Yukon Discovery Tour

Yukon Discovery Tour -- A favorite among those seeking a more complete Gold Rush experience, this tour is a 6-hour adventure into the Yukon Territory! Experience the beauty of the Klondike Highway as we drive north, paralleling much of the original White Pass Trail to the summit and beyond.

View icy lakes, glaciers and magnificent waterfalls. Stand on the shores of Lake Bennett, take in the world's smallest desert, view turn-of-the-century mines, shop for souvenirs, and watch for wildlife. This tour is our most complete, with sights and memories you'll never forget. Fun for all ages. Included is the North's premier educational wildlife gallery, featuring over 100 Yukon and ice age mammals on display, along with the world's largest mounted polar bear. Lunch is a delicious barbecue chicken dinner (vegetarian alternative available).

You'll also visit the sled dog camp, where you can pet the sled dogs, play with the puppies, and hear the adventures of winter dog sledding in the Yukon!

US-Canada Border Crossing Information
~Canada will not allow a U.S. citizen into the country who does not have the proper documentation to return home. Everyone from every country arriving in Canada or the USA by air, land or sea now needs a passport or equivalent travel document. Equivalent travel documents include:
1. NEXUS CARD: A partnership between the Canada and U.S. border services that pre-approves entry for travelers by land, sea or air between Canada and U.S. An added benefit is designated and faster lanes at border crossings and airports. Application process involves interview and fingerprinting. Both U.S. and Canadian citizens apply through U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
2. U.S. PASSPORT CARD: This U.S. Department of State-issued ID is valid for entry into Canada by land or sea, though not valid for international air travel.
3. ENHANCED DRIVER'S LICENSE (EDL): EDLs indicate both citizenship and identity and are valid for entry into Canada by land or sea, though not valid for international air travel. As of January 2009, EDLs were only available in Washington and New York states, but were planned for Vermont as well. See individual state licensing departments for more info.
4. FAST/EXPRES CARD: This U.S. Customs and Border Protection program pre-approves commercial truck drivers for travel between the U.S. and Canada.

Children ages 18 and under are required to present proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate - passports, of course, are also acceptable.
~If one parent is traveling with a minor child without the other parent, they must also have a notarized letter from the absent parent stating approval for the one parent to travel across the US-Canada border with the child.
