    My family of eight, consisting of three generations, had an amazing experience with Beyond Skagway. We had Ed as our driver/ tour guide and he was fantastic. The views and scenery were incredible and breathtaking. We drove into Canada and stopped at the Yukon suspension bridge, had lunch at Carcross, saw Emerald Lake, went to a dog sled camp and stopped several times to just admire the beauty all around us. We also saw a bear and two moose. I can’t recommend this tour enough.
