The experience was awesome but we happen to be the last into the sleds. There was no staff behind us following us and my husband fell off of the sleigh he was dragged about 50 yards, for safety reasons they should always be a guide at the end and the beginning.

This was an incredible experience. The dogs were so fun to be around and it was awesome getting to drive the sled. You get a good mix of just sitting and riding the sled and “driving”. The views were breathtaking. It is by far a highlight of the trip. The owner of the dogs was super friendly and explained all about the dogs, the history and what they do.

This fulfilled a life long ambition to drive a sled dog team ! Great experience with the dogs and the scenery was also fantastic. We got to see the operation, understand how they look after their dogs and were able to pat them ! All the dogs were friendly!

Absolutely terrifying and intimidating but so much fun! Great instruction was given, you have to have a bit of physical strength and endurance in order to be the one driving the sled. I highly recommend using their snow suits boots and gloves.

Loved the whole experience, dogs were friendly and handlers well knowledge. Felt safe and in good hands throughout. Particularly liked understanding more about the dogs, the selection, the training & their retirement. If I lived here would definitely consider offering a home too one Max Bkk Thailand

Amazing experience with huskies ! This was such a fun experience learning about dog-sledding techniques, and actually driving the sled with 5 huskies pulling from the front. Extremities tend to get cold, so wearing a good pair of gloves is recommended. The hot chocolate and cake inside the Laavu (similar to a Tepee) and learning about the Huskies and training are the cherry on top.

The husky sleigh ride was a great experience. The dogs are kept species-appropriate and lovingly. Everything was well organized and I would leave anytime.

Wonderful!! We had a fantastic day. The owner clearly takes pride in her operation and provides a world class experience. All equipment is provided including a full snow suit and good boots. You get a short training in running the sled, and then you're off gliding through gorgeous landscape with long views of mountain peaks. The dogs were all obviously well trained, loved, and cared for. You get to love on them, and they absolutely love you right back. Hot drinks, delicious cake, and a nice Q&A await after sledding. Thanks for an unforgettable afternoon!
