jkhage Posted April 29, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 29, 2023 We are a family of 4 sailing RCCL Quantum of the Seas to Alaska and are taking a 4hr 30 min. excursion on the White Pass Railroad and Yukon Suspension Bridge. I do not believe they have food on the train and I think we take a bus back. The excursion starts at 7:50am. How does someone go about getting lunch or snacks when doing this excursion. I don't think we are permitted to take food off the ship. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquahound Posted April 29, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I've done the railroad a few times. We just eat a hearty breakfast and grab a few snacks to take with us in our backpacks. They do serve water on the train. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfilpus Posted April 29, 2023 #3 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Some White Pass/Yukon train/bus excursions include lunch in Carcross, Yukon. We did bus up, lunch in Carcross, train down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree ... unless it specifically states a meal or break for snacks, I bring something along. It's miserable trying to sightsee from a 'luxury motor coach' when you're hungry! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great if it did because I love that little town. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are on a bus tour you stop at a tourist trap called caribou crossing. Bbq chicken thigh, potato, cole slaw, and doughnuts for lunch, really high prices on drinks, a museum of stuffed animals, a sled dog demo, gold panning, and a gift shop. I'm not a fan, but lots of people love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted April 30, 2023 #8 Share Posted April 30, 2023 You can take packaged food off of the ship. I would buy some granola bars/energy bars and throw them in a back pack. Wake up early and eat breakfast on the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
