Skagway Float Tours runs Taiya River raft floats and Chilkoot Trail hike & float trips in Dyea, with an office at 3rd and Broadway in the Golden North Hotel (Google Maps: 299 Broadway). It offers a float-only option and a backup short walk or drive for guests who can't do the 2-mile uneven hike, but a reseller says the float isn't wheelchair or limited-mobility accessible, and how guests get into the raft and the van steps aren't described. The office entrance and restrooms aren't known; the SW 2nd and 4th & Broadway SMART stops are about a block away. Note: AbleVu has no tour category, so this is listed as an attraction.

Operator offers a float-only Scenic River Float, described as a relaxing, easy trip of about 2 hours 15 minutes with about 40 minutes on the Taiya River.
Operator says the hike & float includes a 2-mile, moderately strenuous hike on an uneven dirt trail with some steep parts, rocks and roots and about 350 ft of elevation gain; hiking poles are available.
Operator says guests who can't do the hike can ask (in Special Instructions when booking) for a backup option, a short walk or drive with staff, then rejoin the group for the float; it isn't an equal experience.
Operator provides life jackets, rubber boots and rain ponchos, and drives guests by van about 10 miles to Dyea; it asks guests with back, knee, hip or balance issues to consider whether to take part.
Alaska Shore Excursions' River Float listing (operator not named on the page) says the tour is not wheelchair or limited-mobility accessible; there is no whitewater, about 40 minutes on the river, and the minimum age is 2.
