I did the 6 hour shuttle tour to the Sled Dog Camp aka Caribou Crossing which includes petting puppies, other farm animals, a BBQ chicken lunch for $104.00. (WAY better than the train ride, my fellow cruise friends did not enjoy that) For $45 at the camp I paid for a 15 minute ride being pulled by the sled dogs and interact with the mushers. It was great for me and my family who did not want to do that portion of the trip. Brian, Bryan (sp?) was GREAT! He told us all about Skagway, the inhabitants, daily life in the dark winters, their education system, the small town feel and just made me love Skagway more than all the other stops in Alaska. On the drive up he constantly stopped to allow us to take gorgeous photos. We were lucky to have CLEAR skies and saw mountains, mirror lake, the 1 side suspension bridge, his self named proposal rock, and he would also give us tons of stories about his past trips, jokes about going through Customs, and educational things like why the pine tree's there are so tiny! I loved all the things I learned and saw. We stopped by a camp and saw bear markings on trees and I skipped a rock and touched the icy waters of... lets call it Touchy lake! I can't spell it there either. If you are lucky, and have time, you can also stop by Emerald Lake at the end of the trip. Really LOVED this tour line and the prices were $20-50 cheaper than the cruises and I felt the passion he has for his job and this town. A++++++++

We had a fantastic trip. Brian was our tour guide, he was very informative and funny and made the trip exciting The trip itself had fantastic scenery. The dog sledding was a fantastic experience and the talk after the sledding by the musher was very interesting. This is trip well worth doing, the 6 hours went quick and there was still time to look around Skagway after.
