Pass & Yukon Train from Skagway directly through the train company (instead of through the cruise line). Not only did we save money by doing so, but our return trip was aboard a smaller shuttle bus with less than 10 versus a large charter bus with dozens of others. Our return trip was, dare I say, better than the train ride itself. Samira was our driver and tour guide and she was fantastic. Told great stories, pointed out awesome points of interest and stopped at several photo stops along the return trek to Skagway. She was great and made the entire experience worth every penny. Thank you Samira for an unforgettable trip! Photo from one of the stops she took us to! read more

Chilkoot Charters - Emerald Lake - Historical Tours Near Me - Skagway, Alaska

I went on to Chilkoot Charters' Bennett Scenic Journey tour, bus first. The bus tour (really a large van) was great, we saw eagles and a bear, stopped at Emerald Lake, and a few other photo opportunities. On the train, Chilkoot Charters reserves the caboose, which is great for hanging out outside to take photos and videos as the scenery goes by. My only negative is that they should have advised us to bring sturdy sneakers or hiking boots as there was a surprise (optional) hike up the Chilkoot trail at the Bennett stop. read more

My wife and I did the train/bus excursion today. I want to take a minute to say what an incredibly kind and knowledgeable lady Ann Early was for us today. This lady exemplifies what any business owner searches for when they are looking to hire a quality employee. She was super punctual, takes her job and responsibilities to heart and leaves you feeling like a better person because you had the chance to interact with her. She stopped many times for our group of 21 to get the kinds of pictures you will be sharing and remembering for years to come, all while keeping everyone on time to move to the next stop along the way. She was courteous to other tour operators, and even took pictures for our group. Her stories were engaging, serious, and funny. I learned so much history of the towns, the gold rush, and the people that made the towns what they were. We highly recommend Chilkoot and Ann Early! read more

Thank You Lisa. tour was awesome today. she was very informative and patient. Skagway is one stop you should not miss on an Alaska tour. And take the Chilkoot tour and request Lisa! read more

We booked the bus, wildlife museum, train ride package and I have to tell you it was amazing! First of all, we didn't book it through our cruise-line so instead of getting on a huge tour bus, we boarded a smaller bus with around 15 guests. So easy to find, so easy to board on and off quickly and (I know this sounds funny but) the windows of the bus were perfectly clean! I hate when a site seeing tour has a dirty window you are trying to look through and take photos through. Now if you are lucky enough to have Jenny as your tour guide, then you are in for a TREAT!!! This gal was funny, knowledgeable, great driver, kept us on time, did I say funny? She MADE the trip! We took the bus first up White Summit Pass, and rode the train down, but made several stops (cause of the smaller group) for breathtaking photos. I cannot rave enough about Jenny - you have to ask for her if you can. :) Train ride was fantastic too! In an hour you got to see so many different landscapes as you come down (or go up) the mountain! Highly recommend!! read more

I booked the Yukon rail and bus adventure through a third party site and it was worth every penny. Had a tight window once we got into port, but I had no issues with getting to where I needed to be because signs were clear and everyone was friendly and helpful. After taking in the incredible views on the White Pass train, we went into the Yukon and back to Skagway. Mike, our tour guide, was the absolute best - making sure we got to take in all the sights and making this excursion something I'll never forget. read more

While the scenery was great, the bus was uncomfortable and didn't feel suited for the long trip, which made the ride less enjoyable. Making it hard to relax and enjoy the journey. I expected much better for the price. read more

We got super lucky and had Britton as our tour guide. At first I was a little worried, because my dad nearly missed the tour due to forgetting his passport, and then Britton's laid-back delivery made me worry that he would be largely focused on driving --ha! Later he told us he was a History major and Creative Writing minor in college, and man, it shows. He crafted--yes, that's the right word--a magnificent narrative of the men who came to the Yukon, and had us all spellbound with the anecdotes of everything from the organized crime to hair-raising narrow escapes. I loved the individual stories and his overarching theme about the human spirit, and of course, the views on the way there can't be beat. I am happy we did the shuttle bus there and the train on the way back, because the views en route were spectacular and Britton was super obliging about helping us take photos. Definitely my favorite excursion of the cruise! Oh, and the BBQ chicken was tasty too :) my only regret is that we didn't go see the suspension bridge, which by all accounts was pretty epic, but not if it meant missing out on Britton. read more

