My wife and I were seeking a unique way of seeing Skagway that had some outdoor adventure. The idea of doing that by e-bike sounded perfect. The idea of learning about panning for gold was a bonus. It was raining. We told Nicole that an e-bike ride in the rain wasn’t going to happen for us. She excused herself for a moment, returned and said “suppose Zack takes you on the same tour in our Mustang. Now, that’s flexibility and accommodation. We accepted and went on a tour that we will forever remember. We still panned for golf (and got some), and toured Skagway with the “best tour guide in Skagway”. Hat’s off to Nicole and Zac for a truly remarkable and memorable afternoon.
We had a great experience! Zach did a wonderful job and was very knowledgeable. The E-bikes are really powerful and easy to use. The opportunities for photos were plentiful. The hike portion was beautiful to an incredible waterfall. It is uphill for a short distance. Overall highly recommend!
Thank you so much for riding with us, Steve! So glad you enjoyed your tour with Zaq!

We had a great time getting to see places we would not have been able to find on our own. Our 12 year old said this was the most exciting part of our trip. He loved being able to use the e bikes to get to the top of the hills. Zac was able to share a lot of the history and kept us engaged.
Thank you so much for sharing with us! We are so glad that your family enjoyed their tour with Zaq!
