“The location was about 30 mins from the office, where we met. It was a nice, beginner-friendly hike, even kids could do it. We went to a tipi, where we had options, either stay there with the tour guide or go for a walk (I choose this). The forest is beautiful with the trees covered in fresh snow. I recommend wearing waterproof shoes and skiing pants because sometimes we sank deep into the snow. After we went back to the tipi, where the guide prepared hot chocolate/tea and sausages at the fire (they had vegetarian option too). The tour guide was very friendly, and also told us some interesting informations…”

“We went on this adventure as a family of 4, with two boys aged 7 and 9. It was the highlight of our holiday. There was a total of 6 persons in our group plus the guide.

So many things are included in this adventure that you get a full taste of the arctic life. We recommend it.”
