BlondeKajun Posted April 29, 2011 #1 Share Posted April 29, 2011 My granddaughters are animal lovers an have their heart set on the Dog Sledding/Helicopter excursion which is very expensive. Has anyone any experience with independents who offer this excursion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkSusan Posted April 29, 2011 #2 Share Posted April 29, 2011 My granddaughters are animal lovers an have their heart set on the Dog Sledding/Helicopter excursion which is very expensive. Has anyone any experience with independents who offer this excursion? There are, but I recently did some research for someone else that was trying to find it cheaper and what I found is that it was only like $10 difference between the ship and an independent excursion. So no big savings there. Unfortunately, this is a very popular excursion and with it comes a very high price. Susan in Anchorage :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipmaster Posted April 29, 2011 #3 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I booked directly if you call that independent. I saved enough to make it worthwhile, but not like savings you can get in some ports. We loved it! You must book early as the companies reserve a large number their capacity for the cruiseline exclusive. You must plan and have a backup plan. Also be warned these are "working" animals so they live differently. My granddaughters are animal lovers an have their heart set on the Dog Sledding/Helicopter excursion which is very expensive.

Budget Queen Posted April 30, 2011 #4 Share Posted April 30, 2011 There are three companies out of Juneau and 1 out of Skagway to research. The savings aren't significant, but there is some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
