About us

Embark on an extraordinary adventure with Alaska Snowbird Tours, where each tour is more than just a journey through the stunning landscapes of Skagway—it's a personal odyssey born from a transformative experience. Founded by a passionate guide who transitioned from a conventional career path to the captivating allure of Skagway, Alaska Snowbird Tours offers a unique perspective shaped by fresh eyes and deep insights gained over years spent in the region.

In the founder, Marissa's own words "Being a child of the 90s I was told to get good grades, go to college and everything will work out just fine. After turning 27 I had done just that, but there was one issue; it was not working out fine. I had worked at many jobs and even been fired from a few. Yet, I never found one that I enjoyed. I thought there was something wrong with me! I came up to Skagway on a serendipitous chance to try out being a tour guide... It was love on first tour. After working for 3 different companies over seven years I decided that there was no better job for me. While I was intimidated, I knew there was no other option but to open my own company. Skagway has completely changed my life for the better. Come along with me to get a tour like no other. With someone who still sees the area through fresh eyes and can give deep insights from years of being in the area. "

What we'll do

This incredible scenic drive is always an option even when many things are closed down or not yet open for the season. It is my pleasure to offer a beautiful tour at the extremes of the season. The early spring will likely have snow in sections of this drive and the late season will have gorgeous fall colors!

Once we have picked everyone up from our central meeting point, we will tour through the historic district in Skagway. Then we will make our way out of town up the summit pass. At the top of the summit, we will reach British Columbia, Canada. Then we will tour through a weather-worn dwarfed forest called the Tormented Valley. Here we will take in the scenery and enjoy this strange, but beautiful landscape.

After the Tormented Valley, we will come to Boreal Forest and the lakes region of the tour. Through these two regions, we can stop, take pictures, and take in the changing scenery as we drive deeper into Canada.

From here we will continue to the border of British Columbia and the Yukon and touch into a Canadian Territory that many never see. After this point, we will travel back on the same beautiful highway and return to Skagway where you can be dropped off in town.
