The husky tour is probably my favourite but I enjoyed the Northern Lights, the snowmobile, the snowshoeing, the cross country skiing, the ice hotel, the reindeer!! (more)Sharn Gill

Every day was an adventure, so difficult to single one experience out really, but I'll go for the husky sledding. We expected someone else to be driving - controlling the dogs yourself (though I use the word "control" in the loosest sense) was utterly exhilarating. The accommodation and surroundings were fabulous too. (more)Jonathan Green

The trip to the wilderness cabin was great fun. Really enjoyable to be able to spend the night out there.

He went the extra mile to adjust things to suit the mix of people on the tour and local conditions. (more)Christopher Lynch

Memorable parts? Seeing the Northern lights. Tips? Book it, it’s fantastic, but layer your clothes. Local benefits? Yes. Overall rating? 10 out of 10. (more)Christine Downie

Memorable parts? The whole holiday was just amazing. I loved being able to explore the vast, white wilderness which was just the most quiet and peaceful place I have ever been. Doing this via snowmobiles, skis, snowshoes and huskies was very special. Seeing the aurora twice during our stay, with a dancing, swirling light show on our last aurora camp, has to go down as one of our most memorable and special moments of our stay. I also need to mention the very friendly and knowledgeable guides,... (more)Angela Hancock

Memorable parts? The cabin at the Russian end was an amazing experience. Rustic, lovely to unwind without electricity and technology. Tips? Be prepared for a lot of pushing your bike.

Memorable parts? Husky ride. Tips? Local benefits? We hope that it helps the Sami people preserve their livelihoods. Overall rating? Magical. Very well organised. (more)Iris Cohen usher

Memorable parts? I loved the Autumn colours; walking with the reindeer and learning about and experiencing the local culture and food. The aurora dome was very special ... a must do on the tour!! I just loved everything to be honest. The staff and guides are fantastic. Nothing is too much for them. Tips? Don't go just to see the northern lights because you may not be lucky enough to see them - but there is so much more to this tour/destination that makes it an amazing experience.... (more)Jeanette O

Memorable parts? Aurora and husky safari Tips? Take plenty of thermals. Local benefits? Not sure. The guides certainly had knowledge about the local environment. Overall rating? Very enjoyable. Would perhaps have been nice to have had an extra day to explore or even rest as it felt very “full on” and was tiring, and although I would not have wanted to miss any of the evening activities, an evening just relaxing would have been nice. The staff were helpful, Nina was... (more)Daryl Halsey

Memorable parts? Seeing the kids sledging on proper snow! Tips? Take single use hand warmers with you and use them in your shoes too!! Local benefits?

Memorable parts? Seeing the most awesome display of the Aurora Borealis on New Year's Eve! How lucky were we? This was the icing on the cake, following four days of exhilarating activities. Tips? It's a fair walk from the lake and hotel to the larger cabins and some activities can be slightly tiring, so make sure you are comfortable in what you are wearing and have some energy! If you wear glasses, take contact lenses. Local benefits? Yes, apart from the snowmobile engines Overall... (more)Jeannette Middleton
