All of the above is computed from goHusky's own 7 product records, not from a questionnaire. Fleet size and typical group sizes are the figures a comparison table usually shows; Bókun does not carry them, so we would be guessing, and we would rather leave a gap than fill it in.
From the operator's own Bókun vendor record. Their own site: gohusky.is — same price there as here.
Google reviews of goHusky as a company — not of one specific tour.
This was such a great experience, both my teenage children rated this as the best experience of the holiday :) The dogs are super friendly! We picked the hike with husky (visited in June), and it was a lot different than I imagined (walking a dog in the forest). The biggest surprise is how strong the dogs are. They pull you with incredible strength :) At the end of the 1-hour hike, you get another 1-hour of petting husky and visiting the house. The owners are very friendly and with many funny stories to share. They have 30 husky dogs, they know all of them by name and ancestry, and you can see they really love their dogs.

We had a fantastic time hiking with the huskies. Gunni and Mara are fantastic hosts, and the dogs are treated as family. Dogs are very friendly and love being petted. One of the highlights of my holiday. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

Amazing experience with 30 huskies you get to pat. I went on the cart and the sled and both were great. They were comfortable and I felt very safe. The scenery is amazing and the owners are very friendly, knowledgeable and clearly love what they do and love all of their dogs. Afterward being out we went inside for hot chocolate and to learn some more about the dogs and the wool they make out of their hair. Highly recommend!

My girlfriend had taken me here as a surprise trip and i couldn’t have been more grateful. we were welcomed with a choir of howls and greeted by a very genuine couple María and Gunnar. The hike was about an hour with a beautiful scenery. Very easy even if you're an inexperienced hiker and/or dog walker. Gunnar had taken us through a tour where we talked about his dogs, how they were/are trained, iclandic culture and even our personal endeavors. After the walk we were welcomed into their home with the pups for a tour and some refreshments. Delicious hot chocolate btw. You can tell how much Gunnar and María love their pups. It was genuinely the best part of my trip here in iceland. Id recommend this trip to anyone considering traveling here even if it’s hours away. It is worth it.

No. We sell goHusky's tours at the price they set, through their own booking system, so the seat costs the same here as on their site. What you get here in addition is one checkout for every tour in your trip, whoever runs it, and one place to turn if plans change.
7 of their 7 tours include a pickup service. Each tour page says which, and pickup is chosen at checkout.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start. The exact window is printed on every tour page and in your confirmation, and a refund goes back to the card you paid with.
Their departures we sell start from Akureyri. Check the map on each tour page for the exact meeting point.
Their tours are guided in Icelandic and English, according to their own product records. Where a tour is audio-guided rather than led by a person, the tour page says so.
5.0 out of 5 on Google from 197 reviews of the company. That is the operator's score, not a rating of any one tour; our own guests' reviews of their tours, where we have them, are shown on this page and on the tour pages.
