Reviewed By sonjar491 - Paris, France

We did a 3-hour snowmobile tour in the evening from 20-23h and it was great fun. The night was too cloudy to see northern lights but we knew this beforehand and it was still a great experience. We drove into the snowy forest and stopped by at a cottage to warm up, drink juice and eat some corn (or sausages for those who want). Going in the night is quite magical and there was no one else around as I think in the day time the area is also used for husky and reindeer trails. Snowmobiling was easy to learn and my mother could sit behind me as she didn't want to drive herself. We were picked up and dropped off from our guesthouse in the city so transport was very easy.

We booked a 4 hour snow mobile tour around Levi and enjoyed every minute! Our guide Kristyna showed us how to use the snow mobile as neither of us had ridden one before. (It was so easy to drive) We luckily didn’t have anybody else booked on our tour so had a private tour with just the two of us. We really enjoyed the whole experience, Kristyna was lovely, really chatty and friendly when we stopped to take pictures and have snacks. She made the whole time really enjoyable. We saw some beautiful scenery and took some amazing photos. Would really recommend this tour if you want to have more time on the snow mobiles.

Extreme Huskies

Reviewed By maddie_nu

We had an amazing time with the huskies! The dogs are amazing and eager to run. They seem to be very well looked after and like family. Petteri did a fantastic job instructing us and it was a blast to be a musher for the day. There were a few stops where he took pictures of all the participants with their doggos. Extreme Huskies also does a perfect job when it comes to the customers needs. They were informed beforehand that I was vegetarian and gluten free, but I let them know that I could take my own food as I didn’t want them to be bothered with my issues and my choice to be a veggie. They told me that it wasn’t a problem - and it really wasn’t. There was vegetable soup and even gluten free bread. Kudos to Petteri for handing me the butter first, because he wanted to make sure I wouldn’t get glutened if someone else used the butter knife first! Very very thoughtful! We can wholeheartedly recommend Extreme Huskies!
