DISCOVER<br />

DAWSON CITY<br />

3 DAYS<br />

Revel in the summertime vibe of<br />

one of the North’s most treasured<br />

towns. Hear Klondike Gold Rush<br />

stories that have enchanted visitors<br />

for a century: riches made and<br />

lost, golden dreams and heartbreak.<br />

Tour the goldfields and visit the<br />

area’s national historic sites.<br />

Day 1 –<br />

Welcome to the Klondike<br />

From Whitehorse, drive or fly to historic<br />

Dawson City for some Klondike hospitality.<br />

Check into your hotel, inn or B&B and<br />

explore the gold-dusted streets of Dawson<br />

City. In the evening drive up to the Midnight<br />

Dome, the rounded peak above Dawson City<br />

with panoramic views of the town and<br />

Yukon and Klondike river valleys.<br />

Five Finger Rapids lookout on the Yukon River – R. Postma<br />

Day 2 – Discover Dawson<br />

Join scheduled sightseeing and outdoor<br />

activity tours, or explore on your own.<br />

Visit museums and attractions, and take a<br />

paddlewheeler ride on the Yukon River. Visit<br />

the ODD Gallery, and don’t miss Dawson’s<br />

renowned entertainment—cancan dancers,<br />

bars and vibrant festivals. A visitor can’t<br />

come to Dawson City without spending an<br />

evening at Diamond Tooth Gerties Gambling<br />

Hall, Canada’s first casino.<br />

Day 3 –<br />

Strike it Rich in the Klondike<br />

Stroll the wooden boardwalks to find a<br />

special memento of your Klondike getaway.<br />

Keep an eye out for unique creations using<br />

placer gold, furs and mammoth ivory. Stroll<br />

the riverside dike remembering Klondike<br />

characters past and present.<br />
