LARGE GROUP KENNEL TOURS
(Bus Tours & Group Travel)
Fairbanks, Alaska
TOUR SUMMARY
Looking for an Alaska stop that’s memorable, authentic, and genuinely delightful for guests?
Our Large Group Kennel Tour is the same guided experience as our standard Summer Kennel Tour—just with logistics and flow designed specifically for bus tour groups and larger parties.
Guests meet our friendly sled dogs, hear stories from the trail, learn how a working kennel operates, and get plenty of time for photos and questions.
We’ve created a comfortable setup for big groups with level ground, outdoor seating, and plenty of space to spread out—ideal for older guests and mixed mobility groups.
