The Explore Abisko Day Tour was a beautiful and memorable experience. The scenery around Abisko is breathtaking, and the tour offered the perfect balance of sightseeing, nature, and local insights. The guide was extremely service-minded and very knowledgeable, sharing stories and explanations with genuine passion. Their sharp eye and deep understanding of the area truly elevated the entire experience. The tour mentioned the possibility of spotting wildlife, but I honestly didn’t expect to see any. To my surprise, we ended up seeing multiple moose, reindeer, and even an eagle — a truly magical experience made possible thanks to the guide’s impressive awareness and expertise. From frozen lakes and mountains to quiet forest roads, every stop felt carefully chosen and the pace was relaxed and enjoyable. It was truly the best thing we did while staying in Kiruna. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to discover the natural beauty and wildlife of Abisko in an unforgettable way.

Cristina was super friendly and helpful. Luckily the weather was fantastic during the whole trip and we're being able to spot a mother moose with calf by the road for a moment, and the landscape Chirstina took us to was just astonishing. She would also take some pictures of you with the amazing view.