I took the combined Chilkoot/White Pass excursion while cruising to Alaska. I'll review the train ride separately. This review is simply for the transport from the dock to the train station, and from Carcross back to Skagway. The tour didn't start off particularly well. Upon exiting the ship, we couldn't find anyone to pick us up. So we went toward town, asked the info desk, and they pointed us back to where we'd been. Finally, our driver, James, showed up and hustled us to the bus. The return from Carcross went more smoothly. And James was very knowledgeable about the area, and stopped us at the most scenic spots, including Emerald Lake. More than that, he had random story upon story, some of which were very entertaining. That said, the storytelling got a little taxing. I also got a little nervous with his driving. At one point, he pulled out a box that a deceased friend had given him, and started reading a note to explain it, ***while driving***. This was all taking place on winding mountain roads. Yikes. All in all, I had a pretty good time with Chilkoot. But a little less talking and more conservative driving would've been appreciated. read more

I did a White Pass and Yukon Trail tour with Chilkoot Charters. The day went smoothly. They first dropped us off at the train station which we took to Carcross. It was very scenic and stopped at Bennett, BC as well. There was a bag lunch which tasted better because I was so hungry. James was our driver with Chilkoot and boy, does he talk. He was full of stories, very knowledgeable about the Yukon Territory and we made some great stops on the way back including Emerald Lake, and pausing to watch a bear. It was a relaxing way to take in history and natural beauty. read more

We did the bus/train tour. Excellent guide Jenny. She even passed out pictures and books about gold mining. She lightened up the tour with her humor. 5 stars!! read more

We chose Chilkoot for our White Pass railroad trip in Skagway since they offered the train up/bus down option that our ship didn't. I saw many reviews recommending this instead of the train round trip as you get to see different scenery on the return. The Chilkoot rep on the dock was easy to find right where they said they would be. The first rep handed us off to someone else who had us sit in his bus. He told us someone else was coming to get us and when they arrived we had to switch to that bus. Jennie was our driver/guide and gave us a quick tour of downtown Skagway on the way to the train. She explained the tour and told us she would meet us up in Fraser at the end of the train trip. As the train approached Fraser, BC we saw Jennie waiting for us. I was really looking forward to the return trip as many previous reviewers mentioned seeing bears and wildlife. We enjoyed Jennie's commentary and humor however we felt the ride was almost rushed going back. We made a couple quick stops but did not see any bears or wildlife as others had. It only took about an hour to get back to Skagway and we paralleled the railroad for a large part of the trip. I was hoping to see completely different scenery but it was much of the same. read more

We had a Chilkoot Yukon Klondike Bus Tour booked for Sept 17, 2022. Unfortunately, our cruise ship itinerary got changed and we visited Skagway the following day instead. We got an email from Stacy at Chilkoot on the 15th, giving us the option for a full refund or to switch to another tour. (the lunch facility from the Yukon tours was closing on the 17th, after our excursion) We opted for the refund and got it credited to our card within 48 hours! We haven't done a tour with Chilkoot yet, but we plan to when we go back to Alaska next June. They definitely have great customer service! read more

We took the small bus tour from Skagway to the Yukon. Our tour driver, Morgan, was wonderful!--very personable and knowledgeable. Loved his stories! The tour had several stops, including 2 at signs (Welcome to Alaska, and Welcome to Yukon), where Morgan took pictures of you on your own camera. He managed to keep everyone orderly and organized so that the pictures were taken quickly. At one of the stops, Caribou Crossing, we had a bbq chicken dinner (so-so), and toured the wildlife museum, and Royal Canadian Mounted Police Museum. They also had a petting zoo and husky village, which pretty much were rained out, although we did get to pet Husky puppies! They also had gold panning, which was not running due to the rain. I'm guessing, but not sure, that there may have been an extra charge for that. All else was included in the tour price. Other stops include waterfalls, views, and an historic town. I can't praise Morgan enough. He seems to be a natural born tour guide. Highly recommend! read more

I took the bus only Yukon Klondike tour (which was $95) since I had done the train years prior. I feel like the price was reasonable since it was a full day tour with a good meal. James was my guide. I enjoyed all his stories even though some of them were more like ramblings. He had the box about his friend like some people here mentioned.While I have no doubts that he was genuine about it, it does seem maybe like a bit of a $ympathy grab (it worked at least for me) since he seems to do it on every tour and towards the end. They stop at Caribou Crossing for lunch which is extremely touristy. That said, it was a great meal! BBQ chicken was tender and cooked perfectly, and the apple donuts were amazing. My only real complaint is involving seating. There was an obese family on the bus who needed 2 seats each. This caused cramped seating for many a few passengers (including myself). Would have appreciated a larger bus to accommodate for everyone and not just those who are obese. read more

