The most memorable part was the sled trip with our own dogs - magical - out there in the wilderness with a dog team.

Superb. Wouldn't change anything at all (not even the outside loos in -25deg C, all part of the experience and gave us lots of laughs!).

Working with the huskies on our 2 day wilderness safari was amazing. A once in a lifetime experience and Raika, the husky guide was brilliant!

A great holiday experience. The tour operators, and tour guides, made a very hostile environment (Finland cross country skiing) feel safe and enjoyable. The tour guides were especially knowledgeable about the area, and worked tirelessly to make this an excellent holiday for the clients.

We traveled to northern Sweden in search of the Northern Lights. We stayed at Abisko which had the nicest group of people staying there that we could have wished for. Everything ran smoothly, the food was great and loved the whole trip.

The husky sledging was amazing and we also got to see the northern lights we did something nearly everyday and enjoyed every minute, went to the ice hotel you can't really explain in words how pretty the scenery is you have to go and see it to believe it.

Lapland is magical and inspiring. It is an extraordinary place to get away to. I would recommend this holiday to anybody, youngsters or grown ups, couples or family, there is something for everyone from not so active holiday makers to thrill seekers.

Absolutely fantastic. I can't wait to go again, and this time I would definitely go for longer. I want to go back this time next year, for a week with a few close friends. LOVED LOVED LOVED IT.

Excellent! We managed to pack in a taster of most activities during our 4 day stay and found time to explore on our own too. Jeris Hotel where we stayed is friendly, comfortable, welcoming and is in the most beautiful setting on the lakeside.

Ingrid, the instructor, was fantastic... The snow conditions and weather were perfect, and the trails varied and interesting. The hotel was great, very friendly staff and very comfortable, and the food was plentiful and well prepared.

Amazing - one of the best we have ever had. The different activities each day and information given on culture and history were fantastic. It was lovely to be somewhere so spoilt and quiet.

The most exciting was the husky sleigh... We also loved our Christmas Eve meal at our hotel and the warm, family atmosphere.

In the past we have always downhill skied, but this time we decided to try cross country skiing having never done it before. It took a short while to learn the basics and by the end of the week we were able to complete a cross country journey - with no broken bones!

The dogs are just incredible... athletic, fascinating to watch, and beautiful. Our guide Laird was fantastic as were all the other people at the ranch... I had a fabulous time. Pushed my limits... this has been 'one' of the best holidays I have been on.

We all had a fantastic time and have many wonderful memories. The service at the ice hotel was more than expected... It was one, if not the best holiday we have had. I would definitely book a holiday with you again and also do this type of holiday again. Thank you for all the help you have given us.

FANTASTIC! Ingrid made sure that everyone in the group made progress, was included and was enjoying themselves, a real "knack" considering the diversity of the group.

The whole experience was very memorable and exciting, from arriving at Ivalo airport in - 30 c, the accommodation at the Husky Lodge is very special, the dogs amazing and the mushing both adrenalin bursting and tranquil. This holiday was a 'once in a lifetime' except that we will do it again!

The most memorable part was snow shoeing on a beautiful sunny Christmas Day and completing our first Via Ferrata.

The whole trip was a combination of uplifting, exciting, experiences which left us feeling invigorated even after our return home. I particularly enjoyed the dog sledding.
