SKAG-GAY: THE OFFICIAL TOUR

SKAG-GAY: THE OFFICIAL TOUR
From USD $600.00
  • Product code: SKAGGAY
Add this little gem of a topic to any of our hourly tour options.  No topic is off limits.**  You are among family with Alaska Pride Tours.  Your Alaskan-born tour guide will give you the inside scoop on what it is like come Out and stay Out in a small Alaskan town, and she will share stories from the community.   You will be suprised just how integrated the gay and lesbian life is in small-town Skagway.  Where else but Skagway would you find an Out gay couple from Mississippi with a cafe or an Out member of the city assemby and no one cared one way or the other?  Skag-gay Alaska! 
Imagine if there were 100,000 people that left for the stampede and if only 100 or so were women...well, you can figure out the rest (it's probably like what happens in Utah when one guy hogs all the women).  So far there's not been much written about historic Skag-Gay or the Klondyke but there's plenty of modern evolution and history being made each year.  The SKAG-GAY tour was the first tour dedicated to gay life in Alaska and was sold on board Holland America when the Oliva Travel group was in town in 2010 and again in 2012.
Yay for Skag-gay!  Ho for Klondykes!!
Group rate of $150 per hour for up to 6 people.  4 hour minimum.

**(actually, your guide refuses to discuss Sarah Palin-- if you want to talk about her then she will demand cash up front-- probably $100 cash, at least)
