A wonderful family experience! Easy, and very well organised. The dogs are well loved and cared for, and obviously love doing what they do. An absolute highlight of our trip

We first took the tour with the dogs (of the 6 dogs only one was husky, the others looked like strays). The scenery is amazing, movie, worth it. Only they should prepare people with gloves and better boots, we went through a LOT of cold that makes the full 10km tour unbearable, we did half because we could not stand the pain in our fingers anymore. The guide who took us was Italian, Davide, very friendly and spoke Spanish. Another day we did the hike in the woods and visit to the zoo, we were guided by another Italian, Gigi, also very friendly and explained everything very well, also spoke Spanish, and we left with double socks and other gloves. Gigi if you insisted on wearing the suits you borrow there and we did better. Overall very good experience.

From the time we were young children, we wanted to drive a husky team through the ancient forests of Lapland! Rovaniemi made that dream come true!

Our experience with the huskies was great! Highlight of our trip for our boys for sure. The big bummer was Viator had our time wrong on our itinerary and tickets. We woke up kids up at 6:30 to get there by 8:30 and when we showed up they said our time was at 10:30. So that was a bummer but the actual experience was awesome.

It has been an amazing experience, it has been very good weather, the dogs are very well looked after, the workers very friendly, especially our gigi guide, who has translated everything we did not understand into Spanish as well as being a very attentive person with us.

We loved the husky safari through the arctic winterwonderland. It was such a thrill and a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

We made three excursions with Nordic Unique Travel and the Husky trip was the excursion that surprised us! The connection you make with the dogs pulling the sled is wonderful and running through the snowy woods of Finnish Lapland is priceless! Our very kind Vichy guide. I recommend this experience to everyone!

We actually took the 5 km one but I guess it’s the same. We didn’t like the experience that much, the owner of the place didn’t explain anything to us about the dogs, the tradition behind it etc. the ride itself had a nice view, it was on a frozen lake, so you get the same view for the whole ride and you have to go with strangers if you’re not a group of 4 people. Also the dogs didn’t go fast, maybe because they were tired? Not sure how many rides they do per day. I would give 5+ stars to our guide Cristina, she was the only one to actually explain what kind of dogs they used for the ride, the history etc and she was super nice and prepared, so I would definitely recommend to take tours with her!
