Reviews about Best Arctic
If you are on the fence about doing their Dog Sledding tour, DO IT!!! This was the best thing we did on our trip (...) They teach you how to drive your own husky sled with a partner and you actually take turns driving your own team (...) and they are just so happy to be with you and getting exercise! (...) This trip made my bucket list and is one we’ll never forget!
We went on the Aurora safari on minibus and husky safari and both experiences were unforgettable! The tours ran smoothly from start to end and our guides - especially Chen on the aurora safari was very enthusiastic and informative which was greatly appreciated!
Honestly one of the best companies to book northern lights tours like ever (...) our tour guides Anastasia and Max were extremely lovely and very helpful.
A wonderful aurora tour! I joined this tour on the 23rd and will never forget it. I even captured the three colors of the aurora! I thoroughly enjoyed the trip.
