FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

More of Alaska’s pristine beauty! This tour includes the Wilderness Adventure and an additional hour of trail riding through the Boreal Forest. With more time comes more opportunities for potential wildlife spotting.

For single-unit riders, it could be considered more advanced.  The added trail time adds to the physicality of operating your unit as well as the potential for more river crossings.  If you are concerned about your riding ability, we encourage you to consider a side-by-side unit which has a much easier learning curve to overcome.

Yes! Maybe! No! This is not a zoo, so animals are not guaranteed – Moose, fox, porcupines, snowshoe hares, sheep, lynx, wolves, bears. Morning and late afternoon are typically the best times; Longer tours offer better chances.

While we do not provide refreshments on tour, there will be opportunities to enjoy self-provided drinks and snacks at our scheduled stopping points.

Short answer is no. If interested in doing the longer tour at a different time, please contact us directly for information on booking a Private Explorer Tour.

Wear clothing appropriate for all weather and trail conditions. Layers are best in Denali, including a wind/rain layer. Choose clothing that can get dirty or wet. Closed-toe shoes are required, and sturdy sneakers or boots are recommended for the tour.

Our tour office is open from 7am to 9pm during the summer season. In 2024, we will operate tours May 17 – September 8.
