5.00Warm chocolate chip cookies welcome you home on the range. The horse drawn wagon ride to a chuck wagon style dinner is a great way to spend a night in the land of the midnight sun. Jackie our guide and Will our driver were a great team full of funny stories. King and Duke our horses were real work horses pulling our group. The good food and fellowship was a great way to spend the night. The complimentary shuttle picked us up and dropped us off at the door of our hotel. First class service and experience. Pictured is not our horses that is Joker the true star!!

4.00Fun time on the wagon ride. Loved our wagon tour guide. The horses were beautiful! The food was so so but as expected for the type of activity. The bus driver getting there drove a little crazy but we made it. I mean we got there fast. That school bus had turbo.
