Amazing experience and well organised. This was a lifetime ambition and lived up to every expectation. The dogs are well looked after, have a great temperament and love to be petted.

My mother and I did this exciting activity while staying in Reykjavik. We had a great time, and the dog owners who run the activity were amazing with my mother's limited mobility! She uses a walker and they just took the best care of us, with pickup from the hotel and return to the hotel afterwards! Cannot thank you enough for all you did to make this great for us!
Dogsledding was the highlight of our trip!

The best money I've spent in a long time! Absolutely wonderful, and a once in a lifetime experience. The team were really friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and fun. Dogs were amazing and very enthusiastic! Setting was beautiful and weather was perfect; sled ran on a frozen lake with patches of snow cover. Good length of time on the sled - from sitting at the front, to driving from the back, our sled had 4 people and it never felt crowded. Great time at the end of the session to spend petting and playing with the dogs. If you're considering this activity, definitely book it!

This was easily the highlight of our trip to Iceland. Klara and the other guides were so kind and funny, and you could tell they truly love their work. Every dog had its own personality and was so excited to meet us. Such an incredible experience—we’re so glad we went!

Worth every second . The views are breathtaking, the dogs and their trainers are amazing. We rode at sunrise (about 10:20 am) and it was cold but spectacular!
Magical experience.

This was an amazing experience. The guides did a great job of teaching us about their daily process and about the dogs. They also provided us with a super fun experience that was worth every penny, especially being able to pet and take pictures with the dogs!
