My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our Dog Sledding and Mushing Experience with Rod’s Alaskan Guide Service. First and foremost, Annie who worked the front desk was amazing. Very professional, courteous, and polite with answering my questions prior to booking. She returned my calls promptly given that I was visiting from California and traveling with my 2 young daughters ages 7 and 10. Since we were a family of 4, we were split into 2 groups with our own musher. My oldest daughter and I were privileged to have Matt Hall as our musher! He is an all around champion who was competed in several races such as the Copper Basin Sled Dog Race and the Yukon Quest Sled Dog Race. He placed 2nd this year in the Yukon Quest Dog Race. So, my daughter and I were so lucky to have him. Matt was very humble, friendly and personable. He answered all our questions regarding his beautiful sled dogs and his experiences as a musher. Our dog sledding ride was tons of fun. We had 9 dogs pull us and our sled was quite comfortable. As for my husband and younger daughter, their musher was Luther. He was just as friendly and personable as Matt. My husband said Luther was very good at explaining and talking about his own race dogs and his experiences as a musher. I noticed that the mushers take such pride in caring for their dogs. It was so cute to see the sled dogs all ran with mini booties on all their paws. All the dogs were amazing. They were very friendly and my daughters had so much fun petting them and interacting with them. Hands down, I highly recommend Rod’s Alaskan Guide Service for THE BEST sled dog mushing experience in Alaska. You won’t regret it!!!
