Get ready for the ultimate glacier dog sledding experience! The hands-on Extended Glacier Dog Sled Adventure is a truly personalized and exclusive tour that allows you to experience the life of a professional dog musher. These well-cared for and loved Alaskan Huskies are born and raised here, and you have the unique opportunity on this tour to take an in-depth look at the history, lifestyle, and techniques of Alaska dog sledding.
Your adventure begins with a convenient pickup next to the cruise ship docks. Then, it’s just a short drive through town to the helicopter base on Douglas Island for gear fitting and a brief safety orientation. Excitement brews as you head to your helicopter to begin your epic flightseeing journey! Enjoy jaw-dropping views of the Tongass National Forest and Juneau’s Icefield, keeping your eyes peeled for wildlife and calving glaciers. Finally, you’ll land at ‘Dog World’ on the beautiful and remote Norris Glacier. You’ll meet your guides who are professional Iditarod and Yukon Quest dog mushers along with your team of excited Alaskan Huskies who are eagerly waiting to run across the snow-capped glacier. You’ll have the option to assist with harnessing and booting the dogs, learning to drive the sled, and learning how to provide the best wellness care for the team. Then, you’ll board the sled and at the musher’s signal, the dogs are off for a breathtaking 4-mile ride! The thrill and excitement of a dogsled ride in this incredible landscape is an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime. Upon return from mushing, enjoy the opportunity to assist in feeding your dogsled team a snack. You’ll also get an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of Dog World for a closer look at the glacier dog camp lifestyle. This tour is topped off with a light lunch prepared by the camp’s chef.
 
After your 2 ½ hours on the glacier, enjoy another stunning flight back to the helicopter base. Here, you’ll be able to view the photos taken during your dogsled adventure with the option to purchase them. This excursion will leave you with unforgettable and fond memories of your time with the dogs in Juneau. Seats are extremely limited on this exclusive excursion, so reserve yours early!
