Fiona Wylie2024-07-03If I could give goHUSKY 10 stars, I would! As dog lovers from Australia, goHUSKY was without a doubt the highlight of our trip in Iceland. Gunni and Maria were both charismatic, welcoming, and knowldgeable. Their love for their huskies and their work is clear. Thank you x10000!!

Malavika Kale2024-06-06We so wish we had pre-booked a sledding tour! The owner was very polite and sweet and explained on the phone that the tours were booked out in advance (but also there was no tour on the day we were passing by this area) - it was still delightful to see the huskies chilling in the cool air. We have a husky of our own (although she is not exactly a working dog, haha!), so it was brilliant to see over 20 huskies of different ages.
Robert Mitchell2024-04-16What a wonderful experience to take a ride on a dogsled through fresh snow in the forest, by the fjord, under the mountains. Better, you don't know anything about dog sledding until you spend a couple of up close and personal hours with a champion! And the huskies are not just mind bendingy cute, but friendly as! Loved it, highly recommended. No special skills required. Thanks Gunnar, it was brilliant.
Benedict Carter2024-03-01Absolutely loved dog sledding with Gunnar and his pack. The dogs had a great time running round, and they are so cute!!!!
Alan Hough2024-02-21Excellent afternoon at GoHusky. Great experience and the hosts were very sociable and informative. Invited into their house for drinks and further information. We'll worth it.
Aleyna2024-01-20BUCKETLIST MUST DO!! Unvergessliche Husky-Tour! Von der atemberaubenden Landschaft bis zur professionellen Führung war alles perfekt. Die Hunde sind gut gepflegt, hervorragend erzogen und immer für ein Küsschen zu haben. Gunna und Mjölnir, unsere Guides, haben diese Tour zu etwas Besonderem gemacht! Gunnar's Leidenschaft für die Hunde und seine offene, herzliche Art waren mitreißend und deutlich spürbar. Auch die anschließende Tour im Haus zeigt die Hingabe, mit welcher Gunnar sich um die Hunde kümmert und spiegelt seine herzliche Art wieder. Danke, an euch beide! Eine einzigartige Erfahrung, die ich jedem empfehlen würde! P.S: hier gibt es die beste heiße Schokolade Islands - zubereitet von Mjölnir.
Chyrsten Jacobs2024-01-17Such an amazing and unique experience!! Gunni was delightful and shared so many fun and interesting details about the dogs and Iceland. Truly the best experience I have had on my winter vacation to Iceland so far!
Blake Tougas2024-01-04Gunni and his wife were absolutely spectacular and very welcoming. My fiance and I were the only ones there which made it super personal. Gunni and his wife were beyond knowledgeable on huskies and it was nice to hear how they went from owning 1 pup to owning 21 of them! I highly recommend this and even tho I didn't take a sledding tour I know that would be amazing as well! Book this today!

Quest294531379052024-06-10A Must Do Experience in Akureyi! This is an excellent experience. Gunnar and Maria are so welcoming. The dogs are so incredibly well cared for and live so well. It was not just a neat experience but a once in a lifetime opportunity to be welcomed into someone's home and hobby. If you love dogs, this is a must do. If you don't do petting do the hike or the sledding but don't miss the chance to meet this family!
Zoey2024-05-29Amazing Experience! What an amazing experience! The huskies are more loved and cared for than any dogs I’ve met. The tour guide was so kind and sweet. We loved our tour!!
RobMitch2024-04-16The best, dogledding. GoHusky! What a wonderful experience to take a ride on a dogsled through fresh snow in the forest, by the fjord, under the mountains.

JennKSmith052024-03-31A wonderful excursion for dog lovers! Especially if you are missing your dog(s) while you are on vacation. The owners communicated with our travel agent and us about what the snow conditions would allow for us to do and gave us options based on weather forecast and conditions. Given the way the weather can change quickly there, their excellent communication helped us plan for this activity. From the moment we pulled up, we all were in love with all the dogs and this activity. We honestly could have just had dog snuggle time for hours! That said, we took turns on a private dog sledding run that made core memories for us the parents and our teens. One teen even had a brief turn driving the sled. This area is beautiful and the perspective on the sled was a memorable one. The dogs’ personalities and their obvious love of sledding made us all have permanent smiles. After the sledding we returned for hot chocolate, coffee, dog snuggles and learned about the innovative way dog hair is being reused. I had to buy an ear warmer made from husky hair. A favorite and functional souvenir. We have one dog ( German Shep/lab/husky mix) and one teen is already wondering about making something useful from all his excess hair. We heard about their hikes when snow melts and if we were here in the summer we would absolutely try that.
James T2024-03-30An experience of a lifetime. You MUST book. Unbelievable that this has only 1 review - my wife found Maria and Gunni's experience via 'Visit Akureyri' and it is one of the best experiences of my and our life. If you love animals, I challenge you to think of a better experience than this once you've done it! I don't want to ruin any surprise, just book it and have the time of your life :-D We did the petting but it was anything but. Fully immersive and lots of fun!! Thank you guys!!
Chris V2024-03-25An amazing morning at GoHusky Well this was an amazing morning. We were met at our hotel in Akureyri and driven 15 minutes to site. Great conversation about the town and people. On arrival we were met by a chorus of husky dogs. The noise was deafening. Our host gave us a great insight into how they are cared for and we spent a good amount of time playing with the dogs. We then went on an amazing ride through the woods. The dogs were really excited to be running and were well controlled. On our return, we were allowed into the house to see how they live and talk to the owner for quite some time about life living with 20+ huskies. This is a truly fantastic experience. Don't hesitate to try GoHusky.
LouvanderStarre2024-03-05Best experience ever ❤️ Amazing experience, best of our vacation in Iceland. The 21 dogs we all super sweet and cuddly and Gunni was a great host. You could see his passion in everything he said and how he communicated and cared for his dogs too. Lovely to see. 100% recommend for anyone going to Iceland.
Andy L2024-02-29Just a perfect day. One of the best days I have ever spent. From the friendly pick up and communication, to the dog sledding and to Gunni sharing his love of their dogs, it was a perfect day. My wife had to drag me back to the hotel!
Kim2024-02-2821 bundles of furry fun! Met 21 bundles of furry fun and what an experience this was! The dogs are gorgeous and inquisitive and all want to be petted. Gunnar & Maria were so informative about life with their pack and they offer some really fun experiences. The views from their house are absolutely incredible too - I can't recommend this enough.
Will Porter2024-01-11Amazing Experience! Thank you to Maria & Gunni for welcoming us into their home and introducing their Husky Children to us! I have never met a Husky before and I was a bit anxious because of their stereotype however they were all so friendly! Ella has taken a particular liking to Stormur and is already asking when we can next see him! We hope to see you again in the future! And I hope Gunni receives the same hospitality and friendliness when he visits to U.K. in May!
