On my last trip to Banff, I booked a dog sledding tour with this company. That day is now among one of the most memorable  in my life, and I can't wait to do it again!

The driver picked us up outside of the Banff Springs promptly and was very nice. It was snowing on the drive to Canmore, but I was amazed at what a great driver he was!

Once we arrived on site, the dogsledding guides were extremely professional and covered all the bases!

When I heard of dogsledding tours in the past, I always assumed the guide would drive the sled, and you just got to sit and enjoy the ride.

I was in for a major surprise! We had control of our own sled and it was totally the real deal!

At the end of the tour, the staff provided our group with home made cookies and hot apple cider, and started a bonfire.

I definitely recommend this company if you are looking to do a dog sled tour!

If you have ever wanted to go dog sledding and are in the Calgary/Canmore/Banff area, you should definitely check Snowy Owl out. Everyone that worked there was so nice and the tour itself was so much fun! We got to meet most of the dogs, all of which are well behaved and friendly. The best part was being able to control the sled! I took the Powder Hound Express tour which was 2 hours. I would recommend signing up for a longer tour because it goes by really fast and you'll wish you had more time on the sled!
