Great way to see Fairbanks and learn about the Athabaskans culture. Loved meeting the people along the way. The sled dog demo was great as well as seeing the dogs put through a run. Then back for a hearty meal at the dining hall.

This was a well-organized visit including a nice lunch. The river was beautiful and the stops along the way to view the float plane, kennels, and Athabaskan village were quite informative and interesting.
