The guide explained everything ahead of time and we made several stops along the way to make sure we still had everyone in the group. We really liked the photo stop. The surrounding nature was amazing. The Husky’s can go quite fast. We also had overalls issued to protect from the wind and cold. Gloves and boots were also available. Overall a fantastic tour!!! Highly recommend!!

The actual dog sledding was phenomenal. I don’t think that this should be advertised as a 3 1/2 hour tour when it really was an hour between the time we showed up and we got to the sledding park. The actual driving was an hour for the dog sledding. That being said, The experience was well worth the money.

The whole experience was wonderful. The dogs seem to really enjoy running as all working dogs do. After sledding, the guide explains how the dogs are trained and their role in the pulling team. Fantastic experience
