If you've always wanted to answer the "Call of the Wild" be sure to
explore the country that was Jack London's inspiration—the Yukon. It's the
wild, untamed land of the Klondike Gold Rush and the thousands of rugged
stampeders who came to seek their fortune during the 1890's. Many of them
stayed on to build the rough-and-tumble towns of Dawson City, Eagle and Tok
where the wilderness still calls to many a wanderer. Day 1: Juneau After your arrival, we'll transfer you to your downtown hotel. The rest
of the day is yours to explore Alaska's capital city. Day 2: Juneau - Skagway Transfer to the airport for your breathtaking flight to Skagway, the
gateway to the Klondike. Upon arrival, you'll enjoy a light-hearted history
lesson as we take you on a sightseeing tour of this picturesque town. Day 3: Skagway - Whitehorse This morning board the parlor cars of the White Pass & Yukon Route
railway. You'll climb the same rugged trail that thousands of gold seekers
used during the gold rush of 1898. Upon arrival in Fraser, British Columbia,
you'll board your deluxe motor coach for the conclusion of your journey to
the capital of the Yukon Territory, Whitehorse. This evening, enjoy the
hilarious Frantic Follies show before turning in. Day 4: Whitehorse Enjoy this day at leisure in the Yukon Province's capitol city or embark

the nearby gold fields. Once known as the "Paris of the North", Dawson is a
living museum filled with nostalgia. Townsfolk wear costumes and guide tours
of the beautifully restored historic buildings that line the unpaved
streets. A visit to the gold fields and Gold Dredge No. 4 gives you a chance
to pan for gold just like the sourdoughs did in days gone by. And visit to
Diamond Tooth Gertie's makes your visit complete. Day 7: Dawson City - Tok This morning board Gray Line of Alaska's exclusive river cruiser, the
mv Yukon Queen II for your journey
