We were fortunate to have a small group which made visiting the areas easy. The reindeer park was beautiful and a wonderful experience to meet and feed the reindeer and then go for a ride in the sleighs. The host was very welcoming and provided lots of information about the area for us. The husky park was great and we loved our ride in the sleigh. Petra was our host at the park and she was very welcoming and friendly. Our tour guide, Victor was wonderful, ensuring that we all had a great experience. I would highly recommend this tour.

Our guide was great, on time and very helpful. Reindeer farm experience was amazing! Highly recommend. However husky farm
was disappointing, could not pet dogs and all in cages. Husky ride was ok.

Good organization, good communication. I personally think Rovamieni is a little bit too commercial and so are the activities.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Dear Nuria,
Thank you for your kind words about our organization and communication — we really appreciate it!
We understand your point about Rovaniemi feeling a bit commercial, especially during the high season. It’s a very popular destination, which naturally brings a more developed tourism infrastructure and busy activities.
That said, we always try to offer more authentic and less crowded experiences whenever possible, and we’re happy to tailor programs to better match personal preferences.
We hope to have the chance to create an even more off-the-beaten-path experience for you next time!
Best regards,
Uljana

Response from Host, Mar 2026
Dear Jamie,
Thank you for your kind words! We’re happy to hear Victor made your tour a highlight — we’ll be sure to pass on your compliments!
Best regards,

An absolutely amazing experience!
The husky and reindeer tour felt like stepping into a fairytale. The forest ride with the huskies was the highlight for me, pure magic and something I’ll never forget.
I was also lucky to be part of a beautiful, respectful group, which made the whole experience even more special. Everything felt well organized, peaceful and truly authentic.
I will definitely remain with wonderful memories from this experience. Highly recommended! ❤️
Erik_L, Jan 2026
Very nice experience to learn and experience the reindeers and huskies. Friendly guide and very welcoming hosts of the Huskypark and reindeer farm. Very much enjoyed this experience and certainly recommend it
L_B, Jan 2026
This is a very efficient way to do both activities. Our tour guide was superb, communicative, and super helpful throughout. In retrospect I would have just done the reindeer farm; the husky village is OK, but the trip itself isn't all that great and it's much less informative and enjoyable than the reindeer ride and farm visit.
Nealy_F, Jan 2026
Loved this excursion! The meeting spot was easy to find. Our driver/guide was friendly and helpful. The reindeer park was very authentic and our guide there was genuine and experienced. The husky ride was a bit commercial but was such a cool experience regardless. The whole tour just the right amount of time, and not too strenuous. It was a small group size (there were 5 of us) so it felt more personal.
Mel_C, Dec 2025
Worth the price, very friendly guide. We enjoyed both the Huskies and reindeer rides. They were both exhilarating!
viator, Dec 2025
We are a family of four and really enjoyed this experience. It was the perfect duration for us—just right for someone who wants to experience a reindeer and husky ride without a full day commitment. A special highlight was the reindeer ride at the farm; it felt very authentic and peaceful. The husky ride was equally fun. Highly recommend if you're looking for a well-paced introduction to these Arctic activities!
Zoe_D, Dec 2025
Perfect for travellers with young children, this experience gave short, manageable experiences of the huskies and reindeer. Our guide Emma was super helpful in tailoring the experience to our needs. Highly recommend and we all loved it.
David_B, Dec 2025
It is extremely important to understand the need for a local guide. Emma was just brilliant and very informative. I personally enjoyed the knowledge she imparted
alisonrooker, Dec 2025
I loved this trip . Reindeer were friendly ..well good after …. No hard sell …no gift shops .. guide was informative … reindeer gave you a taste but happy about length of ride as didn’t want reindeer to have to work hard …I have fallen for reindeer
Huskies were also great but experience not so personal . Had a great time. I would boom again
katie, Dec 2025
We had a great time, would definitely do it again. Our driver was awesome, so friendly and even took some pics of us. We did the reindeer ride first thing in the morning at 9:30am & it was still dark out when we arrived at the farm. I think that made it more magical. We fed the reindeer & had our sleigh ride. It was a beautiful experience. Afterwards we went inside to hear our guide tell us about the reindeer & we were served coffee/tea and cookies. We then drove to the Husky Farm. The husky ride was a lot of fun, those dogs were fast. I think we even caught some air at one point. We then got to pet one of them in their cages. Afterwards the group went inside to warm up by the fire with apple cider and cookies. The guide gave us a history of the dogs and we learned all about their training. We were able to check out the gift shop before getting dropped off back at our hotel.
Laura_B, Dec 2025
My family and I had a wonderful time. The reindeer farm was the highlight for me - particularly the sleigh ride. For others in our party, the husky ride was their favourite. So everybody was happy! We were picked up and dropped off on time, and the guide was very kind and knowledgeable.

