Our bus tour to Emerald Lake, Carcross and the Yukon, leaves your ship's dock at 8am and returns to Skagway between 3-4pm. This tour costs $79 each, payable in cash or check at the end of the tour. We have a 16 and 21 passenger bus, a 14 passenger van and a 6 passenger SUV available for your tour preference. It is best if you email Dave at dyeadave@msn.com to book your tour. You may also call him at: 907-209-5031 or 907-612-0825. It is best to call after 4pm, due to the fact that he is out on tours during the day. Our phone reservations cost $10 more than email reservations.

The 8 hr. morning train option: Train up: $81 and Bus down $79 7:30am-3:30pm

If your ship departs Skagway before 6pm, meet us at 7:30am at your ship's dock. We'll take you to the train station to purchase your morning train tickets, after we look up the pass to see if there is fog and you decide if you still want to go on the morning train. We will pick you up in Fraser two hours later, to continue on our way to the Yukon and Emerald Lake. We will stop several times for photos and once for lunch at Spirit Lake Lodge. Or, you may book the 8am-10am train from Skagway to Fraser ahead of time by calling: 907-983-2217

There is also a train that leaves Skagway at 12:30pm and arrives in Fraser at 2:15pm. If you only want to go to Fraser and not all the way to Emerald Lake, book this train ride and we can pick you up in Fraser for the bus tour on the way back to Skagway. It arrives in Skagway at about 4pm.

Join us at 8am for the bus tour to Emerald Lake, then continue to the Yukon, stopping for photos along the way and lunch at Spirit Lake Lodge, then we will get you back to Fraser at 2:30pm for the 2:45-4:30pm train ride back to Skagway. This is the best option for an all day tour, but your ship needs to depart at 6pm or later, to have time to board your ship.

Train tickets only sold out twice last summer, so your chances of that happening are small. If you'd like to definitely book the train, then call 907-983-2217 and reserve your train tickets, then let us know and we will make a note of that.

Many of you do, so here's the scoop. Dave is near retirement age, and is not able to continue giving tours seven days a week. He has hired two drivers for his 16 and 21 passenger buses, Debbie and Barry, to help lighten his load and rotate days off.

Barry has been doing tours in Skagway for about 10 years, and knows the history very well. This guy is a well traveled tour guide through and through. Although his sense of humor is a little drier than Dave's as he's very British! Google Barry Smedley and you can check out some videos and bios he made about his world travels.

Deb is the new girl in town. She's a cousin, who came for Becky's wedding; (check out beyondskagwaytours.com for info on Becky's custom SUV tours), decided she loved it, and stayed! Reviews for Deb have been outstanding; she's got a light sense of humor, is really laid back, fun, and enthusiastic about giving these tours. Deb has a fresh perspective and attitude! As you can tell, we love this Ohio gal!

You'll get Dave, Barry or Debbie, driving a 16 or 21 passenger bus, if you are a party of 1-21. Our most popular tour, ($79 each, payable in cash or check at the end of the tour; NO CREDIT CARDS), to Emerald Lake, from 8am to 3pm, stops several times for photos and once for lunch at a restaurant. You must bring your PASSPORT for this tour. Check out other tours on the tour menu.

If you have a party of 8-10, then you might enjoy a custom tour from Klondike Kevin (Becky's son... we try to keep it all in the family here!). He has a van and enjoys taking folks outdoors for picnic lunches or to an indoor place if the weather is bad. With Kevin, you can request picnic or restaurant lunch. He will customize your tour if you tell him of your interests.

So that's the break down of who you may be getting as a driver. If you get Dave, that's great! He's almost as good as the drivers he's hired!
