THE PICNIC OPTION
Choose any hourly tour and add a picnic lunch to the day. We will
find a nice spot to stop and take in the view. Folding camp chairs
and table will add to the comfort of this stop. Pack your own lunch
or we will have one ready for you. Beer, champagne or wine may be brought to the picnic experience. Most quantities will not be subject to Canadian duties at the border (if so it could double the expense
of alcohol so don't go crazy!). If you do amp it up, Canadian Customs stated that the PROcess is quite fast
and would not cause much delay at the border but the delay at customs
can vary due to traffic and other unknown elements.
Stopping at the grocery store, liquor store or any restaurant before hitting the road in Skagway would be included in total touring time and could shorten distance traveled. Food options are available in the Carcross area which would require at least 6 hours to take advantage of the picnic option without feeling rushed or risking choking from eating so fast. Relax. Chew.
