Skagway's Gold Rush Scooter Tour
Join us for a fun-paced joy-ride through Skagway’s history. Smell the ocean breeze and enjoy the wind in your hair as you experience some of Alaska’s most pristine beauty. On this spectacular 19 mile ride through Skagway - following a stunning ocean road along the Taiya Inlet, you will have plenty of opportunity to take some beautiful photos and possibly even see some wildlife.
Majestic mountains rise abruptly on either side of Skagway, a town situated in a narrow glaciated valley at the head of the Taiya Inlet in Alaska. The surrounding wilderness is home to Moose, Bear, Wolves, Fox, Mountain Goats, Bald Eagles and Golden Eagles. Skagway offers both inspirational and recreational opportunities that you wont want to miss out on. Skagway is truly larger than life, and is known for being one of the most beautiful places in the world.
During the Summer months both locals and visitors enjoy getting outdoors and exploring on our scooters. A super exciting, easy to drive scooter will add to your Alaskan experience like nothing else. We make sure to give everyone a free hands on riding lesson before each tour. It is the perfect opportunity to try something exciting if you’ve never done it before and to give your inner child a chance to come out and play.
Our Scooter tour consists of a 19 mile round trip, stopping at all of Skagway’s scenic overlooks and historic sites, including Lower Reid Falls, the Gold Rush Cemetery and the head of the historic Chilkoot Trail.
