The holiday met or exceeded our expectations on all levels. However a small caveat - we have done this sort of holiday before so knew what to expect. I am going to give it 5 stars but that does not mean 5 star luxury!! (more)Allison Bucknell
Seeing the Northern Lights, husky sledging, snowshoeing were the most memorable parts of the holiday. (more)Mary Lewis
Difficult to go for one thing as it was all very memorable and exciting... If pushed I would say that one of the most memorable single events was being in the forest with Petri and his reindeer. (more)Jane Sargant

The dog sledding was the most memorable. (more)James Harrison
The glass igloo and the Aurora restaurant was the highlight of the trip. We got to enjoy a few hours of clear night sky and a full moon before the clouds came over, and whilst we didn't get to see the northern lights, it was still fantastic. (more)Jodie Potts
The food, northern lights and the moose sightings, also the friendly and most hosptialable reception from all the staff. And oh the accommodation, so warm, clean and stylish with amazing views.

Amazing and a lifetime full of memories...The 2 day husky safari was amazing spending time in the winter wilderness with the huskies was tiring but worth the effort and you just fell in love and admired the dogs by the end of your trip (more)Tim Astwood
The most memorable part of the holiday was: Snowmobile, over night husky safari... We had an amazing experience. (more)Janelle Kavanagh
It was a dream come true. The 2 days Husky Safary and Snowmobiling were my favorite but probably only because the Reindeer trip was too short
and did not have time to really appreciate it. (more)Silvia Moschetti

One of the best trips I have been on. Very well organized and the guides were very good. (more)Dan Cashman
It is difficult to single out one particular aspect of this most memorable holiday. The landscape was stunning from the snow-covered vastness and tranquility
to the clear unpolluted skies where the colours were vivid and pure by day and revealed so many stars at night along with the magnificent Aurora displays. (more)Janet Morris

Memorable parts?
There were so many good memories it is hard to choose just one. Cross country skiing, snow shoeing, walking in the mountains, sledging, scenery, hot chocolate, Slovakian dumplings.
Tips?
Take a travel kettle and some tea bags (nothing in the rooms so not so easy to make a flask for taking out for the day)
Local benefits?
I think it benefited the local people and we used bus or tram wherever possible (if we couldn't walk).
Overall rating?
Excellent.... (more)Rosemary Morton

Excellent - we were so sad to have to come home! (more)Sarah Williams
The reindeer trip, the snow shoe walks and the cross-country skiing on the beautiful frozen lake were all highlights, as was the pristine snow in such an unspoilt location.

From
€1,398

The husky dog sledding, the ice climb, the snowshoeing itself, being out in such a beautiful environment! And our companions too - the other four people in the party were lovely, and we all got on very well together - enough in common to bond yet different enough for good conversation!
(more)Angela Dennison
In terms of the most exciting part, it has to be the ice climbing...not part of our original plans but I'm so glad it was suggested. Slow down and enjoy your stay in what really is an undiscovered part of the Alps. (more)Norma Sherratt
Well organized, interesting, hassle free and great fun- the ideal introduction to the activities. (more)Matt Hannah

Amazing. I would recommend it to anyone keen to get away from it all and be outdoors. More snow than you will ever have seen and you won’t get cold - 4 layers of clothes 4 pairs of socks and gloves and two hats toasty warm (more)Alison Rayner
Excellent range of activities, and good value when you look at what was included. The local guides were excellent. Would give more than 5 stars if allowed. (more)Adam Choonara

The dog sledding was fantastic fun with a back drop of stunning scenery. The most memorable event was the incredible Northern Light display we were lucky enough to see on our last evening. Over an hour of swirling, dancing pink and green lights was breath taking. Truly unforgettable. (more)Linda Reed
Each of the five days was memorable in its own way. The evening walk from Mefjord Brygge up to the hut for the Northern Lights safari was special as the lights were particularly impressive that evening. Equally driving huskies through the beautiful winterwonderland was also hard to beat. We also loved the boat trip around the fjord, although there are no whales, as the herrings have moved elsewhere.

Very good....Swishing through the forest in a blizzard with head torches in the dark on the back of a speeding dog sled. (more)Anne Blagden

We really enjoyed the bicycle tour through green spaces around the edges of Helsinki. It was definitely off the beaten tourist track. Our guide was informative and delightful. We loved the evening boat trip to a tiny island west of Turku. (more)Diane Banner

The husky safari was amazing. Truly memorable with a lifetime full of memories. (more)Srikanth Murthi
The most memorable was all the snow and ice activities - husky sledding, ice fishing, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobile driving - were great. So different from what you can do in London! Would have been even better if the Northern lights had appeared while we were there but that's not under anyone's control. (more)Mark Harris

It was all amazing! Working with the dogs was a highlight of course, they are incredible. But also the way the trip was put together; our guide was fantastic, and the whole ranch team were wonderful and really went out of their way to make things tick. The landscape just takes your breath away and makes you glad to be alive and privileged to be there. (more)Jill Dobbie

different dogs and getting to know their different personalities. They are such
great workers and I miss them now I am back home. (more)Ali Barned
