Arctic Husky Adventure In Rovaniemi

The husky sleigh ride in Rovaniemi was nothing short of enchanting! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and explained everything clearly. Gliding through the pristine snow-covered forests under the Arctic sky felt like stepping into a winter wonderland. The husky’s were gentle and well cared for, and the pace of the ride was perfect for soaking in the breathtaking scenery. We even had a chance to learn about the how to dogs lived throughout the year, which added a special touch to the experience. Warm drinks by the fire afterward were the perfect ending. Highly recommend this for anyone visiting Lapland—it’s pure magic!

The husky ride was brilliant But some of the staff was rude It was like a conveyor belt to get people in and out

We got warm clothes suitable for very cold weather and headed to a husky farm. Our driver was very friendly and told us many things about the city and people living here. The dogs are used to human contact and are very friendly too. After petting of the puppies there was a dogsledding ride in pairs with changing of the driver if you wanted to. It was a remarkable experience. After the ride, we got hot tea and gingerbread cookies.

Their 7-10km husky ride through the forest ended up being 1.2km around the husky farm. Initially they emailed and said due to lack of snow (there was snow as far as the eye could see) they would reduce to 5km at no discount. Disappointed but accepted the offer. Then two days before they said it would be a 2km ride due to no snow, even though it had snowed and didn't mention it wasn't in a forest. They said we had a 24 hr cancellation notice period. So we scrambled to find another one. Unfortunately we only found another one that did the full 7km forest ride the morning of the tour. So we tried to cancel but they were completely unapologetic and said no. They offered a measly EUR30 discount. So along we went - we ended up at the husky farm at Santa's Village (no forest) with jaded grumpy drivers and literally rode for 1.2km - 5mins. I timed on my Garmin. The guide tried to pad it out, but it was the most expensive, pathetic experience. And we never received the discount. Even if they are the last tour available - avoid at all costs. They will rip you off to no end. They have no shame.

We thoroughly enjoyed this experience - the feeling of standing behind a sledge and getting to drive it is unparalleled! The tour started on time, and our guide was polite and informative. BTW. please note that while the tour includes winder overalls, it doesn't include boots.

Our small group was combined with a very large group and we could never really go very fast. I had my foot on the break the whole time because I was at the end of the line and someone in the front was very large and the dogs carrying him had to go very slowly. On the other hand, it is worth dog sledding in general (the dogs were great and it was beautiful). I wish we had done a private tour.

The husky sleigh experience was amazing, I thought driving it would be so scary but turns out fine and fun. With the operator they provide winter clothes to ensure we are warm. In the end of the husky experience there is a QA session you can ask all the questions.

Must do experience… the sledge dogs were great & eager to run always.. very disciplined & friendly to pet.. the sledge skiing was easy to adapt..

Great dogs and amazing experience but there was a mixup with the groups so there were too many of us which led to a slower and more annoying experience as you got held up by the people in front of you…. Also a big nono was the driver. On the way back he was calling and texting not looking at the road, don’t do that as a professional driver, it was dangerous and unresponsible…. Big minus

The dog are awesome! Nice kennel, beautiful drive with sled and finish with some information about the dogs. We love the expiriance!

The landscape was so beautiful & the huskies were to die for, already miss them!! Loved cuddeling with them. We would do it again!

It was an amazing experience with a very informative and good spirited guide. The huskies were by far the stars of the show. We had alot of fun and we would highly recommend it to anyone.

I booked a husky safari months in advance of my trip to Finland. My trip was cancelled for no reason by the tour operator. Had to quickly find another tour operator. Not a stable company, do not recommend!

Die Organisation Northern Future OY ist nur zu empfehlen. Wir hatten einen super Guide aus China der sich wirklich sehr bemüht hat und Mega nett war. Die Kleidung die man bekommt ist sehr gut und hält warm. Generell ist es gut geplant. Bei uns hatte es über Nacht unerwartet sehr viel Schnee und unser eigentliche Guide ist stecken geblieben aber es war kein Problem und wir hatten einen reibungslosen Ablauf. Bei der Farm angekommen wurde alles etwas chaotisch es ist dort nur darauf ausgelegt Geld zu machen. Der Schlitten wurde nur kurz erklärt und dann ging es los. Der führer ist mit einem Quad voraus gefahren und wir sollten hinterher. Das Problem des ganzen der Hundeschlitten vor uns hatte sehr schwache Hunde und es saßen drei Erwachsene und ein Kind darin. Domi haben die Hunde es nicht geschafft und der Mann der hinten gelenkt hat musste die ganze Zeit mittendrin. Sehr schade für die Hunde und ihn da er ja auch den vollen Preis gezahlt hat und danach echt nassgeschwitzt war. Für uns war es echt doof da unsere Hunde trotz ständigem auf der Bremse stehen immer an dem Schlitten davor vorbei wollten, da die viel stärker waren. Wir mussten somit nur bremsen was wirklich schade war. Als wir wieder bei der Farm ankamen und unsere Runde gedreht hatten (die keinesfalls mehr auf 4km war und nicht länger als 25 min dauerte) sagten der führer das es vorbei ist. Wir waren ganz entsetzt, da wir noch keine Fahrer getauscht hatten. Er sagte er hätte mehrmals gefragt und keiner hat gesagt er will tauschen. Jedoch wurde keiner aus unserer Gruppe gefragt. Nach langem disskutieren wurden wir damit abgespeist die Short Runde zu fahren also wir beide im Schlitten und einer von der Organisation hinten der gefahren ist. Immerhin etwas aber schade da wir beide fahren wollten und dafür gezahlt haben. Trotzdem war es ein Mega Erlebnis und der Guide von dieser Organisation hat uns bei allem geholfen. Immer wieder! Vielen Dank

I recommend this small agency of Rovaniemi, Maria, who replies super fast to WhatsApp... and DAVID who was our guide. I've chosen the huskies tour, but we made toooodas with them. Auroras, rackets, auroras and huskies. Excellent photos in all. Very very willing before, during and after each excursion. He was great with our kids, and he was very patient. He gave us recommendations of places to go, to see,... it was a real pleasure.

Well organized. In the agency you could borrow the winter clothes, then we went as a small group to the Huskyfarm. Approx. 45-minute round trip with the husky sled, which we were allowed to steer ourselves. Then tea, biscuits and information about animals.

We have had an incredible experience in our tours with this company, especially thanks to the guide David, who has accompanied us on the 3 excursions we have done and has behaved with us exceptionally. Thank you very much David for this unforgettable trip. (The family of Granada)

Belle expérience, beaux paysages, facile, par contre trop de traîneaux à la fois !! Ça fait un peu usine, bon rapport qualité/prix

Great experience!! The husky are adorable is full of energy, you can see that they are excited and happy to sledge. The walk in the forest is quite long, and far from the center.
