Great upfront communications as to where to meet to join the tour! Nice clean vehicle with a great driver/guide. Beautiful views at the summit and more than enough time at the suspension bridge.
I'm glad we took the bus instead of the train because we made several interesting stops along the way. Daniel was a great driver/guide. The bridge was phenomenal.
This tour was great!!! The itinerary was great allowing us to get off and take pics in certain spots. Our driver even pulled over when he spotted 2 bears on the side of the road so we could all get pics!!!
This excursion was booked from the ship two days before after Princess cancelled a similar excursion. It was an excellent choice as the driver was dry but informative and the bus stopped multiple times along the way to take in the scenery and take photos. He even took our family photos (other guides do that as well bur just adding that it happens) The suspension bridge was spectacular. Views from the bridge was amazing. Beware, mosquitos are all waiting for you to cross that bridge lol. We have done the train ride in previous cruise stops.. but this was much better tour and we highly recommend it for skagway.
Good experience, D-Hawk was great! Its a good way to see Skagway, do this instead of the train its better.
We had a fantastic guide named Aliyah. She was a wealth of knowledge. We saw beautiful scenery and it was a gorgeous day. I recommend this tour.
Our bus driver Pam was excellent !!! She was informative and fun. Loved the expansion bridge and hearing the stories of the Yukon.
We would have liked to have seen more wildlife, but the views were beautiful and the Driver was knowledgeable and courteous.
Our guided D-Hawk was a great guy with lots of info. Picture stops were great enough to capture the beautiful drive up to the bridge. Bridge was really awesome. On the way back D-Hawk spotted a Mountain Goat that included mom and baby.
It was great! Great views. Trey was a great tour guide. We got incredible picture. The suspension bridge was incredible!!!
