This is a fun and relaxing 3-4 hour excursion at a great price. We found this tour on-line, not through the cruise, and were not disappointed. The small size made for more personal attention. The trail was beautiful, and our guide very knowledgeable and friendly. There are a lot of trail steps, up and down, and uneven ground, but it was just what we wanted. The float is very relaxing (though chilly on the glacier fed river). The staff is very laid back and we had a simple smoked salmon snack at the end. Since Skagway is a VERY small town, this excursion was a perfect way to spend 1/2 the day, by getting out into nature.
