Snow Dogs runs sightseeing day tours in North Iceland, Reykjavík, starting from Laugar, Akureyri. We book them directly, so what you see here is their own availability and their own cancellation policy — at the same price you'd pay them.
“Snow Dogs is a family buisiness including a group of about 35 Siberian Husky sled dogs that love to play. They live in our open kennel with our Icelandic local family on a farm close to Lake Mývatn, North Iceland. 445 km (276 miles) from Reykjavík”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0
We had an Amazing time! If you love dogs, this place is great and they truly love their animals. You get to pet all of the dogs and they are all loving and very friendly! The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend!! Be prepared for massive knats where you will need to wear the provided head mesh. They provide warm suits, gloves, beanie, and an insect repellant head netting. The bugs and dog yelping could be over-stimulating for some people who are sensitive to noise and bugs.....But we Loved it!!

I cannot say enough about this experience - it was magical! The best part of our Icelandic experience. The staff was fantastic and shared their knowledge and the dogs were amazing - you can tell how much they are cared for and loved. I cannot recommend this enough to anyone wanting an adventure who also loves dog cuddles!!

We had an amazing time. Staff is super friendly, you’re provided with an overall, scarf, gloves and goggles if you don’t have any so you stay warm. They also offer to take as many pictures of you as you like. You can say hello and cuddle the dogs before the sled trip and after. What we loved especially was the dogs were amazingly cared for. Everything was clean and every poop was picked up by the carers immediately, all dogs were well groomed and in their kennels with their friends. They were well socialized with humans and other dogs, but not pressured to be cuddly. The ones that wanted cuddles came to us, the others could stay back. The staff knows every dog by their name. Definitely recommend and we will be back

Unforgettable dog sled ride with beautiful, energetic, friendly Siberian Huskies and experienced local Musher in North Iceland. And a visit to Godafoss waterfall one of the most beautiful waterfall in Iceland.
No. We sell Snow Dogs's tours at the price they set, through their own booking system, so the seat costs the same here as on their site. What you get here in addition is one checkout for every tour in your trip, whoever runs it, and one place to turn if plans change.