Understand more about Reindeers and the huskies. Interesting information especially for countries that do not have reindeers.
altair_g, Nov 2025
It was just ok. No reindeer rides because it is too early in the season, and I think this was common knowledge. I wish the advertising had been more accurate.
The huskies were the highlight. They are the rides at the Santa village so you can do that yourself when you visit Santa.
The driver/tour guide was friendly and very accommodating.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
We appreciate your review.
We are so glad the huskies and our friendly guide were a highlight for you!
Thank you!

Wasn’t good like we expected. Quality of sleighs was really poor comparing to others we faced around. Husky ride was in Santa’s Village and was very touristic. We were expecting to have it somewhere close to forrest. They should have chosen another spot for such tour as we could already experience that one during our visit to Santa’s Village. Info abt the huskies was not satisfactory. Only good point was the shuttle driver. He was very helpful, informative and friendly.
Overall, I do not recommend this tour.
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the experience didn’t meet your expectations. We strive to provide a memorable and high-quality experience, and we regret that aspects of the tour, such as the sleigh quality and husky ride location, fell short for you.
Regarding the husky ride, we appreciate your perspective and will take your comments into consideration when reviewing our tour locations and informational content. We want all our guests to feel fully immersed in the experience, and your input helps us improve.

The reindeer farm was good but it is worth to know that the sleigh ride takes only about 2-3 minutes the rest is about feeding animals, having coffee, meeting with the owner.
The Husky farm was disappointing for us. The farm was actually the one at Santa Claus Village which is busy and crowded. The 2kms ride takes about 10 mins. We got a hot drink but we could not meet the huskies we could only see them in their cage.
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. However, we're sorry to hear that the husky farm did not meet your expectations. We understand that the busy atmosphere and limited interaction with the huskies may have been disappointing. Your feedback is valuable, and we will take it into consideration to improve the experience. We appreciate your visit and hope to offer you a better experience in the future!

Really fun day with Sergei. He was very informative and gave us great advice. Reindeer sleigh ride was short but fun. Same with dog sled. I would book again.

Attended this experience which was booked by my wife. We were picked up at our accommodation by our guide Alex & then taken for a drive to pick up a Spanish couple before attending the reindeer sled ride. Our guide Alex was superb - friendly, full of information (and Finish/Russian jokes) as well as making sure that our group got the most out of our experience by putting us in front of other persons attending & always ensuring that we were being looked after. When there was a problem at the husky safari ride due to lack of available staff, he made it known to the operators that their lack of staff was not our problem - we had a booking & they needed to provide the service as per the booking. Eventually we got a handler for the huskies but our handler clearly didnt want to be there - he was very rude & abrupt to Alex as well as all of us attending the experience. We didn't catch his name but someone needs to remind him that the visitors are paying his wage... If he doesn't want to interact with the customers, he should go bear hunting in the wilderness with no weapons..... the dog handler's attitude towards us was very unprofessional & it is only because the dogs were so beautiful, that we would do it again - provided that our handler only got to clean up the dog excrement and has nothing to do with customer contact.....
An honourable mention to Hemi at the end of the husky experience, who provided us with all of the information about the husky farm, their training, lifespan and how they are integrated into the sled teams. He was really engaging & funny & added to Alex's professionalism. It's just a pity our dog handler was not of the same charactor as these two guys.
Response from Host, Feb 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you had a great experience with Alex as your guide – we’re proud of the dedication and care he brings to every tour. We also appreciate your kind words about Hemi and his informative session at the husky farm.
We sincerely apologize for the negative experience you had with the husky safari handler. We understand your frustration, and we will certainly address this issue with the operator to ensure it doesn’t affect future guests. Customer satisfaction is incredibly important to us, and we want all aspects of the experience to reflect the high standards we strive for.
We’re glad you still enjoyed the beautiful huskies, and we would love to have you back for another adventure with a better experience next time. Thank you again for your feedback!"

The dog sledding happens at the Husky Park in the Santa Village. This was very unclear from the description and a bit of a bummer. The conditions at the park don't seem super great for the dogs. They seem generally happy but I thought we would be going to a place that provided the dogs with much more living space. Also, the reindeer and dog rides were both very brief. Certainly not close to the advertised lengths. The reindeer farm was super cool -- the guy who works at the farm was easily a highlight. I wish the Husky Park had that kind of person to guide us around.
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Dear Matthew,
The combo safari of Reindeer and Huskies safaris combine lenth of 2 km husky safari and 500m reindeer safari, to make sure you can get in 3,5h a full experience of 2 different safaris. The length of our tracks is clearly displayed on the tour page, as well it was double checked by our stuff in the beginning of the season.
I assure you that all animals are treated well, as well as the dogs are not enough walking space in their home cells, and they have enough free time when the park closes (around 16:00).
Thank you for sharing your concern, but you can be sure that all animals are happy and well cared!
Best Regards,

Great experience for the whole family. The husky 2Km run a cross the frozen lake was the perfect lenght. I highly recommend this trip for families with young children.
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Thank you for your great review! We're so happy to hear that the husky run across the frozen lake was just the right length for your family. It’s wonderful that you found the experience perfect for young children, and we really appreciate your recommendation. We’d love to welcome your family back for more adventures in the future!
