Unforgettable Experience!!!! - My family of 4 loved this once in a lifetime experience!! They picked us up at our hotel, drove us to the site, gave us a safety briefing, and introduced us to our dog team. They had a photographer taking photos and videos of the experience that they sent to us later. It was really cool having those photos and videos in addition to the ones I took myself. The dogs were friendly and so excited about everything!! We thoroughly enjoyed the excursion!! My kids said it was the best thing we did on vacation!!!

Safe and fun experience! - My friends and I totally enjoyed this experience. From the pickup, to photography, to the dog mushing, everything was spotless! Everyone was knowledgeable and was happy to answer all our questions. I like how the mushers also take great care of the dogs and even had us thank them for taking us around safely. BIG thanks to our musher, Jameson, for being the most wonderful guide.

Over the river and through the woods..... This was a beautiful dog sled tour! - This was an EXCELLENT experience! The tour was handled with the utmost professionalism, the trail was beautiful, the musher was cool, and the dogs were fantastic! Aside from the dog sledding (which was great), we were able to pet and interact with the entire team of dogs, and the tour director took tons of pictures and videos which were made available the same day. Our musher was a wealth of information and informed us about the dogs, the training, etc. And as I mentioned, the staff was top notch professional, making sure everyone had a great time. We even had a slight delay when one of the team's dog's puppy "escaped" and they had to go catch it. The staff was quite apologetic, far and above what was necessary and quite honestly, what one would get in other situations. That shows they really care about the client experience. That was a big deal as that kind of attention to customer satisfaction is rare in this day and age. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend this tour to everyone! First rate!

Thrilling sled ride with amazing dogs - The tour provides hotel pickup and drop. Our driver was the sweetest lady who dropped us at the ride location and back. She was punctual and professional and willing to go the extra mile. David did a great job photographing our rides and sent us the pictures and videos quickly later. The Mushers Jake and his team of 3Js were experts. They let the dogs lead but at the same time listened to their needs and kept their pace accordingly throughout the ride. Jeremy did a great job taking us expertly through the trails. The dogs are amazing and so friendly. We got a chance to pet them and they were very obliging. So much Oxytocin released :) I would totally recommend the activity to have a great time.
