Great Place

We had a fantastic time walking through the complex. The Haaglund ride was great. Bit rough, but a great experience. Commentary was great. Saw a Penguin and the huskies. Loved it.

Getting the Antarctic experience

Great place to get a taste of Antarctica. Can pat a husky dog, see the blue penguins being fed, experience a snow storm and so much more.
