Dog cart-ride in Akureyri

Adorable fluffy experience

What a mega experience. Super friendly welcome of the owners and all the beautiful huskies. We made a wonderful ride through the woods, witnessing the dogs in their natural element and see what they love most. Running on and on! Afterwards a warm welcome into the home and a view of the daily life with huskies. We got to cuddle with all of them, they are soo sweet. We could really feel the love and care both Gunnar and Maria have for them all.

Private Dog Sledding in Akureyri

A truly special husky experience

GoHusky was easily one of our favourite experiences in Iceland. from the moment we arrived, Gunnar and Maria made us feel very welcome, and meeting their gorgeous huskies was unforgettable. Each one has such a wonderful personality and it was obvious how loved and well cared for they are. Exploring the beautiful Icelandic scenery with the dogs, away from the crowds, felt incredibly special. Ending the adventure with hot chocolate, husky cuddles and time chatting with Gunnar and Maria made it even more memorable. We left with huge smiles and some very special memories. If you're visiting Akureyri, we couldn't recommend goHusky more highly.

Iceland: See & Experience it ALL in 9 Days, 1st Class Custom Tours

Go with Salty Tours in Iceland

This is the second time we have utilized the services of Salty Tours. Thor, our guide, knows and loves Iceland. The two days we spent with him were well-paced and full of amazing sights and narratives. He was considerate of my needs and those of my 12-yr-old granddaughter. 5 stars!
