The experience
You arrive at the Safari office where the guide fits you with winter gear (overalls, boots, balaclava, gloves and helmet), and walks you through snowmobile safety. Then you ride for approximately one hour through the snowy Lapland landscape, either solo or sharing the machine depending on the option you choose at checkout. The route follows the wilderness terrain the region is known for, and the guide leads the way.
After the snowmobile portion, you're driven to an authentic husky farm where you'll ride behind a team of sled dogs. This is not a self-drive experience: a handler manages the dogs while you sit in the sleigh for a 5-kilometer run. The farm visit gives you time around the animals and the working setup before and after the ride itself.
The tour wraps with gingerbread and hot blueberry juice back at the office before you're dropped at your hotel. The whole experience takes 4.5 hours from pickup to return. Departure times shift with the season, so the local provider will email you the exact pickup window once you book. A minimum group size applies: at least 2 people on weekdays and Saturdays, at least 4 on Sundays and public holidays.
Is this one for you?Book this tour if you want to try two different winter activities in one afternoon without arranging transport or equipment yourself. The guide handles the snowmobile route and the husky farm logistics, so you show up with your license and step into both experiences back-to-back.
