Well organised and very safe with clear instructions for driving a snowmobile, even for beginners. The guide (unfortunately I didn’t catch his name, but was French) ensured we all had a safe and rewarding drive. The food offered at the Sami tent was both hearty and warm, with second rounds if you wanted! I would recommend this trip.

The activity consists of making circles in the 2 fields adjoining the starting point with a small hike of 15 min in the forest to take a photo! The experience is really made for a beginner’s initiation and you should not hope to discover the region with this organization. It is impossible to exceed 20km/h or get off the trail without being stopped and reprimanded!

We had a half hour delay being picked up on top of having to be there half an hour early.I feel the experience should have been cancelled as the weather was extremely bad into the tour resulting in it been cut short.Also be aware of been asked to take out extra insurance cover to cover any accidental damage to the snow mobiles but we weren't allowed to check for any existing damage and also no checks were made as to who had ridden which particular snow mobile.Also protective clothing was wet already when allocated .

We stayed overnight at Camp Tamok. After arriving, we had a great snowmobile ride with the Northern Lights 👍after a great evening with a campfire and a night in a small, cozy chalet, we had a dog sled safari in the morning in the best weather. It was just a great time with new acquaintances. Highly recommended
Wonderful arctic experience

Great experience riding the snowmobile in snow frozen mountains amid arctic wilderness. Our guide was super and clear with instructions. Full points to the activity, though it is quite expensive viz-a-viz same activity in Finland. Also the package includes lunch, however it’s just a light meal with coffee.
