5 Skagway, Alaska traveler questions & answers
A: We went last year, the answer was "not at all". Only a slight delay since we actually docked and then tendered around to clear the closed off area. Other ships were docked right next to the town.

A: Our Skagway stop was cancelled along with our excursion due to damage to the dock from a landslide. We are stopping at Icy Strait Point instead. Our cruise is May 22.

A: The area where the rockslides occur only affects the one dock, so this pretty much just blocks the ability for two ships to dock.

A: You can book the Summit route direct with the railroad. Depending on which day you are in port you may be able to use 2 for 1 coupon from Alaska Tour Saver. Would save roughly $100 if it works for you, but is very limited.

A: Check with your cruise line as they may have a similar excursion that doesn’t cross the Canadian border.

A: you should be able to do the train portion? We have the train round trip booked for our cruise. It's only the crossing into Canada that is the issue. it explains it on the trains website.

A: Really depends on what you like to do and see. Skagway is wonderful town full of history and almost anything you can think of to do. if looking for adventure and nature check out excursions in Haines. Though there are some in Skagway. A hike up t... he Chilkoot trail or up to lower and upper Ried falls is equally beautiful. (unlikely able to do both in same day. for the train, the summit is nice but the Bennet Scenic is better and takes you to places you can only get to by train or on foot. You can rent a car and drive up to Canada or just stroll around downtown. check out the national park website for other things to see and do.See More

A: Go into Red Onion. Give Barman lots of dollars, in return he gives you lots of Lager. Continue until you run out of money or you fall down. You can always watch the scenery on YouTube. 🤣🤣🤣

A: We love to rent a jeep. The highway to the Yukon is one of the most beautiful drives. At Emerald Lake turn around and come back to Skagway. They pack a lunch for you and we had plenty of time to explore Skagway.Take your passport to enter Canada!
