Overview
This four-hour tour in Tromso begins with private transportation from the city to the husky kennel, where guests meet about 130 Alaskan Huskies. After a safety briefing and training on how to control the sled, participants work in pairs to drive their own sleds pulled by teams of 5 to 6 huskies. An experienced guide leads the group of up to 20 guests along the trail through the Arctic wilderness.

After the sledding, the group gathers inside a traditional Lavvu tent to enjoy cake and a warm drink such as tea or coffee. All necessary warm clothing, including Arctic thermal suits and snow boots, is provided. Children aged 7 and older may participate but must share a sled with a parent. A basic level of fitness is required. Guests are advised to bring their own cameras to capture the experience.
