Fun experience

Was picked up by Jans who was very welcoming , chatty about what the next few hours ahead were about. A 40 min drive up to blue hill, met the loud, excited huskies . Though we’d no snow we where able to go on the wheeled run which was just as fun, fast. My sons enjoyed it as did my wife. Afterwards we made our way to a large watch tower overseeing the national park before a return journey back into Riga whist Jans offered us suggestions where to eat, things to see. Def worth an experience , would like to return again when they’ve snow fall.

Worth every penny!

The tour with Jans was absolutely fantastic. Worth every penny! The communication and pick up was great, Jans was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the huskies and the family who own them. The dogs were extremely happy and excited which was lovely to see, you get lots of time for strokes with them before the sled ride. The sled ride is so much fun and it was nice to learn abit about the family who compete in the sledding events. Ending with the wine tasting was a great touch! I would 100% recommend!!!

Wonderful Dog Sled Experience

Oskar was our guide, he was polite, knowledgable and engaging and spoke perfect English. This made the experience so much more than just the dog sled ride, as he was able to give as an insight into the recent history of Latvia, especially the transition from Soviet occupation, during the 1 hour car drive from Riga to the dog sled location. The dog sled ride was a wonderful experience if a little shorter than expected. It was great to be in control of the sled instead of just being a passenger. Following the sled ride Oskar took us to the delightful village of Ligatne where we visted the Winery, had a tasting session and were able to buy some excellent locally produced wine. We are so glad we took this trip and would say it is a must if you are visiting Riga. Thank you again Oskar for being such a great host.

Unmissable experience

Amazing experience from start to finish, lots of quality time spent with the beautiful dogs prior to a once in a lifetime experience to try our hand at sledging independently, also had the opportunity to climb to a beautiful viewing point over seeing the whole national park, massive shout out to our guide Oskars, who was extremely accommodating, finished off with some wonderful herbal tea, shots , homemade ginger biscuits and traditional Latvian cakes, this is a truly unmissable experience!

Amazing family day tour

We had an amazing time on the huskey tour! We were a big group - 8 adults and a 2 year old and our family all had a magical time. Our guide Oskars was so friendly and knowledgeable. The huskeys were so friendly and clearly well looked after, we then went to a beautiful winery. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!

Hero Jans

10/10 , great experience Very friendly people , quiet and remote + Jans gave us shots of the local drink balsam Sledding was top tier, let you mush your own sled and they are very knowledgeable about the dogs, After sledding Jans took us to a little village , showed us a cave system and then took us to a winery where we tried many different drinks Well worth the money , would recommend

Fun tour with the sleigh ride, the huskies and a walk

This was really a super fun activity! Our tourguide Jans arrived at our hotel exactly on time and it was a 40-minute drive to the Husky spot. We had to wait a bit long before it was our turn so put on very warm clothes but it was nice to see and pet the many huskies. The sled ride with the dogs is quite short, about 15 minutes but it is definitely long enough and super fun to do. The dogs go really fast, there are 6 and in between we drank some tea and ate some cookies. Afterwards we took a nice walk to a view tower. Jans sent us a very nice video of our trip afterwards. Recommended, this tour
