Icy Strait Point was a replacement for Skagway. We took the gondola to the top
of Sky Peak, which was a scary ride, and pointless when we reached the top. There’s nothing there but a shop or two and the weather was foggy and drizzly.
So there were no sights to be seen. ...
It’s just not real. It’s built by the cruise ships and you can tell. All the buildings looms the same. It’s fake and made to look authentic and every other port you don’t feel tricked like that. It’s a money maker plain and simple. ...
I didn’t choose this port. It was one of the ports on the cruise . Nothing to do except a lot of walking. A waste of time in our opinion. Would rather have more time at Ketchikan. ...
Honestly, could have skipped this port and would have been fine. Highly commercialized and expensive. Nice 1.5 mile walk to town but otherwise not much if you're not paying the overpriced adventures. ...
Don't book anything through the ship. It's way overpriced and deceptive as to what you really get. You'll do better to book on your own. Loved my whale watching tour with Hoonah Travel Adventures. ...
