As a Vacation Planner, my personal experience can make the difference between the trip of your dreams or your worst nightmare! Early in September 1999 I travelled to this fascinating part of North America on a Holland America Cruise/Tour educational trip for travel agents. This gave us an opportunity to experience the region and the travel products so that we could better advise our clients.

We arrived in Whitehorse on the now defunct Canada 3000 airline in the late afternoon. After a short bus ride we checked into the hotel and headed out for the evening’s entertainment: The Frantic Follies. http://www.galenfrysinger.com/whitehorse_follies.htm This was a light-hearted comedy imitating the styles and antics from the Gold Rush era. The following day consisted of a coach tour from Whitehorse to Carcross Junction, passing the endless evergreen forests , sparkling waterfalls and emerald waters of the region’s lakes. http://www.galenfrysinger.com/carcross_yukon.htm
Carcross Junction is a town with many souvenirs from its early days as a supply post on the Gold Rush Trail.

Just outside the town, we boarded the White Pass and Yukon Railway for a breathtaking journey to Skagway. This narrow guage railway uses antique passenger cars (with a modern diesel engine) to transit a torturous route through the mountains to the sea. Crossing several elevated trestles with nothing on either side but a thousand feet of air, the passengers gaze down at the thread-like trail of the Yukon Gold Rush Trail used a century ago by prospectors seeking their fortunes.

‘The best kosher vacation anywhere, bar none’.

For too long, the kosher-observant vacationer has had to trade experiences for requirements. Luxury for necessity. Interesting destinations for pedestrian ones. And quality for, well, something less.

That’s all a thing of the past. Welcome to the world of Chosen Voyage by Intrav. It’s kosher travel without compromise. (more…)
