Green Dog Svalbard, Svalbard, Norway
5.0 (1.205 reviews) Spent Ranking #1 in Svalbard Ski & Snow Tours • Eco Tours • Hiking & Camping Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours
Epic Experience
We booked the 3-day mini expedition into the Adventdalen, with two overnight stays in cabins, plus a visit to the ice cave in the glacier. Our guide, Didi, was absolutely superb. She was a real expert in every respect and worked so hard to deliver a truly wonderful customer experience. The weather conditions were mixed, with some poor weather, but that didn't detract in any way. The dogs were beautiful and I was awestruck at how hard they worked. The Foxdalen cabin was really cosy and quite 'rustic', while the larger lodge near Eskerdalen was quite luxurious and very relaxing. Brandy and waffles, plus a chance to meet the sled dog puppies back at base in Bolterdalen was a magical way to end. Sincere thanks again to Didi, our sled dogs and the whole team at Green Dog for delivering a magical experience.

One of the best experiences ever
If you love dogs, nature and the arctic landscape, you must try this experience. It’s a life changer and definitely worth it! First you meet up with the guide and the rest of your group for the day, then you dress up and meet the dogs (every single one of them is extremely friendly and loves to be petted: you instantly fall in love with them). Our guide was extremely professional, proficient and visibly in love with her job: she briefed us on everything we needed to know to drive our own sled and then we attached the dogs to the sled. You could see how happy they were to go for a ride! The trip was gorgeous and the visit in the ice caves was spectacular. I would recommend having extra socks for when you return to the base camp just in case it rains/snows and you get a bit wet (I have to say though that the suits, boots and gloves provided by Green Dog are excellent in keeping you warm and dry). Definitely worth the journey up here, it’s been an experience that I’ll remember for life and I’ll be forever grateful to Green Dog for their excellent job and the love and respect they have both for the dogs and for nature in general.
