Too hot a bus, but cute puppies.

4.00The lunch and being with the puppies was definitely a plus. But the ride was too long and the driver didn’t know how to turn off the heater which made the ride very uncomfortable.
Do yourself a favor and stay away from this Tour Operator!!

1.00Horrible customer service and follow up- Rude agents and poor communication. There are lots of other operators with similar itineraries. Please don't make the same mistake we did.
Great day

5.00Tour guide was wonderful! Lunch was great. My friends went on the train ride and were jealous of our adventure when they heard about all of the stops we made.
Beautiful sights and puppy love.

5.00Our driver, Chad, was so awesome. They picked us up right outside the terminal and we drove up into Canada to see and play with some real life sled dogs. He was a plethora of information and stopped at all the beautiful sights to let us out to take pictures and just marvel at the wonders of the scenery. We drank water from a glacier waterfall, saw Emerald Lake, stopped at the Welcome to Alaska Sign and the Yukon sign among others. The Sled Dog stop was about an hour (too short for everyone, but who doesn't want to spend all day playing with sweet puppies, right). We got to be "pulled" on a jeep by actual sled dogs who compete in different races, play with their puppies, and have a quick and delicious lunch before heading back. 10 out of 10 stars!
