We recently did a whole day trip with Marine and her amazing dogs. This will be for sure one of the highlights of the Yukon trip for us. She is an amazing person who loves her dog and curated an adventure day for us. Join her for an adventure and you won't regret it.

We were a group of 3 people and we had so much fun! It was our first time dog sledding and really enjoyed every aspect of it. Marine was great at what she does! Would recommend to experience in the Yukon 👍🏼

It was an AMAZING experience for me! Marine Gastard is a wonderful host and tour guide. The dogs showed real heroics. So humble; yet so strong. Thank you Marine and your dogs once again. I highly recommend anyone who is in an around #Whitehorse to book a sledding tour with you guys. All the very best with the rest of season and hope you see you guys later.

We did a half day ride. It was absolutely wonderful. The dogs are well cared for and Marine and her family are very welcoming. Marine even sets up the dogs for your team based on personality, speed and of course size of person (my wife had a team of four and I had a team of six (I need to lose a little weight). Warm jackets, boots, pants and gloves are also provided. And of course the scenery is beautiful. We spent about eight days in Yukon and Northwest Territories. The dogsledding adventure was hands down my wife's favourite part of our visit.

Did full day, like everyone review it the same. You help harness the dog you get quick lesson what to do, all dogs listen to Marine. What I will tell are the things other won’t say.
1. Keep you phone warm my iphx doesn’t have a case so I couldn’t take much photo or video cause it was too cold for the sensor to work. I had to rub my hands to warm up d screen. So that means I couldn’t really do that when holding on the sled.
2. You will fall from the sled, HOLD ON or else the dogs will keep going. They don’t care if you on or not they just run. I fell 4 times and once dragged 100 feet and press on the brakes and didn’t slow them down.
3. Yes they supply gear for you so you don’t freeze. Snow boots to keep your feet warms. Thick jackets , mittens
4. I brought treats for the dogs 2kg snack they all waited for me to feed them at the end. You can buy it at grocery store.
5. Full day lunch was a fire camp sausage and bun meal. You can as much as you want, BUT REMEMBER there no toilets till you get back,
6. Like horses they keep pulling and will pooh and pee while walking and pulling.
7. Remember to tip!! They don’t ask for it but it’s a service!! When you go to a resto do you not leave a tip? They set everything up for you. Yea so you paid few hundred for it but it not like you doing this on a weekly basis. Remember it’s not cheap to maintain 30-40 dogs.
8. The dogs love to be petted and like to climb on you.
9. You have to get off the sled on up hill and jump on when they have momentum.
10. You wonder how these dogs still have the energy to pull you for 2 hrs straight non stop and still want to keep going!
It’s a great experience something you should try. A little sore the next day I’m guessing from the falls and standing up 4-5 hrs.

I booked a full day dog sled adventure with these guys and it was one of the best experiences of my life! I was lucky enough to be the only one on this tour. Marine has an obvious love and passion for these dogs and mushing, I booked with these guys because they are a family run business. The dogs are beautiful and clearly well looked after given their eagerness to please. The scenery is absolutely stunning! I recommend the full day tour, from greeting the dogs, helping with their harness’ and plenty of cuddles! Jackets, pants, boots & gloves are provided, which I was extremely thankful for coming from Australia. It was a windy old day and I didn’t get cold! Make sure you book in advance as it does book out fast. THANK YOU Marine & family for the wonderful experience.

This is a small family run dog sledding business. Marine our guide does this all by herself looking after the welfare of a number of amazing dogs. You greet the dogs, play them and harness them up.
Marine was informative and we were fortunate enough to be the only people on the tour. Though this did not feel like a tour in the traditional sense. You are taken to through some spectacular scenery and varied terrain, stopping at a very scenic viewpoint to have an snow-firepit lunch.
This will be the best thing you try in Yukon or probably anywhere else (if you're into the outdoors). This is a combination of my two favourite activities snowboarding and being in the company of dogs.

Had an awesome experience doing a half day of dog sledding with Into The Wild.
Really enjoyed the time leading up to the sledding; meeting all the dogs, learning their names and getting their harnesses on (plus having a cuddle!)
Sledding was awesome, we chose the more challenging option which was a work out but really enjoyed it.
A small, family owned company, super warm and so kind to have us in their home.
Can’t recommend enough.

What drew my friend and I to this company was that it's small and family owned. The guides were friendly, and we were taught how to harness the dogs and given a brief tutorial of how to use the sleds, although it doesn't completely prepare you for when you're actually out there with the dogs, dealing with the cold, the speed, and the trees/plants along the way. I gave 4 stars because, although I had a pleasant experience overall, the jackets they lent us clearly hadn't been washed and it's unknown for how long. They smelled and we found items in the pockets.

We had a fabulous time doing the half-day sledding with Marine! The scenery was beautiful, the ride was exhilarating at times. Felt so in tune with nature, being pulled by our incredible four-legged friends. We made it in the -40 degree cold! Highly recommend.
