We went to Arctic Husky Farm on 4th of january with my partner and it was our first time to get to know to their habits. Huskys were looking well, healthy and very humane. Our guide was very professional. She was friendly and taught us how to ride sledge properly. We even got to see husky puppies and got some hot juice to warm ourselves. I hoped the ride itself would had been longer considering the cost. After all this experience was very good and I would recommend it for anyone.…

We rented three e-fatbikes for a few hours and had a really nice experience. Bikes were completely new and well equipped - they have everything you need.

Review of: Husky Safari from Luosto - 10 KM
Amazing experience! Booked easily on-line for my wife, 7-year-old and myself. Lapland Safaris Office only a 5-minute walk from Luosto Hotel where we were staying. Only the three of us on this safari, so very personal experience. Drive to the Arctic Husky Farm was very informative chatting to our driver. On arrival, met our sled dog guide - Anouska from the Netherlands - who briefed us on the sled, dogs and the day’s events. The 10Km ride through the forest was brilliant; Anouska was out in front on a snowmobile, so we had all the privacy we would want on the sled, just us and the guide. Great laugh, beautiful scenery and what a work-out! You do need to be prepared for some physical exertion when steering and assisting the dogs going uphill! You can swap drivers half-way, but the wife didn't want to. After the ride, we got shown throughout the kennels and got to meet some lovely husky pups - my daughters favourite part - then sat down with Anouska and our driver for a Q&A session - Anouska was very knowledgeable in the care of these dogs. It was obvious she had a genuine love for her job and these animals. There are around 20 Siberian and 200 Alaskan Huskies on this farm and it is very evident that they are all extremely well looked after, no chains or leash; they are free to go crazy with each other in their own caged area (2 dogs / cage, each has own kennel) - the interaction / respect between these very friendly dogs and their handlers is amazing - well worth the visit.…

Review of: Husky Safari from Luosto - 10 KM
Its not cheap, indeed.. but its a must do in our view!! The organizers are friendly, helpful.. you receive even winter overals and boots/socks/hat.. even if you have own material. A bus takes you to the actual Husky Farm itself (which didn't appear to be directly bookable'.. only 5 minutes away. They explain the workings at the farm, plenty of questions answered and look like they really take care of the animals (a must in my book else avoid). Good explanation and easy to use sled ride and our Teenagers took over (switch places) half way in the tour (10KM).The ride itself is fantastic and the dogs are adorable/friendly and like a 'thank you pat' at the end with some pics taken. It may feel a bit short.. count about an hour to do the actual ride of 10KM itself.. yet for some this will suffice as such an experience never to forget. Only constructive criticism is that I would have preferred a bit of a split in 'speed' between 'slow going folks' and 'more adventurous ones' to avoid 'bottlenecks' on the ride (a lot of braking).…

Review of: Husky Safari from Luosto - 10 KM
We have done a number of trips this week with these guys including husky dog sledding and cross country skiing - all well organised, no fuss over giving you the right gear and equipment (which you can keep and use for your entire stay) and we’ll trained, friendly guides. We loved the husky ride, the dogs are great, the scenery beautiful and the trip was just the right length for us. Highly recommended!…
