Driving your own team of loyal and eager huskies across the Arctic wilderness is a dream for many.

Imagine standing on a frozen lake some 200km north of the Arctic Circle with your closest friends, family or work colleagues as the multi-coloured Northern Lights dance across a pitch black sky.

Picture yourself driving a team of eager dogs through the snowy forests of Lapland. Here at Artisan Travel, we don’t do ‘ordinary’ because our passion is for the ‘extraordinary’.

Our knowledge and love of experience travel has always been at the heart of everything we do and we’ve been doing it for years and years. Along the way, we have created countless unforgettable experiences to share with our guests.

Your group can go in search of the Aurora in the Arctic, snorkel with dolphins in the Atlantic Ocean, whale watching in Iceland or explore some of the most remarkable UNESCO world heritage sites in the Mediterranean.

Looking for something more leisurely? Why not chill out with a drink in an ice bar or sail from island to island on a small ship cruise?
