Snowmobile Tour in Alta - Had booked this tour at short notice and are still completely impressed and enthusiastic about this tour. Stig speaks very good German and English and was a super tour guide. Perfect Orfa and execution. I can only recommend it.

Fantastic independently booked snowmobiling experience - We can’t recommend this tour enough! My wife and I booked the tour independently whilst on a cruise to see the northern lights. Stig, the owner picked us up and dropped us off at the cruise terminal in Alta even though we were his only two clients that day. All necessary clothing was provided as it was -8
My wife and I shared a snowmobile for 2.5 hours and Stig provided us with hot chocolate and cinnamon buns half way through. Stig’s obvious love of the outdoors and knowledge shone through and he was great and easy company. After the trip he took us to where the ice hotel (not included) is situated and then with his wife went home to see his two huskies including Windy (born during a storm!) who was just 9 weeks old and adorable.
All in all I would highly recommend this trip - very easy to book and much better value than a tour organised by the cruise line.

Wonderful experience ! - We had a wonderful time riding through the pristine landscape of Finnsmarksvidda. Really beautiful landscape and even the changeable weather from snow to bright sunshine to cloudy skies made the ride even more interesting. Thank you to Stig, our guide, for a fantastic excursion.

Incredibly beautiful tour & very well organized! - Incredibly great tour! Very well planned all around. We were picked up directly at the harbor. Our guides (one even spoke German) were super nice. We first discussed the route and then warm clothes, shoes, helmets & gloves. Then we went to the starting point of the tour, where we were briefly instructed on how to operate the snowmobile. We were able to see beautiful landscapes on the tour, took a break on a frozen lake and drove to a viewing platform. In between there was hot cocoa and cinnamon rolls for everyone.
At our request we were dropped off in the city center after the tour instead of at the harbor.
All around an incredibly great experience and we can only recommend this provider and the tour to everyone! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great tour - While we were definitely the oldest couple in the group and we had never been on a snowmobile before, my husband found it easier than he anticipated to drive. Sig was very attentive to the group, always making sure everyone was following and had no trouble. We were provided with very warm gear so there was no getting cold. He led us to a frozen lake and eventually to the plateau. The scenery was gorgeous! I highly recommend this tour.

Great experience - Very recommended, our guide Stig was a very nice and caring guide. The group was very small (4 people), so we spent a long time riding over the Finnmarksvidda plateau. We had a great time!

well and enjoyable guided tour. unforgettable - Lovely tour to Finnmarskidda plateau. Too windy to progrees throughout th plateau in such bad and harsh conditions, so the guide decided to detour to forested area where we could enjoy riding the snowmobiles.
