22CeeBeeNC22 Posted July 20 #1 Share Posted July 20 We will be doing an August cruise with some advance land exploration that will take us from ANC to Denali aboard the Star Train and then back again. Is the Skagway White Pass Railway a totally different experience or much the same scenery that we will see prior to the cruise? Yes, I understand they are two different locales. Just trying to decide what we should do in Skagway and I hear the White Pass Railway is the main draw. Thanks for any advice and sharing your experiences.

Rare Coral Posted July 20 #2 Share Posted July 20 Completely different experience. The history of the White Pass train is worth it. I actually recommend the train/van combo through Chilkoot Tours. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted July 20 #3 Share Posted July 20 @22CeeBeeNC22: The 2 train trips are very different experiences. I would also do both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeW Posted July 24 #6 Share Posted July 24 Note that the White Pass railcars are restored antiques. Narrow wood seats not particularly comfortable on the incline. Historic. Have done it a couple of times but now prefer Dyea Dave tour to Emerald Lake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
