These people are horrible. I will never forget that they took the money and didn’t allow us to experience it as we were 5 mins late. They said that they have reservations all the day around and hence couldn’t accommodate it. Truth be told, there were not many people coming so they could have easily accommodated us as the reason for us to be late was there was heavy snowfall. There are many other places for this experience which are cheaper and much better in terms of experience. Please go there and absolutely avoid this one.

Incredible experience dog sledding! Louie was our tour guide and he was friendly, helpful and so knowledgeable! He took time to make sure we had a lot of pictures and cuddles with his well kept Alaskan Huskies. This is an absolute must if you're visiting the area! Pick Rod's for all of the tours! Amazing customer service. The staff is amazing here!

This was a really fun taste of Alaska. They review safety and make sure you are warm then off you go. Our musher was very friendly ( the dogs were so excited that during introductions we didn’t catch his name and at the end we were petting the dogs and forgot to ask- our mistake) and told us all about the history of Alaska and dog sledding as well as his one and only run of the Iditarod ( he was number 777 to have finished the race). Great experience and for us was just about right…”a little taste” which was about 30-40min. Truly the sled isn’t super comfortable (not that we expected it to be) and you are focused on keeping your legs inside it as there are no sides just a few ropes). The ride took us through the forest and we made one stop to get out and pet the dogs and take pictures. Overall a great experience and we would do it again.

We are currently testing a couple new synthetic padding materials for our dog sled seats. The extreme range in temps makes the perfect "one type works in all temps" difficult to find. For now we are changing pads based on temps for more customer comfort. Thank you for the review.
