southwardbound Posted May 16, 2007 #1 Share Posted May 16, 2007 We have the option to rent a car to Carcross in the end of August or take the Yukon Discovery Tour. Any recommendations? Pros and cons? We would appreciate your experience. Thanks:) We will be in Skagway from 7am to 8:30pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARK6 Posted May 16, 2007 #2 Share Posted May 16, 2007 This will be my first trip to Alaska, but we're doing the Carcross/Yukon rail and bus Chilkook excursion. I'm sure by renting a car, you'll have more options on what & how long you stay at different areas; and with a group, it would be less expensive. But for our 5 day land portion of the Alaskan trip, I'll be doing all the driving; and we will be in a go go go mode. And because we will be in a rental for Denali, Anchorage, & Seward, we will miss the Alaskan Rail experience. So the train/bus Chilkook tour in Skagway will be our train adventure for Alaska; plus it'll give me one extra day to relax and let someone else do the driving. Either way, it looks to be one of the MANY highlights of your trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
