We absolutely loved our time today on this tour with Zack, he is such a great guy. Very informative, easy going & very safe. The bikes were excellent. Highly recommend this for all ages & all abilities. Ps Zack, unfortunately we weren't fussed on the Root Beer lol
Thank you so much for riding with us! We are so glad you enjoyed your time with Zaq! We think he is pretty special!
Fun to bike through the town with a local. Lots to see and hear about. Great trip to waterfalls. And the scenic town view is great.
Thank you so much for riding with us! We are so glad you enjoyed your day in Skagway!
We had a great time getting to see places we would not have been able to find on our own. Our 12 year old said this was the most exciting part of our trip. He loved being able to use the e bikes to get to the top of the hills. Zac was able to share a lot of the history and kept us engaged.
Thank you so much for sharing with us! We are so glad that your family enjoyed their tour with Zaq!
What a great business. Thorough, knowledgeable and kind.. Best trip !!
Thank YOU so much! I appreciate your kind words! So glad you enjoyed it!
The downhill portion can be a little scary if you have no bike experience. But would still highly recommend. Our guide, Zack was great
Thank you so much for riding with us! We agree that Zaq is GREAT! We appreciate your feedback!
Zach was wonderful —very informative, friendly, and always put safety first. The tour of Skagway and panning for gold, plus the ride to the cemetery and hike to the falls were fun. It was great to be on a bike, stretch our legs and have an outing off the ship.
Thank you so much for your feedback! We are so glad that Zaq is part of our team! We are glad you enjoyed your day with us!
Great local company and Zach led us on tour of the city with fun and informative commentary. We also loved meeting the company mascots, Willow and Willie Mac! Their recommendation for lunch, Woadie’s, was also awesome.
Thank you so much for riding with us! We are so glad you enjoyed your day in Skagway! Thanks for loving on the pups!
Zaquery was an excellent tour guide. My wife and I had an amazing time. It was a perfect balance of riding and walking. Zaquery took lots of scenic photos of us in many breathtaking spots. Highly recommend. Way cooler than the train.
Thank you so much for spending your day with us! We are thrilled that you enjoyed your day with Zaq! We think he is pretty special! Hope you enjoy the memories that were made!
Guide awesome and very knowledgeable. First half boring second half OK. Gold panning stages and cemetery/falls visit a little to long.
Thank you so much for your feedback, Rick. We are sorry that you felt that the tour was a little boring. Our guides work really hard to make sure our guests have an enjoyable visit to Skagway. We will take your feedback into account!
It was amazing. Zach our wonderful tour guide was fabulous with all his knowledge of flora and fauna. He took us around town explaining all there is to see in Skagway. He also took us to the Gold Rush Cemetery, which we were able to walk around in and then a hike up to the Reid falls which was absolutely stunning. The weather was cold, raining, windy and miserable, but had the experience of a Lifetime. Thank you Klondike E-Bikes!!!
We are so glad to hear you braved the Alaska weather and had a great experience! Zaq is one of the BEST! Thank you for spending the day with Klondike Electric Bikes!
