Wow what a fantastic day. The guys were absolutely superb and the snowmobiles were top notch. The surroundings were so beautiful and the fish soup once were done was lovely. We were really looked after from start to finish. We can't wait to come back and join in this adventure again but during the night to chase the lights. Thanks again for a wonderful day !!

I have gone snowmobiling before in Finland, but it was nothing like this incredible experience. First of all, the Lyngen Alps which is the setting for the ride might just be the most beautiful place on earth. The guides were really friendly and knowledgable - and given I was on my own and the rest of the small group all knew each other and mainly spoke French, they looked after me and paid special attention to me which was nice! The snowmobiling was an amazing experience and they were all very well looked after and clearly well maintained. But perhaps the best thing about this was their friendly dogs Freya the Border Collie and Quill the Husky. They were the most gorgeous and friendly dogs ever and getting to play with them before and after the snow mobiling was great!

We enjoyed our stay very much: deep snow, beautiful mountains, warm and cosy cabin. We could see the Northern Lights from the patio. The village is very quiet, it's a perfect place for relaxing. Definitely would like to go back
