The experience

Activities & Shift

I have dogsledding tours with guests from the end of November until the beginning of April. If you are here during those months, I can also use help with preparing for the tour and drive a sled and cleaning up afterwards. Check out my other advertisement on Worldpackers for more information on the high season (November - April).

Rules

We don't have shifts in working hours. During low season ( May - October) there is usually not too much to do when it comes to tours. So the hours of work will be throughout the day with breaks in between.
