Advanced Dog Sledding at Camp Tamok
Had a great day with the family at Camp Tamok. The crew and guides were very friendly and helpful. We booked the advanced dogsledding tour and our guide Stefan did a great job both before, during and after the sledding tour. We were allowed to spend additional time with the huskies after the sledding tour and met the reindeers afterwards.

We’re thrilled your family had a great day at Camp Tamok! It’s wonderful that our guides, the advanced sledding tour, and the time with the huskies and reindeer made the experience so memorable.
Advanced dog sled tour to Camp Tamok, beautiful hike!!!
Superb night hike, (it was 4pm but given the period in the middle of the polar night it was already dark), with a sledge pulled by 5 wonderful Huskies for a sledge for two people.
Transfer by comfortable bus from Tromso of a couple of hours to go and a couple back.
An hour then between dressing, explanation of how to drive the sledge and preparations before departure.
Then we leave, following a snowmobile that guides the huskies and their sleds along the way.
The ride lasts an hour, it is quite challenging in the first half, because there are a few climbs, and the sled driver has to help the dogs, pushing the sled with the other participant inside, in the steepest and steepest points.
On the course there is always the assistance of the staff to help manage the sled in the most difficult moments.
Then on the way back, the beautiful and affectionate huskies greet and cuddle, and after undressing, we go to a Sami tent to enjoy an excellent fish soup with bread and hot drinks, before returning.
Hike absolutely recommended, maybe it could be lengthened a little more and the route could be better prepared, not so much for the climbs that are part of the beautiful place where Camp Tamok is located, but you could flatten a little the most irregular parts that cause stops of the huskies, for some off-piste with sleds, however fun in the soft surrounding snow.
Top experience, wonderful and recommended!!!

Fantastic!
My Boyfriend and I did the dog sledding today and it was absolutely wonderful! The sledding was a fantastic adventure across a magical landscape, the dogs clearly enjoyed themselves a great deal too! Our tour guide, Kira, was great on the bus journey to the kennels and she told us a lot of about the landscape and Norwegian culture. When we got to the kennels Domen was brilliant - he was really friendly, knowledgeable, and (most importantly) he clearly respected and loved the dogs very much. Domen's assistant (sorry I can't remember your name!) was also super lovely and really friendly and kind. We had lots of cuddle time with the dogs after the sledding, followed by hot coffee and cake. It was a wonderful way to spend the morning, thank you so much for the lovely memories.
Awesome experience, worth...