We went on an amazing Adventure with Chilkoot charters last week in Skagway, Alaska! Train ride to white pass and bus back. Jeanne took excellent care of us. Gave us lots of fun facts as she drove. Super funny lady! Highly recommend anyone wanting a fantastic family adventure to check out Chilkoot charters. read more

I prefer to book my excursions outside of the cruise lines so I put quite a bit of research into choosing, especially with so many different tour lines. I ended up booking the Chilkoot Tours Yukon Adventure, there were 8 of us in our group and I really wanted to go with one of the smaller vans rather than the big bus. I chose the bus tour over the train because the bus goes along the same path as the train, but you get the chance to stop to get out and take pictures and, I think, enjoy more of the area. There were only about 10 others in the tour besides our little group, which made a very nice size. I was very happy with Chilkoot tours and James our driver. He is blessed with the art of storytelling, and he had some great stories for us that really enhanced the ride. There is so much beautiful scenery, its almost hard to take it all in, but James had some great places to stop to get pictures. We were even able to stop and get pictures of the mountain goats along the way. We even had beautiful weather which was an added blessing. The lunch was nice, the chicken was a little dry, but the homemade donuts made up for it. :) The museum and dog camp were nice little extras that helped enhance the experience. Would certainly recommend, this was a great way to see the beautiful sights of Canada and Skagway. read more

We just got back from Alaskan cruise/ land tour with a group of 22 friends. My wife did research and picked Chilkoot Charters for the Bus ride into Canada and White Pass train back to port. My wife and I ridden the train 3 years ago, and I couldn't wait for our friends to get to experience it. When we arrived in port, I was dismayed to find that an overnight landslide across the railroad tracks prevented us from riding the train. Chilkoot reps there at the port were awesome, explaining that they would refund the railway part of the tour, and that we would ride the bus both ways. Our group had our own bus, and Morgan was our driver . What a blessing! He was FANTASTIC! His obvious love of his job, and his hilarious sense of humor totally made up for us missing the train ride. He pulled over anytime anyone spotted bear/ moose etc. A funny touch was at the Welcome TO Alaska sign. He volunteered to take every couple's picture in front of the sign. Morgan collected our phones, took everyone's picture and gave us our phones back. Later we discovered that he added his smiling selfie to all of our pictures! Nice touch! We have been on many tours throughout many cruises and I have honestly never enjoyed a tour and guide as much as this! Chilkoot also processed everyone's refunds quickly! Great experience overall! read more

Chilkoot Charters - Morgan, our guide! - Historical Tours Near Me - Skagway, Alaska

So happy we went with Chilkoot Tours for our 7 hour scenic tour. It was a 14 person tour which was more intimate than the larger tour buses booked through the cruise ships. Since we didn't take the train, we stopped at a few more places and spent more time taking pictures than others on our tour before we drove to the Railroad Depot to pick them up. I bet the view was awesome from the train ride, but there were not stops for pictures on the train. I know it's not worth taking the train both ways as it gets boring. On our tour, we stopped by several lakes (including Emerald Lake), some waterfalls, the town of Carcross, and Caribou Crossing in Canada. The snowcapped mountains and the yellow fall colors were photo worthy especially with the mild sunny weather especially after we drove past White Pass to the Canadian side. At Caribou Crossing we had a simple BBQ lunch with delicious cinnamon donuts. I enjoyed petting the huskies and the goats were adorable. I was a bit sad that there were no husky puppies as advertised, but I guess it just depends on when you go. Call them to verify if there are puppies if that is your reason for going. read more

Best decision ever! I was so afraid because you really don't want to screw up the time that you are going to spend here, in this unbelievable nature! Well, the tour was wonderful! Just as I wanted and more! We started with the bus and Kevin, our guide, was awesome! Making jokes, talking about history, stopping along the way when he saw a black bear, bold eagle, a giant moose and even a porcupine!!! And then in our way back to Skagway in that historical train and seen the beauty of the mountain topping with snow! You just stared in awe all the time. It was great! read more

We booked the White Pass Rail and Van tour months ago for our trip to Alaska. Unfortunately, while we were sailing on our cruise ship, we found out that all rail tours were cancelled on the day we were supposed to take our tour. This was beyond Chilkoot's control as all tours with White Pass rail were cancelled no matter if you booked with the cruise ship, White Pass Rail, or other tours directly. Chilkoot met us at our ship and provided us with an alternate van only tour. Kevin, our driver, was awesome. SInce we prepaid our tour, the owner of the company immediately refunded the difference of our tour package so by the time we came home, we had our refund credited to my bank account. In the end, the van only tour was an excellent alternative as it pretty much went to the same locations as the train, we were able to make multiple stops and take pictures at waterfalls, lakes and the "welcome to Alaska" sign, and most importantly our kids still had a great time. read more

