Step back in time and soak in Skagway's colorful beginnings and scenic views! Your thrilling half-day of Gold Rush history begins with a drive through historic Skagway, which played a key role in the Klondike Gold Rush of 1897-1898. Sense the excitement and nostalgia around every corner as you drive to Gold Rush Cemetery for the recounting of the deeds done by the colorful characters of the city's early days. Then continue on with a scenic drive up the Klondike Highway, paralleling the White Pass & Yukon Route railroad. Your guide will regale you with stories of stampeders as you trace their footsteps along the Denver Valley and Dead Horse Gulch. Visit The Lookout, a photographer's delight offering a panoramic view of the Skagway Valley, glacier-clad mountains, Lynn Canal and your cruise ship. Your last destination is The Days of '98 Show, the longest-running production in Alaska that truly brings Skagway's history to life. You're sure to enjoy it all-singing and dancing, love and rejection, comedy and drama. Return to port or remain in town to explore independently.
