We decided to use Chilkoot Charters and Tours for our day trip from Skagway and were very glad we did. Reservations were easy, and both Larry and Cathy answered all the questions we had to help determine which of their many tours would be best for us. Their tours were considerably less expensive than those offered by the ship and... More

Pros: The shuttle portion was alright Cons: Every aspect of the train ride, very very boring Recommend?: No Tips: Bring a snack if possible. There isn’t much time to stock up before you get on the train and the options in the little shop are limited and over priced. If you’re from a warm climate and not used to cold,... More

We visited Skagway, AK in August and chartered Chilkoot Charters and Tours to take us into the Yukon. This turned out to be a pleasant and informative mid-sized tour with plenty of photo opportunities along the way. Our tour guide, James, definitely added a special touch to the tour, making it one to remember. James is a great storyteller. The... More

We booked the Yukon Rail & Bus Excursion With 15-Minute Dogcart Ride through Chilkoot Charters ahead of our stop there. When we made our reservation, there was a small issue that arose.

The White Pass and Yukon Rail Excursion was well worth the price. We (my wife and myself) were warmly greeted at the ship dock about 1/2 hour before our scheduled departure time by our driver/guide Terrell. He was gracious and courteous in checking our documents and asked our patience while we awaited others on the tour (18 in all). We... More

Our excursion with Chilkoot Charters was excellent. From both drivers to the personal delivery to the train station, to stops for scenery and wildlife, to a good lunch and great dog cart ride we had a wonderful time. Our driver was especially helpful.

Went to Skagway with wife & in-laws on Princess Cruise and had THE best time on train through mountain pass in to Frasier, BC Canada and to the tip of the Yukon. The little bus was a great way to chat with driver/James and others on the tour- great job stopping on road for bears, waterfalls, and other scenery that... More

Based on all of the tour options we did the bus up and back and included the husky mush ride- overall for about a 7 hr tour it was only $128 including the husky ride. We were on the Carnival Spirit cruise and booked this independently. It was well worth it. We decided not to do the train- for a... More
