Juneau - dog sled tour

[cpayne]

Does anyone know of a good tour company in Juneau that offers a dog sledding tour on the glaciers? This is our 8th cruise, but first one to Alaska. We've learned to NOT book our tours through the cruise ship for a higher quality experience. Looking for suggestions!

Cheri,

We booked thru Coastal, but, I believe, ERA also offers this tour in Juneau.

ERA- generally won't direct book ship passengers. Coastal is linked up with Goodwin's for glacier dog sledding. Be prepared it is the most canceled of Alaska tours- out of Skagway less so. I never made it, canceled upon twice. (but have been lucky to do extended dog sledding on snow. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] )

Book early for the Dog Sled excursions. They are popular and do/will fill up.

Do they cancel due to weather? If so, do you get a full refund?

Yes weather cancelations- and full refunds.

If you will be in Seward, Godwin Glacier Dogledding, and it is Godwin not Goodwin, offers the tour. However, it can be cheaper than the Juneau tour since they offer discounts for children. Same company partners with Coastal Helicopter in Juneau, but Coastal has not offered children discounts in the past.
