Highly recommended experience for children and adults. They provide you with additional warm clothing and explain in great detail how the activity will be carried out, always with great respect for the Husky dogs. Then at the end they gave us a hot juice, coffee and cookies, which is very good to warm up and finish the experience.

A 10 km husky sleigh ride is an exciting way to explore the snowy landscapes of Lapland. You'll fall in love with these wonderful creatures and the stunning scenery!

Description

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Rovaniemi at the designated time and head to the outskirts of the capital of Lapland to begin our adventure through the beautiful snow-covered landscapes. We'll arrive at a local husky breeder and learn all about this typical Nordic dog breed.

Then the action begins! After listening to the safety instructions, we'll hop on the sleigh to be whisked away on a relaxing 5-kilometer (3.1-mile) ride across these magnificent landscapes. If weather conditions require it, the sled will be driven by one of our expert drivers.

After a thrilling journey across the white blanket of Lapland, we'll head back to the husky farm to warm up around a bonfire and enjoy a warm drink and some delicious gingerbread cookies. It's like Christmas all year round!

At the end of the activity, we'll hop on the bus to make our way back to your hotel in Rovaniemi, where we'll arrive after a total of 3.5 hours.

Experiencia altamente recomendable para niños y adultos. Te facilitan ropa de abrigo adicional y te explican con mucho detalle cómo se va a realizar la actividad y siempre con mucho respeto hacia los perros Husky. Luego al final nos dieron un jugo caliente, café y galletas, que viene muy bien para calentarse y finalizar la experiencia. Translate this opinion into English.

la actividad muy chula, pero pone que hay guia en español y lo unico que hay es un chofer en español que no tradujo ni una palabra. Tuve que hacer yo de traductora a un grupo de 6 personas, y estoy de vacaciones no soy guia turistica, puedo entender pero contrate el tour aqui para que mi padre se enterase y acabe haciendo que 6 personas se pudieran enterar y disfrutar. El tour con huskys muy bien te explican como funciona la granja, conduje medio camino yo el trineo y media mitad mi padre. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity is very cool, but it says that there is a guide in Spanish and the only thing there is is a driver in Spanish who did not translate a word. I had to act as a translator for a group of 6 people, and I'm on vacation, I'm not a tourist guide, I can understand, but I booked the tour here so that my father could find out and I ended up making sure that 6 people could find out and enjoy. The tour with huskies explains very well how the farm works, I drove the sled half way and my father half the way. Opinion translated. Show original.

Lo hemos pasado muy bien! Los perros muy buenos y cariñosos. Conduces tu el propio trineo y te dan la opción de a mitad de camino cambiar el conductor. Paisajes espectaculares. Al finalizar nos han explicado la vida de los Huskies y han resuelto todas nuestras dudas. También nos han dado te de arándanos caliente y unas galletas. 100% recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

We had a good time! The dogs are very good and affectionate. You drive your own sled and they give you the option to change the driver halfway through. Spectacular scenery. At the end they explained the life of the Huskies to us and resolved all our doubts. They also gave us hot blueberry tea and some cookies. 100% recommendable. Opinion translated. Show original.

Aunque más corta de lo anunciado, la experiencia fue muy grata. Sólo un pero: hicimos la actividad con chófer, no con guía. El trabajo de la persona que nos trasladó, fue ése, llevarnos y traernos, ni una sóla cosa más. Creemos que un guía tiene un papel mucho más importante. Translate this opinion into English.

Although shorter than advertised, the experience was very pleasant. Just one but: we did the activity with a driver, not with a guide. The job of the person who moved us was that, to take us and bring us, not a single thing more. We believe that a guide has a much more important role. Opinion translated. Show original.

Actividad genial, el guía (Yeco) muy amable y aunque era italiano hablaba perfectamente inglés y español. El paseo es muy bonito, 10km me parece una distancia buena para poder disfrutar al máximo de la experiencia. Los perros estaban bien cuidados y deseando correr. Translate this opinion into English.

Great activity, the guide (Yeco) was very friendly and although he was Italian, he spoke English and Spanish perfectly. The walk is very nice, 10km seems like a good distance to be able to fully enjoy the experience. The dogs were well cared for and eager to run. Opinion translated. Show original.
