We had such a great experience and I highly recommend this activity. Marie was a great guide!! She broke up the time by teaching us different techniques and taking us through different scenery, first on the trail, then onto the frozen lake, then through the forest. This was a small group, only 8 people, which was perfect. Great introduction to cross-country skiing!!

I was useless, but if I hadn't tried, I wouldn't have known! The other two people in my group were much more successful! Give it a go, just to say you have tried it!
Magnificent scenery and lovely guide.

Views and area as a whole is beautiful

This was a really fun afternoon. Our teacher was great and very friendly and helpful. I learned to do a lot in just a couple of hours and was then comfortable doing some nordic skiing around the cross country slopes. I loved it and wish I could do it in the UK!

It was such a fun experience. Never been cross country skiing before - it was very easy and def for beginners. Tomi was great. Wish we could have stayed even longer in tromso so I could have rented gear and gone out for longer at the park he took us to.

It was a great, fun experience doing this for the first time. Marcus is a great guide and was very patient with us and made sure we were OK. Would highly recommend this.

It’s a good experience for beginners. The instructor made sure that we were comfortable and confident to participate. As a beginner do keep in mind that you will fall many times and can get hurt too.

The instructor Tommy was great and explained everything thoroughly. Very beginner-friendly, but we still had a lot of fun!
