Amazong expérience, even though we didn't see the northern lights, the husky ride was amazing. We got to influence the velocity of the sleigh, after the ride, we could cuddle huskys and also puppies. And guide was very nice, he told us about husky caring and training. You should definitely try it.

It was a great experience. I really got In love with every dog. There are so cute and we were also allowed to pet them.
Husky sledge is an experience you will never forget, the cutest huskies ever- petting them after the tour <3
We were picked up right on time in Rovaniemi city center and transported out to the location. Upon arrival we were immediately met by the kindest and helpful dog sled staff. We were fitted with warm weather gear and were on our way. The staff was great, I can't emphasize that enough! I couldn't believe that we were able to drive the sleds ourselves after easy straight forward training. After the adventure we were able to play with the dogs and enjoy sausages and traditional Finnish Glogi. Fun stories were shared by the staff around the fire. Even though it was too cloudy to see any northern lights, the adventure was phenomenal and the highlight of our trip.
Great staff and great experience! Highly recommend for anyone, especially if you have children, everyone except children get to drive.
It was a great experience both as passenger and as driver. The dogs are really friendly. The ride is totally safe and the people working at the place are all the time watching for you. We weren´t lucky about the northern lights (it was cloudy) but anyway the guide was really nice and explained us a lot of interesting things about huskies, mushers and sled dogs. We had a great time.
Amazing ride. Huskies are so cute. The guide was very friendly, he had very interesting stories what to tell us and that makes everything so much better. Organisation was on 100%

Ein tolles Erlebnis. Nach anfänglichen Problemen im Gespann sind wir nach einem Hundewechsel mit dem nachfolgenden Schlitten allen davongefahren. Die Hunde folgen dem Schneemobil, sodass man sich keine Sorge um die Richtung machen muss.
Super liebe Hunde, die sich nach der Tour gerne streicheln ließen.
Leider gab es keine Nordlichter, aber das Erlebnis war es trotzdem wert.
Ich empfehle, die bereitgestellte Ausrüstung von Apukka anzuziehen. Im Zweifelsfall ist sie wärmer als die Eigene.
Abendtour gebucht.
Einkleiden und Einführung in den Schlitten erhalten.
Ca 1 Stunde Schlittenfahrt, Fahrerwechsel möglich.
Nach der Fahrt haben sich die Guides Zeit genommen um der Gruppe am Feuer alles zu erklären ( ca 1 Stunden).
Gut organisiert, den Guides ist die Begeisterung anzumerken
