Perfect Snowshoe Experience

5.00We joined the snowshoe hike with Wandering Owl and it turned out to be one of the best activity of our trip. Walking through the silent, snow-covered landscapes felt magical, peaceful, and incredibly beautiful. A very special thank you to our guide, Gerard. He made the whole experience truly memorable. He was not only professional and attentive, but also genuinely passionate about the region. You could really feel how much he loves what he does. He shared fascinating stories and insights along the way, which made the hike even more meaningful. The scenery was absolutely stunning, and the pace was perfect for enjoying every moment. The transport was comfortable and well organized, and the picnic in the snow was such a lovely touch, exactly what we needed. Everything felt well prepared and organised. We would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone looking for something special and authentic in the winter landscape. Thank you again, Gerard, for your kindness and enthusiasm, it truly made a difference!

5.00Our guide Roman was a real gem! He was informative on so many levels! We learned so much in a short time about the Northern Lights because he actually chases them! He too is to a few special Fords on our trip as well as the Local beach! We enjoyed so much the healthy sandwiches and amazing homemade oatmeal cookies that were outstanding! He also took professional fotos for anyone who desired! I highly recommend this tour!
Well worth doing.
