Walking Tour of Skagway A Good Bet

March 30th, 2008 | Comments Off | Posted in Skagway, alaska cruise tours, alaska cruises
THE Goodtime Girls Walking Tour on a Princess cruise of Alaska takes you back to the Gold Rush days, when prospectors stopped off in town to get lucky with the ladies. Nowadays, the tour of Skagway promises “madams”in lavish costumes to escort you through the streets and alleys before ending up at the Red Onion Saloon, once a real-life brothel but now a thoroughly respectable pub, restaurant and museum. Other new excursions on Princess cruises this summer in Alaska include a day’s crab fishing in the Bering Sea, glass blowing in Skagway and a five-course dining day in a private club in Ketchikan, where gourmets can munch their way through a meal of locally-caught seafood.
