Best Arctic Experience: Dog Sledding in Mind-Blowing Landscapes - Highlight: Absolutely mind blowing experience in a wonderful landscape with warm and caring people. I can only recommend booking this dog sledding activity: the dogs are super kind and happy (our dog team was super powerful and very friendly) and we had so much fun sledding with them! The people there care so much about the dogs, we loved chatting with them. On top of that, the soup was super tasty!

Team there were amazing and funny. All the gear was provided. Soup and bread at the end were delicious! Worth it, considering the amount of time you actually get to spend dogsledding.

Real fun! - The tour group is going on a large bus for about an hour with stunning views along the road. Given the size of the group, the trip does not feel very personal. But once on the sled, its just two people, very eager dogs, and beautiful views around. We got great and entertaining instructions. So even though we have never done this before, we had no problems and enjoyed the experience. If you love dogs, you must do this. The dogs are just so enthusiastic and ready to run at fast speed. Fun!

Well organised, totally epic - This trip exceeded our expectations. The tour was incredibly well organised from joining the coach to reaching the dogs where we received our safety briefing. The journey took approx 40 mins and the scenery on route was wonderful. We arrived to a scenic location next to a lake where a wonderful woman at the husky’s gave us a full briefing before we were kitted out in our gear. It was minus 20c and so I would recommend to wear their kit plus bring hand and feet warmers. The dogs were exceptional, really friendly and very excited. After the initial first time nerves of driving we both settled into it and absolutely loved the experience. Sledging through this scenery as the sun set at 2pm will stay with me forever. We returned back to base for soup and fresh focaccia.

Good experience - It was a good experience for us. The dogs were lovely and friendly. I really enjoyed the landscapes during dog sledging. It was good to see the dogs running happily, and we also had fun. However, the staff who led the way from the front moved slowly, so the speed was slow. There were many stops in the middle, and I think it would be good if the speed was a little faster.
