SunFunCruiser Posted July 28, 2006 #1 Share Posted July 28, 2006 with Orca Enterprises Anyone have any experiences with this tour? They don't give much info on the web site. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukon Posted July 28, 2006 #2 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I don't know why Orca would mention it, but the only Yukon sled dog tour is at Carcross, available through many excursion operators in Skagway - http://www.yukonhuskies.com/kennel_tours.html is the operator's site.

NancyIL Posted July 28, 2006 #4 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I just looked at Orca's web site. I'm sure they don't actually do this - they book for other independent vendors. But it looks very interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukon Posted July 28, 2006 #5 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Here is the web site for Orca.http://www.orcaenterprises.com/1-other%20tours.htm Ah, they're doing reservations for other companies now - didn't know that. That's Frontier Excursions' tour they're selling - http://www.frontierexcursions.com/tour/y_sdog/y_sdog.html Murray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case, does this seem like a good excursion or has anyone done this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukon Posted July 28, 2006 #7 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Thanks for the info. What would be the advantage of booking through Orca?? There is none - taking reservations is just easy money. Murray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donkeytiara Posted July 28, 2006 #8 Share Posted July 28, 2006 cheryl ~ I've been looking at booking the same tour throught Southeast Tours (www.southeasttours.com) called the deluxe yukon tour...and it's only $115....can't seem to find any difference between the tours, can you?? ~ cindy:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chloesmommi Posted July 28, 2006 #9 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Actually, the advantage in booking through Orca is if you are doing a morning whale watch with Captain Larry, he will take you right to the heliport for your helicopter flight to the glacier. We will be doing this at the end of August. Will let you know how it works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booking through Orca can be helpful when both excursions are in Juneau, but in the case of the OP - the dog sled excursion is in Skagway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancy, I'm glad you pointed this out. I was starting to get confused, doesn't take much <G>. I went back to the Orca site to make sure the whale watching I wanted was in Juneau. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
