Ghosts & Goodtime Girls: Historical Walking Tour

Ghosts & Goodtime Girls: Historical Walking Tour
Skagway, Alaska

Join a Red Onion madam on a guided walking tour of Skagway's historic streets and back alleys. Your tour finishes at the Red Onion Saloon with a champagne toast in the restored and celebrated Brothel Museum. A parent or legal guardian must accompany guests under 21 years old.

Walk back in time through the streets and small alleys of Skagway, where women of the evening brushed shoulders with notorious characters such as Soapy Smith and Skookum Jim. Stories of Klondike Kate, Oregon Mare, Pea Hull Annie and Diamond Lil depict the adventurous, lusty, and sometimes tragic lives of thousands of women who stampeded north. Led by a sumptuously dressed "madam" of the Red Onion Saloon your tour will visit several cribs and districts, culminating with a stop at the restored Brothel Museum, located above the world famous Red Onion Saloon. Here, join a champagne toast and explore the halls and bedrooms of this celebrated brothel, observing original relics and images of the "ladies" who worked there. And, if you are lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the resident ghost, Lydia!

Minimum age to participate is 16 years old. A parent or legal guardian must accompany participants under the age of 21 years old.
