Fantastic!! - Guide Emily made a very good job! We were at least an international group of 10 persons and really enjoyed the safari. We were very lucky to see a musk ox eating, walking and making siesta.

Musk oxen - We took part in a musk ox safari from Oppdal at the end of September and were very satisfied. A few days earlier, we saw musk oxen only very far away on a total of 20 km hike from Kongsvoll. The night before our safari it snowed, there was snow on the hills, so after weather-related cancellations we were only traveling with 4 participants with Emily. Emily is super likeable, uncomplicated and has a very positive charisma. To our surprise, the starting point for our safari was different from our previous hike on our own. Emily has repeatedly adapted our route to her observations with the telescope or animal tracks. Our tour went adventurously cross-country, over snow-covered falls and through water-covered falls, even through river courses. When I hardly expected it, Emily actually found a small family of musk oxen. Although there were already photographer groups on site who opened up the way from the road, the clearly more exciting nature experience we had. Emily has calmly and carefully paid attention to the safety distance, of course we would have liked to have been closer for the perfect photo, so we can now enjoy our nevertheless beautiful photos intact. Thanks Emily, also for the Recommendation for the next day, your prediction was exactly right.

Highly recommended - Great tour, very happy with guide Morten who didn’t give up the search when the musk oxes seemed to be hiding. The scenery is beautiful. Dress well for the occasion: it was rainy and cold when we went out, but it was very much worth it.

Not to be missed! - We had a wonderful day. Everything was well organised and communication when booking was excellent. Our guide, Morten, was fabulous. He answered every question patiently and was very knowledgeable. It was great that he had a scope for us to get a better view. He even brought tea, coffee and cinnamon buns for everyone. Thank you!
