WE had a super time with Tyler and his dogs. Tyler was informative and gave us lots of info on dogs, mushing, racing and the overall experience in Alaska. The ride was great and time with the pups was fun too, Tyler answered any and all questions. We had a terrific experience and would do it again at the drop of a hat.

The dog sledding ride was a one of it's kind experience. We really enjoyed our ride by Joe Weber and he was quite accommodating with us considering it was our first time meeting the dogs. Would highly recommend Rod's Alaskan Guide Services

We had done a lot of research for our Alaskan holiday and Rods guide service repeatedly came up and with good reviews. We drove out to Rods and checked in for our tour. The team kitted us out withe good cold weather gear they have. We then waited for our tour time to arrive and we were paired up with our dog musher who took us out to the dog team. We got to quickly meet the team and then got on the sled. Rods hire local people with there teams of dogs to do the tours. We got on and we were off. You go out halfway and stop, meet the dogs and get to pat them and have photos, then its back on the sled and back to base. It was a really good hour and we loved the experience. It was just a shame we couldn't get onto a longer tour but we had fun anyway. I would highly recommend it.

Ice fishing had always been a bucket list item that I had wanted to do. In researching the holiday for Alaska, Rods guide service always came up with good reviews. We booked in online and paid and got the confirmation with the location / GPS coordinates. You obliviously need to get there at the designated time and being in the dark, we were a little bit worried getting there. The drive from Fairbanks was about 50 minutes on the Motorway and some snowier "B" roads. We followed the car GPS to Chena lake reserve and found the carpark to the lake. The directions on the booking were excellent and we got there easily. We were met on the lake with our cabin guide. He showed us into our cabin on the frozen, snow covered lake. It seated 16, 4 banks of 4 seats. There was a log fire in the middle. The holes for the fishing were pre drilled and covered. They had all the fishing gear on the walls. We had 6 people in our cabin. We started fishing and it was pretty good to start with and then after 30 minutes the fish stopped biting. We only got 1 fish in our cabin and only 3 in the other cabin. We had a dog sled tour stop into our cabin to warm up. The cabin guide made hot drinks for us when we wanted as well. I was going outside every now and again to check for the northern lights. They eventually came out, but not in there full radiance which was a little disappointing. But that's nature. We still got to see the lights again which was good. We really enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend it.

Had a fantastic time on tour with Luther. Very informative and loved learning about his team. Was an experiment we won’t forget.

This is such an excellent and amazing experience. It was so wonderful to find out how much the dogs are cared for and how happy they were to go running. So much fun and great people. Jimmy' Dogs were the best loved spending time with them and Jimmy was so nice and answered all our questions.

Not the best, not the worst. They have all of the winter gears that was needed for the ride ( no need to bring a bunch of stuff like I did). The place was very crowded to check in, and staff was very nice. Musher was nice, and she was caring for the dogs. We paid $140 for private driver to drive us round trip from Fair Bank to this place in North Pole.

Tyson made ice fishing so fun and was so super helpful, he was extremely accommodating and toke pictures and videos of the lights and share them with us😊 Thanks for a great experience!

We had a really nice ride with jimmy and his family of dogs. Is was great to learn about the mushing way of life and how the dogs are part of the family

We had a great time on this tour! It is a must for anyone visiting in the cold months. It was a very cold day, so we really appreciated the heated cabin and warm drinks. Our guide, Trevor, was AMAZING! He was patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He taught us fishing techniques and shared a lot of fun and local knowledge. He was the best! Highly recommend this activity!

We cannot recommend our dog sledding with Matt and his dogs. We were a family of three and it was incredible. We went about 10-15min on a ride and took a break to play with the dogs and get some pictures before another 15min returning. 100% you should do this experience through Rod's. Thanks again Matt for a great experience!

Really enjoyed our dog sledding adventure!! Everyone was very professional. Our guide was very knowledgeable and I enjoyed talking with him about the sport. Special thanks to Jimmy's dogs for pulling us around!!!

The tour guide/fisherman Mike was very knowledgeable about ice fishing. He was professional and determined to create a unique experience for us. He was encouraging and provided us with strategies to be the best fisher people possible. Although, I wasn’t successful catching a fish this was a fun and memorable activity. I would highly recommend it.

Patient, friendly, enthusiastic, knowledgeable. All words you want to be able to use in describing a guide. And all words you can definitely use to describe our ice fishing guide, Mike. Went with the family (wife and 2 kids, 12 and 11), and although we didn’t do that well snagging fish we had a good time and enjoyed the experience. Terrific time was had by those of us in the cabin and he cooked up a mean king salmon (caught by more fortunate fishermen) for us to share. Recommended and I would definitely not hesitate to utilize Rod’s Service again.

We had an awesome time dogsledding! The views were amazing as was our guide. Jimmy's Dogs were so well behaved. We loved learning about each of their personalities and how they are trained. Giving them all treats at the end made them so happy! Thanks for a great experience.
