Outdoor & Adventure Holidays in Sweden, Finland & Norway

"We really loved our holiday. It was a great mix of being relaxing but also lots of great activities. The whole experience was great. We liked the fact that we were well looked after in the huts, but we still felt independent. Loved the food and the sauna tent."

Kate, Discover Cross Country Skiing in Rondane, April 2025

"All round this made for an excellent and adventurous trip. Our guide was great, very patient and helpful and she inspired confidence in her ability to maintain a safe and very enjoyable trip. She shared and explained decision-making and her judgement about weather and likely conditions was very sound. The environment is wonderful of course."

John, Backcountry Skiing and Northern Lights in Finnish Lapland, April 2025

"The highlights were the group spirit, wilderness, and saunas."

Nicole, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, April 2025

Michael, Learn to Backcountry Ski in Rondane, March 2025

"We had a great time! It was a great experience and our friends are all in awe of the pictures and videos, and envy us for the incredible experience. And as the cherry on top of the cake, we got to see the Northern Lights. What else can you wish for?"

Yvonne, Husky Sledding and Northern Lights on the Finnmark Plateau, March 2025

"Overall, it was an amazing trip. We enjoyed massively the skiing in the wilderness with some amazing views and even saw reindeer in the wild. Although we were unsure about pulling pulks, as we have never done it before, it was not as difficult as expected, but simply tough at times. Being part of the group, doing all the tasks together such as, cutting wood, lighting the fire, getting water or snow to prepare the meals were all part of the wonderful experience."

Lee, Backcountry Skiing and Northern Lights in Finnish Lapland, March 2025

"Thoroughly enjoyed our trip and the people we met, thank you and well done! We have already handed your name to others. We enjoyed skiing in a new area together with great accommodation and welcoming hosts. We liked the flexibility of start and end dates, which allowed us to get best options for travel from Scotland."

Donald, Discover Cross Country Skiing in Rondane, March 2025

"It was totally fabulous, thank you!!"

Beatriz, Discover Husky Sledding in the Wilderness, March 2025

Fiona, Husky Sledding and Northern Lights on the Finnmark Plateau, March 2025

"Excellently planned trip with very patient and flexible guides accommodating participants of all levels and needs. Super food and comfortable accommodation and wonderful authentic local hospitality from the hosts. Highly recommended. Great customer service pre-departure. My friend and I were already perusing your website to see what else was on offer during our trip! We will certainly be recommending you all to others."

Jacqueline, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, March 2025

Justine, Cross Country Skiing in Hossa and Kalevala, March 2025

Their passion and sense of adventure fuelled our appetites - 130km over 4 days of 'kärnis' (black ice)! Nature Travels holidays are quite frankly remarkable. The team's extensive knowledge allows us to try so many unique activities in the heart of Scandinavia, how lucky we are. A fantastic company who caters for the aspiring adventurer. Thank you so much!"

Florence, Discover Cross Country Skiing in Rondane, February 2025

"Thoroughly enjoyed our trip and the people we met, thank you and well done! We have already handed your name to others.

Terry, Experience Dog Sledding and Winter Camping in Finnmark, February 2025

"The quick and specific answers to questions was great and the confirmations of transport/equipment hire was really good. Thanks. After day 3 with the dogs, you have a good idea what the processes are and what your team is like - you can relax and really soak up Lapland behind a team of dogs - great."

Chris, Hut to Hut Aurora Husky Safari in Lapland, February 2025

"Great guide, dogs, service, your great service from the beginning, gorgeous weather...this all added up to a perfect holiday."

Name not supplied, Dog Sledding and Northern Lights in Vindelfjällen, February 2025

"A wonderful experience. From the moment you walk in the door until you leave, this place treats you in very special way. I have learnt so so much and I've never been in a place where I've felt so welcome by the host. It was like being with a family. The farm and the forest are magical and the huskies are gorgeous, incredibly strong and friendly. I had an amazing experience, from looking after the dogs, driving the sled, staying at the camp, a beautiful spot in the wild, eating food on a open fire and sleeping in a tipi with -20!"

Rira, Discover Dog Sledding in Jämtland, February 2025

"Brilliant trip, thank you. Beautiful skiing through snow- bedecked trees, lovely lunches around the fire, great accommodation and guide and hosts, great group of other skiers."

