We did the Draft Horse Drawn Covered Wagon and Dining excursion. The ride was as comfortable as you could hope for a covered wagon and the draft horses were beautiful and well behaved. The driver and guide were terrific. We started at a relatively high elevation and traveled through country with spectacular views of mountains and forests down to a shallow river with a gravel bed that was fun to explore. The river meandered around the base of a tall hill with a sheer face with exposed gravel, indicating that the hill was a large gravel mound created during the last glacier period. from there we wagoned to a spacious log lodge in the low land for lunch, and from there back to the main lodge. We recommend this excursion as a leisurely way to enjoy the beautiful Alaskan backcountry.

This is a must do. They pick you up/drop you off at your hotel. Snacks, dinner, even greeted us with a warm cookie! The guides were very nice and knowledgeable.

Our guides, Nina and Kate, were very knowledgeable and fun! Sure, it was rainy and muddy, but the horses were champs. The dinner was tasty, a lot of food!
