5.00Amazing experience! Definitely a must do. The tour guides were incredible and our musher Ronan did a great job! We also enjoyed the educational session about the Iditarod and hanging out with the puppies!
Seavey Sled Dog experience A+++!

5.00Great day with our tour guide Daryl. We got the sled dog experience at Mitch Seaveys, got to ride a wheeled cart pulled by a team of 12-14 sled dogs and play with some new 8 week old puppies. Nice lunch at the Sea and Salt restaurant in Seward. Daryl provides commentary on the entire bus ride which is great. Then went to Exit Glacier and took the 3 mile round trip hike to see the glacier with him. More great info about the park and glacier. Ended the trip with a quick stop at a place where we got to see salmon swimming upstream to spawn, so close you could almost touch them. Wonderful tour, saw more great sites than we expected. Thanks Daryl!
Dog Sled fun!

5.00It’s was so fun. And our guide was great. He was extremely knowledgeable. And the best part was holding the puppies and interacting with the fofs.
Good, but not worth the price

3.00The crew were very organized and professional. However, it is too expensive for dogs pulling you on a gravel path in a circle.
Awesome

3.00Nice experience but for the price we expected more. The website makes the actual sled/cart ride sound longer but it was maybe 20 minutes. The talk about what goes into the Iditarod race is interesting - they dress up a dog volunteer in the gear. The puppies (from the local shelter) were very cute. I don't think the whole thing took the full hour and a half. It was a rainy day at the end of the season so maybe that was why things were cut short. I did appreciate the hot chocolate. If you have some time to kill in Seward it might be worth a visit but this isn't a must-do in my books.
Would recommend this...
