Booked from the crusie ship, we originally planned to do it in Juneau, but due to the weather our first attempt was cancelled, so we re-scheduled for the following morning in Skagway. Again it was cancelled and re-scheduled but this time, for the afternoon. The afternoon excursion finally went ahead, and we made our way from the cruise ship to... More

Dog sledding in Juneau was our favorite excursion of the whole cruise. We loved our helicopter ride to the dog camp. Our guide was Matt Failor, which will be a rookie at the next Iditarod.
