A propos de cette activités
La prise en charge commence 15 minutes avant l'heure de départ. Nous devons prendre en charge des personnes sur 3 docks différents et en ville. Aussi, veuillez être prêt pour que nous puissions partir à l'heure. Les arrêts dépendent de la météo et comprennent des cascades, des sites historiques, des glaciers, des vallées alpines et des vues à couper le souffle. Nous ferons un arrêt lorsque cela est possible pour admirer des animaux sauvages le long du trajet. Ces animaux peuvent être des ours, des moutons, des chèvres, des marmottes et bien plus encore. Prenez une photo avec le panneau « Welcome to Alaska » et le panneau « Yukon ». L'aventure en traîneau tiré par des chiens comprend un élevage de chiots et un récit sur la vie d'un musher dans le Yukon. Le véhicule tiré par les chiens est un véhicule à quatre roues pouvant accueillir 5 personnes avec suffisamment de place pour que 2 personnes s'asseyent à l'arrière. Afin de ne pas surcharger les chiens, ce type de véhicule permet au musher d'aider l'équipe de chiens à gravir les collines et possède un bon système de freinage pour descendre les collines mais les chiens font le plus gros du travail. La batée d'or est effectuée dans les champs d'or de Liarsville. Votre guide vous apprendra comment chercher et vous donnera un pan avec de la terre pour que vous tentiez votre chance. Avec un peu d'aide, tous nos chercheurs d'or deviennent riches et peuvent ramener l'or pour le montrer à leurs amis. Nous pouvons vous déposer à la fin de votre excursion à votre bateau ou en ville pour profiter de nos bâtiments historiques et pour faire les boutiques.

The scenery on the was to and from the adventure was spectacular. That in itself was worth the trip. The sled dog adventure was very informative and a lot of fun. We are extremely happy we chose the excursion.
We enjoyed this trip immensely! Our guide, Jack, was great and entertaining. The kids (ages 11 and 9) loved the dog sledding and panning for gold.
Wonderfully fun and our driver was very informative. We even saw 4 bears, including a grizzly! The dog sledding was delightful!
This was a highlight of our vacation. We were on a cruise and booked this thru Viator because of great past experiences. Loved the 1 hour drive thru scenic area the train ran nearby so you get similar sightseeingbut as a bonus we got to meet Michelle and the dogs and play with puppies! Had plenty of time to play with the puppies then heard from Michelle about the team and race! Went on the ATV pulled by the dogs and it was a blast! Crazy Libby is our favorite husky! Bought a souvenir race bootie in the gift shop which was great. They have snacks , coffee, hot chocolate for purchase. The driver made several scenic stops on the way home, picked wild blueberries and drank glacier water! What a wonderful experience! It is a half day adventure but I would do it again even if the weather wasnt as perfect as it was when we were there! So well worth the trip! We thought we were settling to see the summer camp versus snow/glacier dog expeditions but this surpassed our expectations! We will be cheering Michelle on in the next Iditarod! She has new fans!!!! Love using Viator and have recommended them to other cruisers!
This tour is a must! We had great weather for our bus trip to the Yukon. The scenery was beautiful with numerous stops for photo opportunities. The Sled experience was interesting and exhilarating. Amazing to hold and interact with the puppies and adult dogs and learn all about what it takes to train these dogs for competition. Very rewarding day.
The ride out to the dog sled camp was nice, tour guide was very nice and informative. We went in August 2017. Its a long ride and some very beautiful areas. However, I do not recommend this expedition. We skipped the helicopter because of the weather and chose this expedition. When we arrived at the dog sled camp, there was no direction and it appeared the staff were uninterested in people coming. We were shuffled to onto a UTV and dogs pulled the UTV for training purposes. Then we sat around while staff ignored us and then we left. You could tell the staff were extremely passionate about what they do, but if I had to guess, if they had it their way they would prefer not to have visitors. I think they are doing this in order to make some money, but are annoyed at the tourist attraction. Im sure they are great at what they do but maybe they should stick to that. When we left we stopped at a gold panning camp. We were allowed 10 mins to get to gold panning area, pan for gold and have a cookie, due to time constraint. All and all I dont know where the problem is but it appears this entire expedition was slapped together without much interest. Save yourself some money and pay slightly more for something else. I gave it 1 star because I would not recommend. I am confused by all the positive reviews. But like I said maybe this was an isolated event.
We really enjoyed the tour and especially the dogs! Please note that if you do the tour in the summer which is high season in Alaska, you will not be riding on an actual sled due to the lack of snow. Instead, the dog are pulling a small SUV vehicle but you definitely get the feel. Bring your passports-you will need them as you have to cross the boarder into Canada to go to the dogsledding camp.
great trip all round..was not too keen on the panning for gold as very lame...everything else was wonderful....driver was great...dogs and sled trip was great.....stop offs on both to and from the dog sledding was amazing scenery..had an unforgettable experience...highly recommend....
