Creator's Key Takeaways
Today we're going to head down to breakfast in a little bit, get off the ship and meet our tour at about 9:30 to drive into the Yukon to the sled dog camp.
I wanted to recap our day in Skagway because it was the most amazing day of this cruise so far.
And the adventure we had today was the best of any short excursion I've ever taken from a cruise.
Just being surrounded by the beautiful nature of the Yukon and getting to interact with these dogs was just it was just something that I think we'll remember for a long time.

Our cruise stop in Skagway, Alaska, was the best day of our Alaska cruise aboard Discovery Princess! Join my family as we travel the incredibly scenic Klondike Highway to cross into the Yukon Territory, Canada. Watch as we spend the morning at an Iditarod dogsledding camp, holding puppies and learning about dogsledding. We continued through the Yukon to visit multiple picturesque stops including Tagish Lake and even played in the snow! If you are interested in this tour for your Alaska visit, it's called the Yukon Husky Puppy Play Time and Summit Tour through Skagway Tours. #discoveryprincess #princesscruiseship #cruisevlog #cruisetravel #skagway #alaskacruise #alaska #cruisetour #yukon #dogsledding Print my Alaska Cruise Packing List here: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/6483c643603fb25235d2e0dd/t/666e226303aea532cbcfe3b1/1718493796661/Alaska+Cruise+Packing+List.pdf Related Videos: https://youtu.be/-56q_upw7cs https://youtu.be/VqTcJYHP7Bs https://youtu.be/v6OmknrsCGs https://youtu.be/Jv67DEg7Ho8 https://youtu.be/mY-bGFNnvKQ https://youtu.be/oUfwzB6erSg https://youtu.be/_jKm7FNtHZo https://youtu.be/trJJaotugEQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qBRtHcvrZQ&list=PLx1wYnv2V-MCHha2Y92U5-BDcIrxL8ZPA Alaska Cruise Essentials: (as an Amazon Affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases) Princess Ocean Medallion watch adapter: https://amzn.to/42W8rSy Princess Medallion Sport Band Accessory: https://amzn.to/435F3uh Princess Cruises luggage tags: https://amzn.to/4cXfO0E MusicCozy bluetooth sleep headphones: https://amzn.to/4cShibC Jbu water-resistant boots: https://amzn.to/3GpHwXy White beanie with pompom: https://amzn.to/3RGqIhE Hot Feet insulated socks: https://amzn.to/4ezB7pq Kids' Insulated socks: https://amzn.to/3yTAOFJ Hurley rain poncho: https://amzn.to/4cyYs8G Spanx leggings: https://amzn.to/3EHVWls Waterproof backpack: https://amzn.to/3LB9xed Bonine Non-Drowsy Chewable for Motion Sickness: https://amzn.to/3ZgBPTf Band-Aid Blister Packs: https://amzn.to/3AUNYmF Apple Airtags: https://amzn.to/44qW2Xt Samsonite Evolve set: https://amzn.to/496cuhR Travel Duffel Weekender Bag: https://amzn.to/4goYB0L Memory Foam Airplane Foot Hammock: https://amzn.to/3YZVDbO Passport Holder RFID Blocking: https://amzn.to/4i9OsX6 Bagsmart Travel Makeup Bag: https://amzn.to/4fH93k0 Pop up hamper: https://amzn.to/3EzdXT3 Large Hanging Toiletry Bag: https://amzn.to/3Vbl1dH Roll-up Hanging Tech Bag: https://amzn.to/3VblkFn Magnetic heavy duty hooks: https://amzn.to/3zK2tcn Join my cruise newsletter and get my FREE Travel Savings packet with printable savings tracker and savings challenge at: https://thebargainchasingtourist.kit.com/6e9826c616 0:00 Intro 0:20 Good morning, Skagway 1:34 Getting off the ship 2:05 Klondike Highway 2:20 Crossing into Yukon Territory, Canada 2:39 The Iditarod Musher Camp 3:03 Holding sled dog puppies 3:48 Iditarod Mushers 4:58 Meeting the sled dogs 5:29 Holding sleeping puppies 5:50 Driving through the Yukon 5:54 Tagish Lake 6:08 Desolation Valley 6:44 Crossing back into Alaska 6:47 Dinner in the Juneau Dining Room 7:42 Tour review 8:38 High winds at sea 9:01 Comparing tour to the White Pass Railway 9:24 Skagway Tours 9:38 Summing up the afternoon 10:05 Becoming a Skagway Junior Ranger 11:04 Thanks for watching!
