This is an incredible experience and a true highlight of our trip to Norway. I was travelling with my husband and his family. My father in law is 77 and managed this no problem but he is very physically strong. The dogs are wonderful and the explanation and hospitality that was shown by our hosts was top notch. The scenery was beautiful and we just loved every moment of it.

This was a fantastic experience! Self driving the sleds was thrilling, and the dogs were obviously the highlight. You could see how much they were loved, and loved working. Playing with the huskies was the highlight of our stay for my daughter.

This is an amazing enjoyable experience which I would highly recommend. Yes it is expensive but so worth it. The team at Arctic Adventures were helpful and friendly and the dogs were gorgeous. Such a beautiful adventure through a forest trail with stunning scenery and then drink and cake and learning about the huskies.

Our Tromsø Husky Self-Drive Sledding experience with Arctic Adventure Tours AS in Tromsø was absolutely incredible and one of the highlights of our trip to Norway. From the moment we arrived, the team was professional, organized, and safety-focused. They gave careful attention to every participant, making sure we understood the journey and felt comfortable before heading out. We were also provided with warm clothing to change into, which ensured everyone stayed comfortable in the Arctic conditions. The dog sledding adventure itself was exhilarating. The dogs are clearly very well cared for, energetic, and eager to run, which made the experience even more special. All of the sledding equipment was modern, well maintained, and easy to handle, helping everyone feel confident on the trail. We brought a group of seven people, including a 78-year-old, and every single person said this was their absolute favorite activity of the entire trip. After the ride, we loved spending time in the traditional Lavvu tent, warming up with delicious cake and hot beverages while enjoying the cozy atmosphere. The owner was also very informative and happy to answer questions, adding an educational element to the adventure. If you’re visiting Tromsø and looking for a truly memorable Arctic experience, this is it. Highest recommendation for anyone in the area.

The afternoon was absolutely flawless. From the collection onwards everything was superbly organised. The sledding itself is amazing. It feels extremely authentic to be out in the wild with the dogs and with the snow coming come. The kit provided kept you totally snug (especially after helping push the sled up some slopes!). Just over an hour felt right. You take to it quite quickly so by the end you really lapping up everything around you. We were a full group and we split into two which meant we had a perfect pace and the environment felt like a proper Arctic wilderness. The staff were great. The instruction was comprehensive without being over-powering and afterwards being served hot chocolate and delicious cake was a great reward. And of course a shout out for the stars of the show, the dogs. We had a great opportunity to interact with them and they were wonderful. This is memory I will take home the most from our Tromso adventure I think.
