Loving Skagway by Sprinter
This tour is an excellent way to see Skagway and still have time to shop for souvenirs (we have also taken the train, but this tour with the iconic stops, is by far, in my opinion, the best). Our overall experience was amazing! Our tour guide and driver, Chris was so entertaining, accommodating, knowledgeable, and just an overall enlightening person to introduce my family to Skagway. We could not have asked for a better tour guide. I highly recommend this tour, as it did not disappoint me!

An average experience
I booked this trip knowing it was going to be a shorter version of another one we did 2 years ago that was 6 hours long. The website said 3 hours total, in reality it took about 2 and a half hours, and that time includes at least 15 minutes we waited due to road constructions. And the final stop, the cemetery, was also skipped as it was closed and not accessible. Weather did not help either, but that we can't blame the operator or guide.
I was just disappointed with the whole experience. Basically, we paid to be inside a bus most of 2 and half hours. Please keep in mind that the bus has small seats and we were not very comfortable during the trip. Also no water or snacks provided, not that I expected them anyway. Guide was providing some facts and information - it was fun for a while.
So in summary, it was a mediocre experience.

Worth it!
This was a welcome excursion, especially for those with mobility issues. Chris was the ultimate tour guide! I’m still laughing at his “Carmen” joke.

A Fantastic Trip With A Great Guide
My wife and I did this trip a couple of weeks ago, whilst on an Alaskan cruise. It was a well organised tour and I think we got lucky with the weather because it was blue skies throughout. Our guide Kayla, gave us plenty of stops on the way up to White Pass, and we got some great photos. She was excellent throughout, and really made the trip so enjoyable, so thanks Kayla!

Great Skagway tour — prompt, clean, and very scenic. The mini-bus was comfortable, pickup was easy, and the guide kept the tour moving without making it feel rushed. The stops at Bridal Veil Falls, Pitchfork Falls, the Welcome to Alaska sign, White Pass Summit, and Tormented Valley made it feel unique to Skagway and gave us a great mix of mountain views, photo stops, and Gold Rush history.
