General Information

All sleds are guided for your security and safety. Howling Dog Tours will book tours in adult groups as per your booking – we have a maximum of 3 adults per sled, or 2 adults and 2 children (under the age of 10) per sled. When you book as 2, we do not add a third person or split couples up in different sleds. Those paying the singles rate are guaranteed one person per sled.

Please dress in warm winter gear (ski suits etc.), especially foot and head gear. We do not accept anyone in street shoes or running shoes. Howling Dog Tours reserves the right to turn away improperly dressed participants; no refund will be issued.

Contact our office toll-free at 1-877-DOG-SLED, or contact us online for more information.
