The ride was awesome and our guide was also very helpful. I only wish I knew ahead of time the sled allows for both an adult and my 6 year old to ride at the same time, as I thought my wife and I would have to drive separates sleds. Slightly tricky to find the pickup location without a photo, but our guide and other travelers were patiently waiting for us for a few minutes.

Super nice tour. The huskies are amazing and friendly and they want to play. There were puppies too. So cute. The slide ride is awsome with breathtaking panoramic view and the dogs love to run.

Our guide Mika was wonderful - on time, super friendly and told us insightful information about Lapland. The tour had the right amount of people. The husky sleigh experience was magical. I thoroughly enjoyed the bbq at the end too.

This husky safari was an amazing experience from beginning to end! Our guide, Mika, was fantastic—he arrived right on time for pickup and made sure we were perfectly prepared by providing warm winter overalls. The ride itself was incredible and the highlight of our trip. One of the best parts was getting plenty of time after the sledding to hug and pet the huskies; they are so friendly and well-cared for. We ended the day around a cozy BBQ with hot drinks, marshmallows, and cookies before Mika dropped us back off. Truly a seamless and unforgettable day. Highly recommend Mika if you're looking for an authentic Arctic adventure!
Great experience sledding with the Huskies.

We had a wonderful time with Mika and the team in Lapland. Mika provided lots of local information on the drive out to the husky farm. We even saw a huge elk as we got closer to the farm. Before the ride we were given large onesy suits to go over our own winter clothes, plus winter boots and large outer gloves to go over our mittens. This extra layers kept us warm on the cold day of our adventure, which was -30 degrees. But we were very warm with all the layers. Then it was time to meet the husky dogs and receive instructions on how to control the sled. Half way through our ride, the team stopped to take photos and video of us and the dogs on our own phones. After which, we swapped over drivers to continue the ride. The ride was magical, along a quiet trail, surrounded by snow and trees. It was calm and serene as a passenger, and thrilling and exciting when driving the dogs. After the ride, we had sasuages on the open fire BBQ, some glogi, tea and coffee, and toasting of marshmallows for the kids. All in all, a unique experience we will not forget.

We had an amazing husky trip and it was truly a fantastic experience. The self-driving husky adventure made it even more special — being in control while gliding through the snowy landscape was unforgettable. The dogs were full of energy and excitement, eager to run and push through the snow, which made the whole experience feel authentic and thrilling. You could really see how much they love what they do. The organiser did an excellent job from start to finish, ensuring everything was well explained, safe, and enjoyable. Their professionalism and attention to detail made the trip smooth and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a genuine and exciting winter experience!
