The scenery was breathtaking with several stops to take pics including the welcome to Yukon and Alaska signs. Loved the dog sled experience and watching the dogs work. Our guide Dennis was so informative. Carribo Crossing nice stop

My first thought was we were going to get the opportunity to ride the sled. If that’s what you expect don’t book this one. We rode a bus with the driver giving some of the history of the area. We went to a place where some dogs were trained. They let the dogs out into an area. They put the dogs back up, brought out some puppies. The puppies were put up. A sled was shown. Some dogs were brought out and hooked to the sled. Pulling the sled with one of the workers on board the unit made one pass around a track. The dogs were put up and we were on our way back on our bus tour.

I believe this review may be for the wrong company. Our dog-mushing tour the guests actually ride on the cart pulled by dogs. If this was not your experience, I believe this is for the wrong company.

Don't do this tour, if you are looking for a sled dog experience. Although advertised as a dog sledding attraction with a Yukon tour, it's best described as a Yukon tour with lunch. When we arrived at the dog sledding we were told we couldn't play with the puppies because they needed to nap. The closest we could get to the adult sled dogs was 30 ft away behind two barricades. Finally our tour director stepped in and we were allowed to hold one of the puppies for a very short period of time and passed him around the group; however, the pup was not an Alaskan Husky, sled dog pup it was a rescue dog they were caring for unt it found a home. To his credit, the driver Brian, was excellent narrator and very knowledgeable who drove very carefully. The Yukon Territory was beautiful, but the sled dog experience was awful
