Not sure how I missed it before. Perhaps it's new?? We're considering. Wonder if you can take it from the docks?? I've got a not into the tour company I'm on Princess and Princess does not show a zipline excursion in Skagway. Could you please provide contact information for me to contact the operator directly? Oh good. It's about time they corrected the price on Alaska zipline tours.

I'm taking a NCL cruise in September, thanks for sharing the information. I was just on the NCL site, and didn't see this excursion for Skagway, hmmm I am in Los Angeles, it is pm. Nothing listed for ziplining in Skagway. I also just checked the website for Alaska Mountain Guides. No luck there. Any more information would be very helpful. We are taking a Princess cruise and would like to do the zipline in skagway -- can you give me the contact info for the company you used - it sounds perfect.