The most amazing train ride you will ever take! Breathtaking! White pass summit rail in Skagway and British Columbia. James was our tour guide, and he was incredible! You can tell that James loves what he does because his passion is obvious to everyone. We started with a bus tour of the beautiful city of Skagway and boarded the train to BC. The views were something unreal! When we arrived to Canada, we got off the train and headed over to the tour bus were James was waiting for us to drive us back into Skagway. We made a few stops along the way for photos. James narrated the whole time, and we had a chance to learn so much. We also enjoyed the story about "Jack". If you want to know the story, book a tour with James, and you will not be disappointed. read more

I cannot speak highly enough of Chilkoot Tours. They were integral in making our stop in Skagway the highlight of our cruise. James was our tour guide and he was amazing! He was like an Irish Mr. Rogers - a wonderful storyteller and a sweet person! read more

Ditto on the below comments w/r/t James, he was our tour operator on our recent cruise excursion in Skagway.... phenomenal guide and really great experience w/ Chilkoot b/c of him. HIGHLY recommend this tour, which is a combination of bus tour, plus lunch stop, and train ride. Really enjoyed the different facets of breaking up the tour this way, worked perfectly for our group and allowed us to really get a holistic view of this type of trip. I would go again no doubt. read more

We elected to take the train up and bus tour back, which worked out perfectly for us, as we had a clear, sunny day. Our Chilkoot guide, Mike, met us on the dock and gave us a brief introduction to Skagway on the brief trip to the train station. We were assigned the last car, and chose to sit on the left side of the train to have a better view. The train ride was scenic and and there was an informative narration throughout the roughly 2 hour ride. Bottled drinking water was supplied, and there was a heater and restroom in each car. Many people chose to stand outside (either front of back) to take pictures, although you can't hear the narration outside. We were so fortunate to have a clear day, as the vistas were breathtaking! Be sure to bring your passports, as you will need them before getting off the train in Fraser. Passport cards were fine. Mike whisked the eleven of us on our tour quickly away, to get ahead of the large tour buses that filled the parking lot. He drove us into the Yukon with many stops for pictures along the way, including at the beautiful Emerald Lake. Lunch at Carcross was a BBQ chicken/cole slaw lunch with homemade donuts for dessert. Afterwards, we were given time to visit the taxidermy museum. Although not my personal cup of tea, the exhibits were incredibly well done. There were sled dog rides on wheeled carts, and it was fun to watch the excitement of the dogs as they were harnessed and finally released to start their journey. We had already done a wonderful sled dog excursion on a glacier in Juneau, so this was not a highlight for us, but it would be a less expensive way to experience a sled dog ride. We spent the next couple of hours in the mini-bus with Mike, as he guided us on our journey back to Skagway, stopping for pictures along the way. Mike has to be the best tour guide I have ever met, bar none. Mike was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a tremendous amount of information, not just about the history, and geography of the area, but about living in Skagway. The way he wove together factual information, stories, jokes, and music was masterful. The journey back to Skagway could have been a little sleep-inducing after lunch, but Mike was so entertaining, he kept us awake. One hint - get off the bus at every stop, unless it's pouring down rain. The fresh air is invigorating, and Mike (who majored in photography) takes great pictures upon request. Here are some reasons that Mike is a great tour guide: 1) He's knowledgeable, warm, and entertaining 2) He gives important insiders tips like: Be sure to go to the bathroom on the train by such and such time, otherwise you'll get stuck in a long line at the train station. 3) He skillfully managed our time so that we were ahead of the big tour buses. We were able to view and take pictures unencumbered. What a joy it was to ride a small bus and to be able to move quickly as opposed to the big tour buses with 50+ people getting on and off at every stop. 4) Even though there are no restrooms on the bus, he planned stops strategically. 5) He used to be a photography major and takes great pictures, knowing exactly where you should stand to get the best background. 6) He thinks of the little things, like having plug-ins available for all different brands of cell phones so you can re-charge along the way. 7) He has personally purchased great binoculars for passengers to use (and shame on the person who walked off with one of his pairs the day before!) 8) He plays great music at just the right time, and doesn't talk incessantly throughout the tour. Final thoughts: 1) I thought the train ride/bus tour combination was a perfect combination as a round-trip train ride could get monotonous. You definitely see different things on the road than you do on the train. 2) Unless having a bathroom onboard a large 50+ passenger bus is essential for you, book a smaller tour with Chilkoot. With 11 people, we felt like we were having a private, custom tour. 3) Recognize that weather/viewing conditions are dependent on Mother Nature, who does not adhere to any cruise line schedules. Dressed in layers, prepare for the worst and hope for the best, but please realize the tour company and driver aren't responsible for bad weather, nor can they summon bears for viewing 4) Tipping can be a controversial subject, but I would imagine that being a seasonal tour guide is not the highest paying job around. In addition to a heartfelt handshake, tour guides greatly appreciate gratuities, and depend on them for income. (We tried to tip in the 15-20% range for each of our excursions in which we felt our guides did an excellent job.) Lastly, Mike told me there are no minimum numbers for running a tour. They will go with 1 person, so as not to disappoint their guests. Bravo to Chilkoot for this policy! read more

