“We had an excellent time snow mobiling with our guide Brent. He was super friendly, very knowledgable and we feel he went above and beyond for our party on The Twilight Snowmobile Tour, he even arranged free transportation back to our accommodation when the trio ran over time. It was absolutely freezing and we didn’t see the lights but we loved the trip and his dedication regardless. Highly recommend the tour and him as a guide!”

The meal is good, portion is very small though. We are able to feed the reindeer but there’s no reindeer sleigh ride which I thought I have.
