This DIY Yukon Self-Drive Tour starts in Skagway, where participants receive a private rental vehicle equipped with a GPS-coordinated iPad containing a fully narrated audio guide and an Alaska Murrays guide binder. The tour allows up to 10 hours of driving at your own pace, with no fixed schedule or group constraints. The route begins with a drive through historic Skagway, where travelers can stop for about 30 minutes to explore shops, museums, or have a snack. From there, the drive continues through the White Pass area, featuring waterfalls, overlooks, and glacially carved valleys. Crossing into Canada, the Klondike Highway offers opportunities to see wildlife, lakes, rivers, and mountain views during approximately four hours of travel. The suggested itinerary includes a one-hour stop in the village of Carcross on the shores of Lake Bennett, where visitors can have coffee or shop at Carcross Commons. Next is a 30-minute visit to the nearby Carcross Desert dunes, suitable for walking and stretching legs. The turnaround point is Emerald Lake, about 10 miles beyond Carcross, where a 15-minute stop allows viewing of the green lake surrounded by mountains. The rental includes all taxes, fees, and handling charges but excludes food, drinks, lunch (available on request), and fuel surcharges. Each Jeep Wrangler seats up to five people. Drivers must have a valid license and provide proof of US or Canadian auto insurance covering rental vehicles; if unavailable, insurance can be purchased for an additional fee. The tour operates in all weather conditions, so appropriate clothing is recommended. Passports, cameras, and binoculars are suggested for the journey.
