Oh we had an awesome time on this tour. We had to catch a little 5 minute shuttle (waiting outside on the ship port) in town. It was free for us because we were going on the tour. I think its $6 rt. Our tour guide Jennifer was very informative and had a great sense of humer. She let us know what to expect each step of the way. All our adventure had an interesting story to go with it. We cross boarders from Alaska to Yukon Canada. We did the dog sled ride. The dog were so happy to see us We even did a little gold mining activity. She carried us back to our ship. I loved this tour.

This was by far the worst booking I have done through Viator. The advertisement was for dog sledding. Now, I can understand that there was no snow so of no fault to the vendor or viator. However, there was no dog sledding. The dogs were strapped to the fromnt of a jeep and we rode on the jeep for 10 minutes. There was no adventure. This was an expensive excursion which left a horrible taste for the alaskan adventure this day . The bus to pick us up from the city center was late. And the driver only had 6 month experience with false information about the city. I fact checked everything she said, and she just made things up. The end with a "gold mine adventure" was a bucket of sand in water looking for a gold nugget that was a speck thought to be gold. If i could rate this experience as negative, i would.

Enjoyed this very much. Well worth the time and money. Would recommend to others. Local provider had to change times which was actually better for us.

Chris was an awesome guide. He was personable and entertaining. We were lucky to see a mama bear and her three cubs along the road. The mushing camp was fun and informative. Very cute puppies and a nice ride on the 4 wheel drive pulled by the dogs. The talk by the musher let us in on the tricks of running the race. Gold panning was ok.

the dogs were adorable and it was interesting to learn about the sport of sledding. the bus ride was comfortable and stopped along the way to look at beautiful sites and learn more about history/nature facts. the gold panning was at the dog camp so don’t get confused you’ll go somewhere outside to physically pan for it, it was still a fun experience!
