We had an amazing time on the Ultimate Dog Sledding trip. Everything was well organized and the experience exceeded our expectations. Having our own sled for a full hour was awesome and never felt rushed. It gave us plenty of time to really enjoy the ride and take in the scenery. The dogs were clearly well cared for and full of energy. We also had time afterward to hang out with them, take photos, and learn more about how everything works. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. The hot chocolate at the end was a great touch, and there were plenty of opportunities for photos throughout the trip. This was easily one of the highlights of our time in Canada and something I would absolutely recommend to anyone considering it.
The dog sled ride and waterfall walk were hands down among the best adventures my wife and I have ever had! Sophie, our tour bus guide, was incredibly personable and energetic—she engaged everyone, shared great historical information about the province, and made the experience even more enjoyable. She was fantastic! Alice, our musher, provided a smooth and educational ride. Truly an amazing and unforgettable adventure.
This was a wonderful experience. I would recommend this to anyone. Our guide Sophie was awesome. She is very friendly and helpful and made the tour very enjoyable. Thank you!
What a great experience - we were well taken care of for an amazing experience dog Sledding, afterwards a warm fire and hot chocolate kept us warm - and then a beautiful hike to a frozen waterfall. It was a True North experience indeed! Love love loved it!
The vistas were breathtaking! Great way to experience being out in nature. I don’t think I’ve ever experienced snow that pristine, and the ride was exhilarating. The hike was very short and ended at a lovely body of gushing water…beautiful.
It was so fun! This was one of a few things that I wanted to do whilst visiting Canada and it did not disappoint. The dogs were adorable and you get plenty of time to pat them all. The sledding was a unique experience and my guide was super knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!
pick up in Ottawa was super easy, Jen was lovely and the dog sledding was fabulous, the dogs were amazing, the family run business was top notch, super people, everything about the experience was fabulous and a perfect length of time, I highly recommend the experience and would do it again
Hi Linda, Thank you very much for your kind words and we are so glad you enjoyed your experience with us. Have a great day and until next time, Brandon Bolduc owner Aventure Outaouais
This was by far the highlight of our visit to Ottawa!! Loving on the dogs was a true delight as they snuggled in for rubs. It is evident that each dog is very loved and well cared for. Listening to the whoosh of the sled gliding over the sparkling snow as the dogs ran ahead was an experience no one should miss. Every guide was more than kind. Don’t miss out on this adventure!
Jan was a great hostess and Julian was an outstanding musher. A beautiful time enjoying the dogs in a beautiful setting. Questions answered, cold weather fun was had by all! Thanks Julian!
I booked it because of the good reviews & didn’t get disappointed. The guide went above and beyond. Dog sledding was once in a lifetime experience. Just make sure to dress up according to the weather!
Hi Natalia, So glad we were able to meet your expectations and that you had a great time with us. It was a pleasure to host you and we wish you a safe trip home! Best regards, Brandon Bolduc Owner Aventure Outaouais