We took the bus ride up to White Pass to Yukon and the train ride down the mountain. Can't remember the names of all the lakes and scenic stops but it was a very enjoyable day. Our bus driver guide was Jenny and I really cant compliment her enough. She was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area. She is a funny, articulate, witty and kept the whole bus laughing and informed. She definitely made our day! read more

Chilkoot Charters is a small but very efficient company. We arrived late for the White Pass train tour we had booked with Chilkoot but owner Roy immediately called a bus back just for the two of us to make sure we made our train on time. At the train we met Jennie (sp?) would be our bus driver for the return trip down to Skagway. We found Jennie to be entertaining and very knowledgeable. She provided a detailed commentary for the trip down augmented by a collection of old gold rush photos. Mahalo Roy Jennie and Chilkoot for a great day. read more

We can't identify the actual mountain summit bus tour but want to highly recommend the narrator Paul! He was funny as well as a safe driver up to the Welcome to Alaska Sign on top of the summit.

We got 21 people taking the Train + Bus tour in Skagway, 8-18-2010. If you want to save $20+ per person and enjoy a small group tour quality, Chilkoot Charters and Tours got what you need. I believe the quality is on par or better than the ones offered by the cruise ships. Our tour guide, Matt (hope I got his name right), was really wonderful. One of the kids left his personal item in the bus. And later, before the ship departed, we found Matt standing at the gangway waiting to return the item. Talking about dedication to his job. It's a wonderful tour experience. The BBQ chicken lunch was pretty good. I wish we had more time to tour the area (museum, sled dogs, petting zoo, etc.). Just too much to see within one hour. Thank you, Matt. PS : I only gave 4 stars because Chilkoot completely ignored my requests during the reservations. Since we got 20+ people, I requested discount or free sled dog rides for the kids. But no reply. Then, one of the family members got a serious health problem, so he and his wife cancelled the entire trip. Since we still got 20+ people for the tour, I asked Chilkoot to waive the 10% cancellation fee. But again, no reply and cancellation fee applied. Maybe the cancellation fee is from the train tickets, but at least give me some reply. read more

Fantastic day tour with Chillikoot tours! We did the bus/train into the Yukon. Our tour guide mark was very passionate about Alaska and told us a lot of interesting stuff on the tour. He also provided us with several great photo opportunities. My only complaint is that they put us and another couple on a day tour with a big family group of five adults and five children under 10. The children were very badly behaved and spent most of the 3.5 hours on the bus screaming, talking loudly or hitting each other. Otherwise would recommend! Small bus, great stops and a fantastic day. read more

We booked the 7.5 hour Yukon Rail & Bus Tour. Actually took about 8 hours cause the White Pass train was a little late coming back but that wasn't a big deal and just gave us more time to take in scenery at the US/Canada border and talk to our tour guide some more. I booked it last minute the day before we were set to port in Skagway. We were met at the dock by our driver James and off we went! We were in a really nice and cozy bus with 9 other people with 3 seats left open. He was an excellent tour guide and provided us with great commentary along the way. If we ever come back to Skagway I would definitely look up Chilkoot Charters for another tour. When you're having fun and enjoying the company you're with, 7.5 hours goes by like a breeze! read more

Our party of four, from British Columbia, went on the Chilkoot Charters tour from Skagway on May 12, 2014 and had a wonderful time! We rode the train up and the tour bus back down to Skagway. Our tour guide, Bruce, was wonderful, funny and very informative about attractions in the area! We had a wonderful BBQ Chicken lunch at Car Cross, saw the husky sled dogs and did a tour of the Museum. The Museum is wonderful and should not be missed when you are there! The animals on display were awesome!! We are extremely happy that we booked this charter in advance and the price was also great! Bruce, you did a super job!!! Doug & Norma Mervyn Merritt, B.C.
