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.

Whale Watching Adventure in Akureyri
Perfect day
We had a beautiful sunny day and were able to see multiple whale sitings. Very appreciative that the guide took amazing pictures and shared them with us at no charge!

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.
