We had a fantastic hike and float with Bob, and his crew Katie, Jenna, and Charlie. Bob was an absolute wealth of knowledge and experience and made the trip very memorable! We can't wait to return to Skagway and explore more of the Chilkoot Trail and the Taiya River.

Fantastic. Loved that we were a small group and our guide Thomas was so personal. Wish we had done the chilkoot hike but was shut because of poor land conditions. Fully recommend this if you're looking for something authentic, peaceful and good value for money. Get in touch with them if you would like something more elaborate planned as well.

We had an absolutely FANTASTIC experience on our Hike & Float tour today. We started in Skagway at the cruise ship terminal where we were met by Mike - a super nice guy, and we had a great chat with him while we drove to our tour shuttle location. We then met the rest of the group with whom we d be spending the afternoon. Connor was our driver and hike leader. After beginning our drive to Dyea, Connor shared lots of interesting information with us about the areas of Skagway and Dyea and answered lots of questions from the group. After getting to Dyea (and applying bug spray - warning, lots of mosquitoes), we got underway on our hike. Connor was an excellent guide - SO knowledgeable about everything from the history of the Chilkoot Trail to types of trees and plants. We loved learning lots of new information from him including about watermelon berries (that actually taste like watermelon!). We had such a great time getting to chat and hike with him today. After getting to the end of the section of the trail we were hiking, we met up with our float guide, Owen, and we put on life jackets and traded our shoes for boots (both provided by the Skagway Float Tours team). The float down the Taiya River was wonderful and relaxing - a great way to wrap up the adventure. Owen was an awesome and experienced river guide who handled the raft masterfully. Other members of the team met us at the take out location and helped get all of the gear put away - thanks to Will and Wyatt for that. Afterward, Connor drove us back into Skagway and dropped us off back at our cruise ship. I honestly cannot say enough good things about this group and the tour that they led us on today. Cannot recommend more highly that anyone visiting Skagway book a tour with them, particularly the Hike & Float.

This float tour is about as real as a cruise excursion can get. The crew is nothing short of Amazing. Tomas (sp) was our guide and turned us on to the Klondike Bar on the ride back to the ship. Great beer on tap!

We had a wonderful time with Tomas today. From the moment we were met at the dock to the moment we were dropped off, this was enjoyable. Hike was fun and float was lovely. Tomas was knowledgeable and friendly and had an awesome vibe.Highly recommend.

We had a great time hiking and floating with our guide, Joe. He was so knowledgeable about the area and had experienced the outdoor areas on his own. We saw numerous bald eagles and seals. The hike was a bit like a stair machine, but Joe stopped and shared info often enough that it wasn't too strenuous. We then floated down the river (boots and life jackets provided) with Joe rowing. It was so peaceful and beautiful. A snack was waiting for us. Beautiful excursion.

Brooke was AMAZING for our Skagway float tour! There was 8 of us on her float, 5 of us are adult siblings. My brother is a live wire, adventurous 32 year old who made us laugh the entire time! She was a good sport and even joined into the fun of our family dynamics. By the end of the float we wanted to bring her home with us! She's an amazing navigator, well knowledge about the area and schooled my know it all goof ball of a brother in everything he thought he already knew! It was non stop laughs and she just went with it. What a great experience for us and her I hope! If you go, ask for Brooke! She's knowledgeable, a survivalist and just an all around great person to hang out with to learn about the area. My brother said it also helps that she's cute! Lol!

The tour guide was SUPER accommodating and had wealth of knowledge about the area. It was my friends and mine first time in Alaska and this tour provided us a great introduction to the beauty of Skayway. I highly recommended this tour. Special shout-out to our tour guide, John.

We took the Yukoner tour after talking with Tyler? at the office. He promised to get us a bag of ice for the leg my husband injured before we got to Skagway. True to his word, he got us the ice and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. This is one business I would highly recommend. Thanks for a great tour and for making us comfortable!

Great hike and float, our guide Sully was amazing. She made the whole experience fun not like a tourist hike. Very knowledgeable about the area, hike, and the Gold Rush information on the trail. Thank you Sully

Totally awesome raft float tour down the Tiaya River North of Skagway. Bob, our guide, was super knowledgeable and extremely safety conscience. A master of the river. A must do excursion!
