Cruises to Skagway
This town has a storied history steeped in the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 1880s and is full of culture and brimming with life. Few one-time boomtowns retain the flavour of the gold rush days like Skagway with parts of the city seemingly stuck in 1897. This gateway to the Klondike is preserved as a national historic park with its rustic boardwalk and frontier-style storefronts. Due to its geographic location, Skagway enjoys a drier climate compared to the rest of southeastern Alaska, with an average annual precipitation of only 22 inches.
