11 reviews

Excursion Overview

The triple adventure combo tour begins with a 20-minute narrated van ride to the historic site of Dyea. Where once there was a famous goldrush town of 10,000 prospectors, now nature has reclaimed the land. Your guide fits you to a bike and escorts you for five miles of easy pedaling on flat dirt roads with stops at historic and scenic sites. Search for eagles and view colorful wildflowers while enjoying the beautiful mountain vistas as you pedal along.

At the conclusion of the bike segment you meet your guide for the two mile hike on the historic Chilkoot Trail. The first mile is up and down over uneven terrain with the second mile being relatively flat. You stop often to learn about the area, take photos, and quench your thirst. The hike ends at the bank of the Taiya River where the rafting segment of your adventure begins.

You are outfitted with rubber boots and a life jacket. The river has no whitewater. This relaxing float is the grand finale of your amazing outdoor experience. Watch for bald eagles diving for fish as you float along, or glimpse a river otter sliding off the bank. At the conclusion of the raft trip you are transferred by van back to Skagway.

Included: Bicycle use, helmet (required), and rain gear (if necessary), all float gear including rubber boots. Water and a classic smoked salmon snack will also be provided.

This was a great adventure. The hike was our favorite part. Brooke's knowledge of the Alaskan landscape and horticulture was amazing. We recommend this excursion to all.

This was a great day! The history and geology lesson was a bonus on top of three fun activities.

This excursion was probably the best thing we did on our week long cruise. The bike ride was fantastic, and the hike and raft ride were also great. Our guides were fantastic and so dedicated and knowledgable. Patrick led the bike tour and Brooke led the hike and float. Highly recommend, worth the money and the time...so glad we did this despite being tired from the rest of the trip!
