Guided husky ride through Arctic trails

After a safety briefing, suit up in thermal overalls and set off on your husky ride in Tromso. Glide across snow-covered landscapes under the stars, with your sled led by a team of enthusiastic huskies. Guides accompany each group, ensuring a safe and authentic experience.

Traditional Norwegian dinner

Back at the camp, unwind by a crackling fire and enjoy a traditional Norwegian dinner. Dishes often feature local ingredients like reindeer stew or fish soup, served in a warm cabin atmosphere. It’s the perfect way to recharge after your Arctic adventure.

Northern lights viewing at a remote camp

End your evening outdoors, watching the aurora dance across the night sky. The remote location makes this one of the best chances to witness the aurora borealis during your Tromso dog sledding northern lights experience.

Although I was skeptical about taking a tour on a bus with 50 people, I can say that my experience was absolutely wonderful. We arrived not far from Tromsø, but the view was breathtaking—both the landscape and the aurora borealis, which kept us company throughout the entire tour. The tea and cookies before heading back were a nice touch.

We went to a beautiful location, extremely well organised, Margot, our guide was amazing, seating, campfire, hot chocolate and hotdogs by the fire, even a heated tent for a loo was great for the girls. Never to be forgotten. First Class tour. Whilst seeing the lights cannot be guaranteed the arrangements, location and guide were superb. Bonus, we saw an amazing display of lights which continued for 2 - 3 hours and then safely delivered back to our accomodation by the guide and her great driver, Gregor who also worked hard to set up and clear camp in double quick time at the end of the evening, to get us all on our way back to Tromso.

Feeding the reindeer and the reindeer-sled ride were absolutely fantastic — definitely the highlights of the day. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to see the Northern Lights. The stories about Sámi culture were really interesting, and the traditional meal was nice as well, but it wasn’t a three-course dinner as advertised — we received a hot drink, some biscuits, and the main dish.
