Seeing the care the trainers and sled drivers have for these dogs in the summer and riding on a sled pulled by them was awesome! These dogs love what they do and that makes participating in this ride very worthwhile.

We really wanted to see the sled dogs at their summer camp. We did do that, but we later heard of others who had done a similar tour 0- to the exact same places - for nearly half of the cost. We were able to see lots of sled dogs later, but I guess that we didn't know that at the time

This was probably the least favorite of our excursions on our Alaska Cruise not because it was bad but because it was so slow moving. We had plenty of time to explore Skagway before our tour left. There were about 10 of us that headed out to the mushers camp in the Yukon. The driver was new to Skagway, having spent the summer in Juneau before being traded to Skagway. He did a great job of covering the history and highlights of Skagway before taking us out on the Yukon Highway. The drive out to the mushers camp was pleasant but unmemorable. The excursion included lunch at the mushers camp, nothing to write home about. The mushers camp was interesting with the highlight being a ride on wheeled sled pulled by a team of sled dogs that are training for the Yukon Quest Dog Sled Race. This was followed by an informative talk by the musher about dog sled racing. We returned back to Skagway better informed about dog sled racing.
