We went on the wagon ride provided by D & S through the Mt. McKinley Princess Lodge. After riding in the wagon for about 45 minutes, we went to a pavilion, cooked s'mores, panned for gold, and couples got to try to master the "moose kiss". I would recommend this tour, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable about Alaska.

Had a chance to go horseback riding in Talkeetna with these folks. they are brand new business in Talkeetna (not really in town) They are located off Montana Creek off the main highway. The trail ride was fun but not much scenery. You ride along the roadway for most of the ride. The guides and owners are very nice. Great horses. Could use some improvement but fun for a few hours.

This is the best Denali wilderness tour yet. Our guide was Kevin Hey, very knowledgable, organized and helpful. He ran a tight ship. We took the trip back to Kantishna Roadhouse. We saw many moose and bear. Kevin gave us a lot of history about the park, pointers on the activities of the animals and geology lessons on the formation of the glaciers, the mountains and the tundra. It was a very enjoyable learning experience. We have been to Alaska ten times and in the park eight times and twice we took the Kantishna Wilderness Trail tour as it is the best!!!!

This is one of those tours where you can't get your money back if you cancel at the last minute so we went in the rain. It was still a nice ride and they outfit you to stay dry, but in the fog and rain there is no chance of seeing Mt. McKinley, and there were not a lot of stops for pictures. If I could do it again, I would still book this tour in advance and roll the dice as we only had one night at McKinley Princess and this was still a good late afternoon activity option.

My daughter and I took a nice one hour ride with a trail boss calling himself "Alabama" who was very nice and safety conscious. We rode along the river beach and then through parts of town where other tourists took pictures of us (funny). It was relaxing and Alabama was very differential towards my young daughter and her interest in horses. They have longer rides. I used to have horses and can tell they keep theirs in good shape.

The wranglers great! They knew most of us were inexperienced and were first and foremost concerned for our safety. They knew which horses were troublemakers and grumpy and kept them near the wranglers during the ride. Beautiful scenery and wonderful ride. I'd highly recommend it.

We booked this trail ride through the Mt. McKinley Princess Wilderness lodge. They picked my husband and I up, along with 4 other guests at the hotel and it was a short drive to the stables. We were given some long jackets to wear to since there was a light drizzle and to protect our clothes. They also had helmets available. They gave a safety and riding talk and assigned horses and then we started the ride. There were 2 guides- one in front and one in the back. My husband and I were in the front and were able to easily talk with the guide in front. He was easy to talk to and knowledgeable. He talked about the area's scenery, wildlife and plant life. We only saw some birds on the trip and Denali was not visible but it was still a great ride. It is one of those rides were you only walk, pretty much nose to tail, but I enjoyed it even though I am an experience rider. It is just nice to get out in nature and experience it during a peaceful and pretty trail ride. The horses were well trained and seemed well taken care of. There is a stop where the guides take a picture of you (and those of you in the same party), and then try and sell it to you for $10 at the end of the trip. It was a good picture (and would have been even better if Denali was visible) and we bought it- along with everyone else- as it is hard to get couple photographs when traveling. The entire tour was scheduled for 2 hours, including the drive to and from the stable and the safety part, but surprising the tour lasted longer; we were on the horses for about 2 hours which was nice and a pleasant surprise.

This area relied on horses during the trapping and mining days.

Rode with this family owned outfit into the woods. Great guides, very friendly and knowledgable. They really enjoyed their "jobs". We did not see Mt. McKinley as it was clouded over however we did have a wonderful time atop our trusty steads. They take your photograph near the end and then charge you for it, which was $10 per photo I believe. Should have been included in the excursion price. The quality of the printer isn't very good either. I would rather they took it with my camera!

We traveled by covered wagon to the top of a hill. We got to feed the caribou, roast marshmallows, pan for gold, and visit by the campfire with owner, Steve and teamster, Justin. By the end of the day, we were very happy that we had the chance to experience this trip and felt we had truly made friends.
