5.00Amazing experience driving your own sled of huskies! Husband and I were allowed to switch often, as it is quite physical! Scenery was amazing, even snowed on our ride! Lifetime experience come true- highly recommend. They supply boots and Arctic gear- comfortable cab pick up as well
Fantastic experience!

5.00A wonderful experience to remember. It is quite an amount maae if it is feasible for you, spend it on this experience! The dogs were unforgettable and it is amazing to be at the wheel yourself and thus become part of the team with the dogs. Super good and tight organization, warm suits that worked top and clear instruction how to drive the sled. It is useful to be reasonably fit, it is beat pawing. In summary: the highlight of our holiday!

5.00Lovely setting about 35 minutes from Tromso, very warm suits and boots, and enjoyable ride in a beautiful setting. There was about 16 of us, but the group was split so we had 3 sleds following the guide which was nice and made the ride smoother. It was a bit slow though, they warned us on how fast the dogs wanted to go but the guide was keeping the ride quite slow. Very enjoyable none the less. Plenty of cake later in the lavvu and a chance to ask Plenty of questions about the dogs.
The best time

5.00Just Wow! Such a welcome from both people and dogs. I was worried it would be over before we felt we had experienced it properly but I didn’t need to. We had the best time and would thoroughly recommend.
Magical Dog Sledding

5.00This tour was fantastic from start to finish. Pick up arrived at approximately 8.45 and left at 9 prompt. The driver was friendly and welcoming. On arrival you are given a thermal snow suit and boots. The huskies were absolutely gorgeous and super friendly. You can tell how loved they are by all the staff. The dog sledding was just magical. The trail is approximately 12km. My sister and I took it in turns to drive. The scenery was breathtaking and the huskies were incredible. Once finished you are welcomed with a delicious hot chocolate and slice of cake. The staff also tell you all about the huskies and invite questions after. An experience we'll never forget.

5.00This is a beautiful experience with dogs that are so happy. My daughters are animal lovers and they were skeptical about the happiness of the dogs until they saw them. They both agreed that these dogs were well taken care of and extremely happy to pull the sleighs. The staff was kind and knowledgeable.
Fun and Fantastic, the Best!

5.00The best part of our trip so far! My mom and I are on a Viking cruise, and I'm so glad I booked this. It was a fantastic experience and so much fun! Worth every penny. The dogs were amazing and we had a nice long run (at least an hour, maybe longer) out on the land. We stopped now n then to take turns being driver and passenger. The suits, gloves and boots they provided were perfect and we stayed warm, even when we were going into the wind. We had time to love on the dogs throughout the experience as well as take memorable photos and videos. The time in the laavu was warm and lovely as well, with hot drinks and tasty cakes! Book this trip, you won't regret it!
