Unforgettable Husky Safari Adventure - The Rovaniemi Husky Safari Tour with Arctic GM was fantastic! The 6-10 km self-driving mushing was exciting and well-organized. The huskies were lively and well taken care of, and the guides were helpful and friendly. Thanks, Arctic GM, for an unforgettable adventure in Rovaniemi's snowy wonderland! Highly recommend!

Nice excursion, reliable agency and guides - We had three excursions with this company, all of them have been well organized and very pleasant. The third one has been the Husky tour. Our guide has been Chevo. The experience has been very funny! Chevo has been very friendly and he also suggested us a walking path to do after the tour in order to see some places in Rovaniemi. I would recommand this agency and their guides.

A "paw"-sitive time indeed! - This was such an awesome experience. You get to pet the huskies, ride the sled yourself, (fret not, safety & briefings were clearly given to all and the huskies are well trained), take turns with your partner in riding the sled and end the ride with warm drinks by the fire. Truly a recommended experience with Arctic GM! Thanks guys!

Awesome experience! - We had a great, beautiful husky ride, small-scale, no mass tourism, so it felt like we were almost alone. The nature was also beautiful there. Huskies look well cared for. Afterwards we warmed up by the fire with tea and sausage. And then some snow fun with sledding. Nina, our tour guide, was a nice, spontaneous woman who made the ride there and back pleasant. She told a lot and had positive energy.

Great great experience! - I did lots of research before booking with this company. I had read where it was a more personalized experience verses being shuffled around with bigger groups, and we were not disappointed!!! It felt very personalized, and there was just about 8 to 20 of us total. We had the best time. First off our guide, Marti, he was great. He made the experience so smooth. Even when we got there, he took such great care of us and made sure we were taken care of. The huskies were so friendly, and they were eager to go. It was so much fun. They gave us all the directions on what to do which was simple, and the huskies were great. Also, the forest they pull you through is beautiful!! It was really picturesque! After our trip we came back around a nice warm fire. We had berry juice and sausage. This was a top experience for us on our trip!

Super beautiful 😻 - Everything was just great! Our guide Sofias picked us up at the hotel on time and took us to the dogs within about 50 minutes :-) Everything was explained to us there - the trip was breathtakingly great :-) Afterwards we had sausages and marshmallows from the open fire in a traditional Finnish hut! Everything was perfect for my daughter and me :-)

Very nice day in Lapland - Beautiful day, huskies so cute, we really did enjoy this experience, however there was no bread provided for the sausage when we got some food so I didn’t eat at all.

Lovely experience with the huskies! - What a fantastic experience! I was a bit nervous at first as I'm 26 weeks pregnant and every other company kept saying their husky rides are not suitable for pregnant women. I did my own research into this and the main reason was because they can be a bit shaky and ofcourse the chance of an accident. I couldn't see anything on Arctic GMs site to say it was not suitable and also in my communications with them this did not seem an obstacle. I knew the tour was a self guiding one but I had requested for my husband and I to have a professional driver due to me being pregnant and was told this was not an issue. On the day of the tour we got picked up and after everyone was in the van we headed to the location. It was an hour drive from Rovaniemi so just something to bare in mind. When we got there we got given all the gear and guidance on how to drive the huskies. At this point i asked for our driver and they said they had not been notified of it and asked if my husband was OK to drive as it would take some time to set it up to have someone else drive us. I agreed to this and I'm so glad this happened. My husband loved driving the sled and I felt so safe. It was so smooth and not bumpy at all! Please don't be afraid to do this tour if you are pregnant! The dogs were adorable and so obedient. You could tell they love what they do. At the end we got to spend some time with the dogs and then had some warn apple juice and sausages before heading back. Our tour guide Amelia was so lovely and friendly!

TRULY THE BEST - We booked all our tours with Alex @ Arctic Gm Experiences oy and could not recommend this company and the team enough. Communication was very swift,efficient and personal from very first message ( and we exchanged a lot ). We did Northern light hunt ( even -26 did not stop them in their search for the Aurora), winter safari husky tour & frozen Korouoma waterfall trail with Arctic Gm experiences. Look no further, book it and you won't be dissappointed..!! All tours done in small groups, not rushed which makes it very private and persanal. Alex & Mou have been very friendly & helpful. Arctic Gm Experiences strive to give you the best experience possible. They truly made our dreams come true.. Loreta & Mark
