YouTube Video Description↓

Our second port stop of this amazing Alaskan cruise is Skagway. First, we venture to the Klondike Gold Fields to pan for gold. Do we strike it rich? Next, we board a train car and take a ride on the White Pass Railway taking in the incredible scenic views of mountains, cliffs, and waterfalls. We can't stop in Skagway and not visit Klondike Doughboy to eat the most delicious fry bread and explore the cutest little town. And finally, we put the pedal to the metal ad we drive the go karts on the top deck of the Norwegian Encore. 00:00 Intro 01:31 Arrival in Skagway 05:24 Gold Panning 09:03 White Pass Railway 15:37 Klondike Doughboy 19:36 Encore Speedway 22:58 Dinner at The Haven Restaurant 23:28 Leaving Skagway 25:17 Family Chat
