Dogsled and Reindeer Day Trip to Borealis Basecamp

Dogsled and Reindeer Day Trip to Borealis Basecamp

Overview

We work exclusively with local, passionate mushers who view their dog teams as their family, and you will have the chance to understand this incredible sport on your hourlong ride through the snowy forest. You will ride on a genuine dogsled, either seated or standing, as the team of 8 dogs swings through the forest with you and your guide at a comfortable but thrilling pace. You will also have the chance to see the dog kennels, and a replica of a dog-sled race checkpoint, where the competitive mushers stop for fuel and rest on their long winter races.

On your reindeer tour, our experienced reindeer handlers will introduce you to the herd of reindeer at Borealis Basecamp, and you can feed, meet, and take pictures with these incredible animals.

The activities and staff were amazing!! Both our musher and reindeer guide were so knowledgeable and patient. They answered so many questions and still were happy to share! Entire staff from pickup to check in to lunch were great. My rating comes from the fact that there was 4.5 hours where we were sitting around waiting. 1.5 hours before activity started, 1.5 hours after mushing and another 1.5 hours after reindeer experience before we were picked up to go back to town. Shorter duration would have opened our day up to see more of amazing Fairbanks.

Dog sledding was great! I didn’t rent a car so hotel pick up was why I chose this company. Everyone was super nice. Reindeer experience was okay. Too much waiting around time during the day.

Both dogmusher and reindeer interaction guides were friendly and very knowledgeable, answering questions and providing lots of interesting information. We spent time before the dogsledding greeting the dogs and getting photos. Both guides took lots of pics of us so we had a great memento of the interactions and experience.
