Absolutely fantastic experience. Anuk was so friendly and professional. The dogs were so happy and energetic, we could not stop smiling! The venue was quite charming too. It is not cheap however believe me, you will never regret what you have paid for. Thank you so much 💓
It was such a great experience to be able to drive a dog sled yourself. We've been told exactly what to do. The guides were totally nice and the dogs were great. It was one of the best experiences in my life and I would book it again and again.
A great experience: drive your own dog sled across the snow plains and through the forests! Even with zero experience doable.
What an amazing experience. Our guide was great, the dogs were so friendly, this was an all around fabulous experience. We were so glad we booked this excursion. You will definitely be warm enough in the suits they give you. Everyone was so friendly and gave great instructions as to how to drive the sled. If you are a dog person, this is definitely the activity for you. After you finish the ride you get to meet all the dogs, feed them and give them lots of love.
It is exciting and fun! Being able to be the driver while sledding was a once in a lifetime experience! The dogs are so strong and hard working. Sledding in the wilderness made this experience completely worthwhile!
Anuk spent a great deal of necessary time explaining how to mush the dogs and how to enjoy the experience. We loved it. We met the dogs and puppies afterwards.
Unforgettable experience, with helpful and calm explanation in how to drive the slide and taking care of the dogs. All were so friendly - We enjoyed evry minute of the Trip
This was something I’ve always wanted to do and this experiment exceeded my expectations.. The guide helped us to get on heavy winter attire to keep us warm. Next we learned how to work with the huskies. My husband drove and I set in the sled all wrapped up. We rode along for a long while before switching drivers. I didn’t believe my legs were strong enough, so my husband drove the whole time. Back from the ride, we were given food to give the huskies and time to love on them. The dogs were very affectionate. We also got to meet the younger puppies which was so fun. This experience is so fun. Do it if you can
The dogs were great. Our guide Linda was informative and a great teacher. We all had a good amount of time to ride and drive our own sleds. Excellent experience!
The ride is not 4 hours, it's approximately 1 hour, the rest is talking, changing in warm overalls, getting the instructions and drinking coffee after. The experience was great, nice dogs, I got to pet the dogs afterwards and I got to let some puppy's.