"I cannot recommend this tour company enough. We did the natural ice skating in Sweden and it was phenomenal. Our guide was excellent and made the trip incredible. It was such an amazing experience that is difficult to put into words. You just have to go yourself and you will understand! I will definitely be going back!"

Colin, Ice Skating on Natural Ice, February 2025

"I had the most incredible experience during my 5-day husky tour in Sweden, a once-in-a-lifetime experience all thanks to the team at Nature Travels who made it all possible. All information was very detailed and helped me prepare for the trip. The best part was the experience of looking after the dogs, which is such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and it was incredible, they were so well behaved and trained."

Gemma, Dog Sledding and Northern Lights in Vindelfjällen, February 2025

"I had an amazing trip and would like to thank you for your part in arranging an experience that will become a major highlight of my life. I had a fantastic time with great hosts. I have been recommending your company to anyone who is interested and would definitely book with you again for any future trips. Everything went smoothly, lots of information available and questions answered quickly. The best part was spending time with the huskies and seeing how they and the people live in such extreme conditions."

Matt, Northern Lights Dogsled Adventure in Lapland, February 2025

"A life-affirming experience that I'm recommending to everyone! This was one of the best things I've done in years. The logistics were perfect, the experience was amazing and our guide made it extra special."

"Excellent pre-departure communication, magical snow-covered forests, isolation, walking across frozen lakes, excellent guide."

Neal, Snowshoeing in the Hossa National Park, February 2025

"We just had the best time ever, still absolutely reeling from the experience. It was honestly the best experience of our lives. Our guide was amazing, so knowledgeable but most of all the best fun, who made us all feel really comfortable and safe. Each day was completely different, our guide taking us to cover as many different types of lakes and ice as possible in the 4 days. It was tough, you do have to be fit, but our guide made sure no-one was left behind and we went at a pace we were all comfortable with. Can not stop looking at the videos and pictures and already planning our next trip."

Charlotte, Ice Skating on Natural Ice, February 2025

"It was truly an epic adventure! I know we will treasure the memories for our lifetimes. I'd take another trip with Nature Travels in a heartbeat, and have already recommended you to friends!"

The breathtaking views and landscapes, the fantastic group, and, of course, the incredible huskies made it unforgettable. A huge shoutout to our guide - she was absolutely fantastic! Her expertise and leadership made the trip run smoothly. The food was also surprisingly good given the circumstances — kudos to our guide for making it all work so well. Thanks again for an unforgettable trip! We're already thinking about our next adventure in the Arctic."

Michele, Hut to Hut Aurora Husky Safari in Lapland, January 2025

"I had the most fantastic time on the trip. The other people on the tour were really lovely and we all got on extremely well. I loved the Wilderness Lodge. The guides were wonderful. It was magical sledding and I enjoyed getting to know everyone. All such lovely interesting people who clearly love what they do. The Northern Lights appeared for three nights so that was awesome! I’ve been privileged to have had such a unique experience!"

Michele, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

"Dogs, food, guides, loved it!"

Mariana, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

Lucyna, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

"For an Australian, this was an immersion into a very different wilderness. The warmth, care, and experience of the people organising the experience was appreciated. Highlights were the level of care for the dogs and equipment, the clean, warm and comfortable accommodation, the sauna and ice hole experience, the traditional food and level of knowledge and experience that they were willing to share, and the immersion into daily tasks. Together, they made for an incredible experience."

Jane, Polar Lights Husky Sledding in Finnish Lapland, January 2025

"I honestly can say this was one of the best experiences I've ever had. It was all amazing, from seeing the northern lights, to driving our own sleds, even picking up dog poop in the dark at -20 degrees was great as we got to cuddle with the dogs. If I had to pick a best it would be the guides, our group spanned 13-76 years and they were great with us all. [I chose Nature Travels because] right type of trip (length and cost) and good reviews."

Martha, Wilderness Lodge and Husky Sledding in Swedish Lapland, January 2025

"OMG, what an adventure. We loved the experience. Definitely felt the cold but we had such a fabulous time. Our guide was gorgeous and so, so patient. The dogs were amazing. This is one holiday we will be talking about for a long, long time."

