Skagway Museum Tours and Tickets
If you’d like to learn more about Skagway’s gold rush days, step inside the Skagway Museum to browse its fine collection.
Artifacts, photographs, memorabilia and archival material bring the past alive, and sleds and gold-mining equipment reveal the harsh realities of life on the goldfields.
The museum also has a well-rounded collection of indigenous Alaskan artifacts, including baskets, beadwork and carvings.
The museum building itself is also worth noting. Built of granite with a tower and arched windows, it looks a little like a church and once served as a courthouse and jail, as well as a school and marshal’s office.

Gold Rush Boomtown: A Self-Guided Audio Tour of Skagway
Strikeout for gold on a journey back to the rough and seductive roots of the Klondike Gold Rush’s most famous boomtown. This tour will take you from the docks of present-day Skagway to the historic businesses and buildings that comprise this National Park town.
We’ll travel back in time to experience Skagway in its heyday when there were wooden boardwalks, ladies of the night calling from windows and gunslingers sidling up to the local bar. You’ll hear stories of the foolhardy stampeders, industrious native guides, quick-thinking ladies, wild west mobsters and desperate entrepreneurs who gave this stretch of Alaska’s coastits living legacy. After the tour, you’ll know a lot more about this quirky frontier town that gets up to one million visitors each summer.
This tour is a must for any curious mind looking to discover Skagway’s close connection to the land and entrepreneurial spirit. Join me on an insider’s guide to the Gateway to the Klondike.
