From start to finish, this was well organized, fun, and informative. We were greeted with warm cookies and taken to our wagons for a beautiful drive. Dinner was good, simple food and there was plenty of it, along with wine and great conversation.

This was so much fun! Michael was the driver, and he was a rodeo champ. Our tour guide was awesome too! The views were amazing. The food was in a fun atmosphere. It was a really relaxing morning.

Was very excited for this excursion when picked up by Igore our driver! He was knowledgeable and very entertaining. We arrived to be met by warm cookies and a fire. Light rain was happening but didn’t dampen our spirits. We were on a wagon with 12 others and it was comfortable with the blankets they supplied. However our guide, James, spent most of the time talking about himself and his up coming adventures. When we asked questions about the area he lacked knowledge to answer them and asked the driver, Nina we think, to help answer them. Once at the dinner he seemed distracted while serving our group. On return trip he again talked mainly about himself so much that other guest began cutting jokes to try and bring him around. Didn’t seem to work. It was dark and raining and we just wanted it to be over. He was focused on two weeks left to the season and his up coming travels. Food was good. But the shelter was a little cramped to be able to enjoy too much. Note there are only porta potties to use after dinner. Over all would be a great adventure when not raining and in daylight.

We booked this at the last minute the day we arrived in Denali and are so glad we did! The wagon ride was so relaxing with beautiful views. Our guide (Mike, I think!) was super nice and funny. They even provided blankets to keep us warm. The dinner at the end was served family style with small portions, but all you had to do was ask if you wanted more. Everything was delicious! Especially nice to not have to worry about where we were getting dinner after a long day of traveling.

We had an afternoon tour and enjoyed the trip. It started with a warm chocolate chip cookie before we began. There were 10 total in our wagon and it didn't feel crowded. It was chilly so they gave us blankets for our laps. The tour area has beautiful views and being pulled by the two beautiful horses volt and louie was fun. The tour guide and driver were knowledgeable and seemed to enjoy their job. Marek and Sarah were great. The food was good and plentiful. It is served family style so its like 9-10 courses as they call it but its just brought out one item at a time. The table had cole slaw, potato salad and pasta salad on the table when we sat down with corn muffins. We were served corn, chicken, ribs and salmon. Sarah asked if we wanted any more of anything. They also served a cobbler for dessert which was tasty but was not hot. Still good. Overall I would recommend the tour. Just keep in mind if you are wanting to see different scenery then double check where different tours go. The area we traveled was also shared by atv tours too.
