Skagway Alaska White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad Tour
This video showcases in-depth the White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad in Skagway, Alaska. This is definitely the top attraction in Skagway and worth every dime of the ticket price. The railroad links the port of Skagway with Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory. The railroad was constructed in 1898 during the legendary Klondike Gold Rush as transportation to and from the goldfields. From the late 1980's until now the railroad has been used as a tourist draw. If you like this Skagway, Alaska White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad video then make sure to give it a thumbs up!
Skagway Hike and Float | Alaska Cruise Excursion
On our Alaska cruise in Skagway, Alaska we decided to do a hike and float tour excursion with Skagway Shore Tours. The hike on the Chilkoot Trail with a raft float down the Taiya River was the perfect way to explore nature in this beautiful Alaskan town.
We hiked two miles up (and we do mean UP) the Chilkoot Trail. The elevation was so steep in a few place they have added steps to help tourists like us make it through. Can you believe men used to do this trail with tons of gear strapped to their back in order to cross to the gold rich areas of the Yukon? It was crazy! The float down the river after the hike was the perfect recovery while watching beautiful scenery pass by.
Thanks for watching!

Ocean Raft Wildlife Adventure. Skagway, Alaska. Part 1
This is just few mins of the second half of the boat ride. The first half was much faster and wilder. It was much more fun than we were expecting. It's not your normal slow paced wildlife viewing ride. You get into full body suits that are warm and act as your flotation too. The boat has 500 hp. The captain is definitely an adrenaline junky. He gets pretty close to some cliffs at high speed. The first time you'll about wet your pants.
Before I starting filming, we saw several seals. We got within about 20 ft of several of them. They are so use to the boat, some of them didn't even look up.
We stopped right below an eagles nest. There were 2 of them there.
We really enjoyed this tour and would definitely recommend it.
