Why book reindeer and huskies together

A husky and reindeer safari in Levi answers a common holiday puzzle: you have one free afternoon and two animals you want to meet. The reindeer part is slow and quiet, a sleigh drawn at a walking pace through the forest; the husky part is fast, loud and over quickly. Visit Finland describes reindeer rides as moderate in speed and suitable for all ages, and that contrast is the point of a combo.1

Around Levi a handful of listings put both animals into one booking, from 2 to 3.5 hours long. They are not the same product under different names. Ride lengths vary from 500 metres to 2 km behind the dogs, extras range from a snowmobile taste to a kota fire, and the cancellation windows differ.

This page compares the combos only. If you want a long husky run where you drive the sled yourself, a dedicated husky safari serves that better; if you want time with herders and their stories, the reindeer-only visits on this site give more of it. A combo is the right choice when variety on a single day matters more than depth in either.

The best-rated combo: reindeer, huskies and a snowmobile taste

The combo this page recommends is run by Arctic Circle Snowmobile Park Levi, the operator behind this site's own herders' visit. It picks you up from set locations in Levi and includes winter clothes (overall, boots and gloves), snowmobile equipment, a reindeer farm with a 500 m sleigh ride, a husky farm with a 500 m sled ride, hot juice and a taste of snowmobiling on a shared snowmobile for 2.

It lasts 3.5 hours, starts from $206 and is rated 4.81 from 61 reviews, with sub-scores of 4.9 for the guide, 5 for transportation and 4.6 for value for money. There is no fee for cancelling up to 24 hours ahead, and the booking can be held now and paid for later.

Two details are easy to miss. You take home a reindeer driving licence as a keepsake, and you are also asked to carry your own driver's licence for the snowmobile part. It also says the outing suits children over 2 years, and alcohol and drugs are not allowed. If nobody in your group holds a driving licence, ask the operator before booking how the snowmobile taste works for you.

The two Polar Lights and Arctic Circle short combos

Some combos keep it simple: a reindeer ride and a husky ride, no motors. Polar Lights Tours meets at Levi Center, Hissitie 11, and gives you a 500 m reindeer sleigh ride and a 1.5 km husky ride with the guide steering the sled, plus a farm presentation, hot juice and a snack. It lasts 2 hours, is marked wheelchair accessible and starts from $196.

It is the most reviewed combo, with 225 reviews, but its score of 4.12 is the lowest among the combos. Its what-to-bring list names warm clothing, a hat and warm shoes; no outerwear is listed as included.

Arctic Circle Snowmobile Park Levi sells the cheapest combo: transport by minibus from selected locations in Levi, a 500 m sledge ride pulled by reindeer and a 500 m sledge ride pulled by huskies. It lasts 2.5 hours, starts from $165 and holds 4.55 from 75 reviews, with 4.8 for the guide and 3.9 for value for money.

Longer rides with Easy Travel

If distance matters, Easy Travel's Lapland reindeer and husky safari has the longest rides of the combos: a reindeer-drawn sleigh ride of 1 km and a husky-drawn sleigh ride of 2 km. It collects you at Hullu Poro (Hotel Crazy Reindeer) or the Levi tourist information and drives 15 minutes to Kittilä; after the reindeer you drink hot berry juice in a kota, then meet the huskies for a safety briefing and the sled ride.

It lasts 3 hours, starts from $289, the highest price among the combos, and holds 4.52 from 223 reviews. Read the terms before booking: free cancellation ends 2 days before, there is no reserve-now-pay-later label, and thermal outerwear is not included.

Early in the season the plan can change. The listing warns that in November, for lack of snow, the safari can be switched to a farm visit with petting the dogs and feeding the reindeer, and then offers a new date, a reduced price or a full refund. It is not suitable for wheelchair users, people with mobility impairments or pregnant women.

Rautusjärvi and Muoniontie: the camps with extras

Keo Wilderness runs its combo from the black minivan in front of Burger King Levi, 15 minutes by van to Rautusjärvi. You get a 2 km husky sled ride, an 800 m reindeer sleigh ride with stories from a Sámi reindeer herder, photos with both animals and a hot drink with cookies in a Finnish hut. It lasts 2 hours and starts from $173, rated 4.22 from 61 reviews.

Its list of people it does not suit is long: anyone with mobility impairments, heart or kidney problems, high blood pressure, animal allergies or motion sickness, wheelchair users, babies under 1 year and people over 95 kg. Feeding the animals is not allowed, and changes to a booking need 36 hours' notice.

Lovimainas builds its 3-in-1 combo at a camp on Muoniontie, 10 minutes from the Levi Tourist Office: a 0.6 km reindeer sleigh ride, a snowmobile-towed sleigh ride and a 1.5 km husky ride, with hot drinks and a kota. The listing names a no-kill policy for its dogs and a husky adoption and rescue partnership; it is not suitable for people over 70. It starts from $172 and holds 4.34 from 169 reviews.

How the reindeer and the dogs are treated

A combo puts two very different animals in front of you within an hour, and both deserve the same care. Reindeer are semi-domesticated and scare easily; the Sámi Parliament's visitor guidance asks you to get to know them only with the guidance of their owner, and Finnish law forbids frightening them.3 Follow the guide at the reindeer farm, and save the cheering for the dog yard.

Visit Rovaniemi sets out a fair test for any animal outing: on responsible tours the animals are never forced to run or pull a sled, and activities follow their natural characteristics and needs.2 At a husky and reindeer farm near Levi you can see this for yourself in the way the guides handle the animals and in how willingly the teams go.

Ask about the animals' day. Where do the huskies rest between rides, how many outings does a reindeer pull, what do they eat? A good guide welcomes those questions. Lovimainas, for one, writes a no-kill policy and a rescue partnership into its listing; that is the kind of statement worth looking for.

Matching a combo to your group

Families with small children should start from the age and health rules. The snowmobile combo says it suits children over 2, while the Keo Wilderness combo excludes babies under 1 and lists a long set of health conditions. The Easy Travel safari lets infants ride on laps.

Travellers short on warm gear should look at what is lent. Only the snowmobile combo lists winter clothes in its inclusions: an overall, boots and gloves. Easy Travel says thermal outerwear is not included, and Polar Lights Tours puts warm clothing, a hat and warm shoes on its what-to-bring list.

Budget travellers will find the 500 m and 500 m combo the cheapest at $165, while those who want the most riding for their money should compare Easy Travel's 1 km and 2 km with its higher price. Whichever you choose, book the combo for a day you can keep clear: the pickups, the two farms and the warm-up in between fill an afternoon.