Brenda, Dog Sledding and Northern Lights in Vindelfjällen, January 2025

"We had the most amazing holiday. It was just what we wanted and better than we could have hoped for in many ways. Our hosts were so lovely and it was as though we were spending quality time with good friends. We really liked our trip and were expecting everything as it was. However, the personal approach and care made it so much better! It was a unique trip and one that was relaxing and unforgettable. We also experienced the most amazing display of northern lights, which were so lucky to see (sitting in a hot tub by a frozen lake). Pre-departure service was personal and really helpful."

Nicky, Winter Wonderland in Jämtland, New Year 2024/25

"It was a great adventure. Thank you for your excellent assistance and for helping us make this dream come true! Everything was perfectly clear and I got all the assistance I needed. I will recommend Nature Travels to all my friends and colleagues!"

Fabiana and Leone, Backcountry Skiing and Northern Lights in Finnish Lapland, New Year tour 2024/25

Nature Travels offered great options for what I was looking for and provided easily accessible and detailed information of all the options."

Dogs gorgeous and really enjoyed it. I chose Nature Travels because of the friendly advice and trip which suited our needs."

Christine, Experience Dog Sledding and Winter Camping in Finnmark, private tour Christmas 2024

"The Nature Travels team was extremely helpful and responsive. The best part was the opportunity to experience winter in a different way. Being mesmerised by the northern lights and sliding through snow with a team of huskies is as magical as it can get. I would have stayed longer."

Diego, Northern Lights Dogsled Adventure in Lapland, December 2024

"This was the most incredible holiday we have ever done. We felt it soothed our souls, recharged us and left us so so refreshed. The support we received from the local hosts out there was second to none, we are already looking at similar trips for next year! I have been singing your praises to anyone who will listen and sending the info around. Thank you so so much. We really needed this break into nature."

"Thanks for another great trip out to Sweden. A magical place. Looking forward to the next time!"

Kylie, Canoe Getaway in Skåne, September 2024

"You were very responsive and active in helping us book and the canoe centre were really helpful. It was beautiful to wake up and look out of the door of the tent at the lakes and islands. We went swimming every day when we had set up camp, and the water was really warm and full of fish! We saw Ospreys, evidence of beavers and a ringed seal. We had a great time, and are thinking of another canoe trip – maybe in Sweden next time."

Peter, Canoe or Kayak in Linnansaari and Kolovesi National Park, August 2024

"We had some excellent moments on our rafting tour - seeing a beaver swimming alongside the raft in the rain was definitely a highlight! We also had a beautiful early morning in the mist, cooking breakfast whilst gently floating down river as the sun rose - just magical. We had a great time - and as always we were really impressed with the level of information provided, the knowledge of the staff and the level of support available. We'll definitely be back for some more adventures in the future!" Sarah, August 2024

Victor, Self-guided Kayaking on the Ångerman River, August 2024

"Another epic Sweden canoe adventure. The last of three father and son trips with the boys. Amazing memories and experiences. Just wanted to say thanks for the assistance with these trips. The first was in 2017, then 2023 then this last one in 2024. Three sons - three trips planned with you guys. Thanks for the memories."

Nathan, Canoeing in Dalsland's Lake District, August 2024

"We had a really wonderful experience and would have loved to stay out there even longer! The location was really beautiful, a wild landscape with amazing wildlife, berries and clean water. We really appreciated being somewhere remote, and being able to wild camp was a luxury."

Megan, Discover Wilderness Canoeing in Rogen, August 2024

"The whole trip was astonishingly worthwhile and the scenery was stunning. After a day on the water, we worked so well as a team to pitch our camp, set a fire and cook a delicious evening meal. There were no screens to distract us. It all felt so natural to work together to make the evenings so enjoyable. The final highlight came at our small island 'camp'. Some families go for a swim in their accommodation, but we swam around ours! That feeling of floating in that cool, smooth, black water will live with me forever."

I really liked our communication before and the booking process, as you were really helpful and quick in answering our questions.

Ceri, Canoe Getaway in Skåne, August 2024

"Nature Travels offered the self-guided canoe experience I was looking for at a reasonable price.

We were treated like adults."

Rob, Discover the Islands of the Stockholm Archipelago, July 2024
