EACH TOUR IS PERSONALIZED TO YOUR GROUP. With all private tour options each tour is unique and tailored to your group's pace and interests. Your driver will do her best to keep you away from the crowds and to find pull outs with fewer buses and cars so you can savor a herd-free experience.
SEARCH FOR WILDLIFE WITH A TRUE LOCAL. The deeper you drive into the interior, the greater the opportunity to spot wildlife. Traveling in a smaller vehicle allows for stops in places the big buses cannot, as well as tight u-turns to check out wildlife. As a true local, your guide is an excellent spotter of wildlife as she knows the area like the back of her hand, which means she doesn't get fooled by that stump or culvert that looks like a bear; that happened ages ago. Now, she can focus on real wildlife sightings like a pro.

CHOOSE YOUR DEPARTURE TIME
Skagway Private Tours can help you plan your day to take advantage of windows of less traffic and avoidable delays. Early is best! Avoid the rush hour of large buses by choosing a departure time of 7:30 am. 8:30 is a major excursion departure time and the road can become quite busy--leaving closer to 8:30 could cost 45minutes of driving and stopping time due to road traffic and customs delays. Your driver keeps in mind outside elements that can easily be avoided to ensure more time at stops. Monday-Friday most tours depart at 7:30. Saturday/Sunday you may choose 7:30 or 8 am for morning departures. FEEL FREE TO EMAIL WITH SPECIAL TIME REQUESTS.

SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESS
By choosing to support a LOCAL business, you are contributing to the ability of your driver to live and thrive in the land she loves. Whether or not you choose Skagway Private Tours as your excursion option while in Skagway, please choose from one of Skagway's local independent operators while in our port. On-board Alaskan shore excursion purchases enrich the coffers of large cruise line corporations leaving only a small percentage in the hands of local operators. Independent tour purchases keep the bulk of the money flowing in the local community and help boost the economy of grateful Alaskans, enabling them to make a living in a place with limited opportunities. If Skagway Private Tours is booked on the day you request, we will provide you with contact information for other independent operators here in Skagway; we are all friends and support each other's success. You too can support TEAM SKAGWAY. Thank you for thinking outside of the box and supporting local Alaskan entrepreneurs.
