Vår guide Saara gav oss tydliga instruktioner och ledde oss genom en eftermiddagstur som uppskattades av alla i aprilsolen. Draghundarnas välmående prioriteras högt och umgänget med dem är en lika stor upplevelse som själva slädturen. Att efteråt gosa med de supersöta Husky-valparna var såklart barnens höjdpunkt.

Great place, fantastic routes, the dogs are amazing, truly the ride of your life. I can't wait to go back

It became the highlight of our entire vacation. We still feel the same excitement and energy while mentioning it to everyone we know!

The hosts were super nice, the travel guide who drove us to the kennel, the person responsible for the clothes etc. and of course our tour guide. The most happiest part was to see the lovely dogs, all so eager to just run into the wilderness. The moment we stopped in between for a warm tea and tasty cinnamon buns, the dogs got so restless as they just wanted to continue run.

We also compliment the entire team involved for taking such a super nice care of the dogs and loving them like a family!

Special shout out to the owner: you have made such lovely trails that we just couldn't stop appreciating it throughout the tour and even after that :) It shows the hardwork and the passion you put for the work :) read less

Didn’t get to see the northern lights on the tour, unfortunately (they did appear much later in the night though), but did see the stunning forests by moonlight. The dogs are well trained and extremely well cared for and at the same time very friendly and enjoyed being petted. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. It really was a once in a lifetime experience and I’m pleased I did it with a reputable company that cares for the dogs. read less

We were picked up from the IceHotel and driven to Husky Tours where we were given all-in-one warm suits, boots, mittens, and warm hats. How to drive the sled was explained well and we could ask questions to make sure we understood. We followed our guide who had his own team of dogs so all we had to do was brake at the right time. The tour itself was an incredible way to see the beautiful landscape, and great fun. Our guide kept checking we were OK and were warm enough. Once we arrived back at the kennels, we helped feed and unharness the dogs which was a fun way to get to know our dogs a little better! After that we warmed up by a fire with tea/coffee and kanelbullar (cinnamon buns). This also gave us the chance to ask the very friendly guides about the dogs, and it seemed like they were genuinely very well cared-for. Finally, we played with some of the puppies before returning our warm outer layers and being driven back to Kiruna. Overall, I would thoroughly recommend this!

My tips: Dress as warmly as possible - we were wearing our warmest clothes for northern Sweden underneath all the extra layers we were given and we were still cold! In particular, make sure you have something to cover your face and ideally, wear contact lenses rather than glasses - they'll steam up. The person sitting can take a few photos but don't expect to be able to take loads, partly because the cold is bad for camera batteries, and partly because you won't want to remove the outer mittens for long!

Dog-sledding had been a long term dream of mine and this definitely fulfilled my expectations. read less

After an introduction we were allowed to harness the dogs ourselves and went off into the woods. It was a magical experience! The whole team was amazing and answered all our questions.

Although the snow wasn't thick enough to do snow shoe hiking (luckily), we had plenty to do. The guides would stop at different areas to introduce the environment to us and we barbecued marshmallows and got to drill our own holes for ice fishing. We ended the tour with a visit to the kennel with the puppies and a warm lunch by the fire in a tent. The guides were friendly and very helpful. Would definitely recommend them read less

We had our own sled and the dogs were friendly and enthusiastic. Fun also to feed them and help doing the whole job with the guide. Theo was our guide and answered all our 1000 questions. We learned a lot about the dogs and his work. The overnight was just great, in a cozy chalet in the middle of nowhere with candles for lighting us and a wood stove to warm the chalet up. I recommend it 100%, definitely! read less

I spent a week with Husky Tours in the wilderness as part of a Charity Challenge group, learning to drive and care for the dogs. Kent and Jordana run the family business and their young boys also get in on the act, the whole team were extremely welcoming and helpful and gave us an insight to a different, fantastic life in the wilderness. The dogs are well looked after and love to run. We were also well looked after with plenty hot food and drink plus a few wee treats. It is an amazing place to get out and experience the outdoor life with a very knowledgeable team. read less

My wife and I had a 6 dog team on our sled that just wanted to go all the time, I am sure that they could have kept running for hours. Being well away from Kiruna made it nice as we were on our own in the forest which was great. But for us the highlight of the tour was being with the dogs at the end and feeding them and then unharnessing them and taking them back to their kennels and then getting to see the puppies and interacting with the great team of people working with the dogs. Just brilliant, cant recommend this tour and the company highly enough. read less

Because of the wheather we had to take the cart instead of the sled. But it really was awesome to be out in the nature with the carts and the dogs running in front of you. It was a real adventure and so much fun. The dogs were super cute and you could cuddle, harness, unharness and feed them. We had a great guide, a little fika and could cuttle also the small dogs. All in all it really was a perfect day for us and we would love to come back one day.
Thank you for everything and please go ahead with your work. read less
