[description] => The ultimate snowmobiling experience
Snowmobiles are a way of life in the North; they provide a vital form of transport in frozen landscapes that can sometimes be unforgiving and beyond the reach of other vehicles.
They support an economy, provide a lifeline to remote communities and have even been embraced by traditional reindeer herders. A snowmobile’s importance and the popularity among guests is why we offer so many different excursions.
You can choose from our shorter safaris in Finland, Norway and Sweden to experience your first taste of snowmobiling but be warned, many of our guests have tried it and simply had to return for more!
For those who’ve caught the ‘snowmobiling-bug’, we also offer longer expeditions such as multi-day experiences covering further distances and more adventure. We have worked with our trusted partners and carried out extensive reconnaissance to select the best and most varied snowmobile expeditions available in our handpicked holiday destinations.
Overnight snowmobile safaris
We offer a range of overnight snowmobile safaris to suit a variety of tastes. Those looking for adventure can embark on a five-day expedition to Harriniva that leads you over varied winter trails, from the depths of the Finnish fells to the peaks of mountains. Averaging around 120-150km a day, these are challenging holidays but the experiences are definitely worth it.
Alternatively, perhaps you want to perfect your snowmobiling skills in the deep powder fields of North West Finlandan overnight snowmobile adventure with an overnight dog sled expedition. No matter how you want to experience snowmobiling, we have an itinerary to suit you.
Our overnight experiences include nights in wilderness accommodation which are typically tranquil cabins located off the beaten track but within the Aurora Zone, making it the perfect place to witness the magnificent Northern Lights. These cabins often have no running water or electricity, but once the fire is lit and your expert safari guide has cooked your evening meal on the fire, they provide an authentic escape from the everyday stresses of modern life. This type of accommodation really does add to your adventure.
Should I choose an overnight snowmobiling adventure?
To get the most out of an overnight snowmobiling experience, you need to have a good level of fitness as the trails can be technical and physically demanding. The days can be long and conditions challenging due to the nature of the wilderness you will encounter, but the rewards are most certainly worth it.
We recommend that you have some previous snowmobiling experience for these longer trips but above everything, you have a sense of adventure to get the most from the holiday. This is an authentic experience of the North and we simply cannot recommend an overnight snowmobiling adventure enough!

[description] => Active itineraries for experiences of a lifetime
Experiencing a destination in an active way can offer a unique perspective and help create some unforgettable memories at the same time.
Through our sister company, Activities Abroad which specialises in family activity holidays, we have accrued over a decade of experience working with some of the world’s best activity providers. We have used this knowledge and connections with our network of trusted partners to design some outstanding active itineraries here at Artisan Travel too.
Do I need a high level of fitness for a multi-activity summer holiday?
No. None of our multi-activity holidays require a high level of fitness and we will provide information on the length of each activity as well as its difficulty.
You also don’t need any prior experience of an activity unless we clearly state this is required, as all our activities come with dedicated guides and experts to help teach you the ropes.
Our expert guides are the best in the business and, as ever, your safety always comes first.
Summer activity holiday destinations
In the summer months, many regions offer a wide variety of activity options for all levels. Some of our itineraries include the activity highlights we feel you simply have to try and other holidays are left completely open for you to choose how you wish to experience the destination.
In Gozo for example, we offer you the chance to choose from a range of activities such as sea kayaking, cycling, climbing and hiking. You might want to fill up every minute with exciting activities or you could have a combination of active experiences with relaxing moments such as enjoying the delightful cuisine, exploring the picturesque coastline or delving into the island’s history and culture.
In both the Azores and Madeira, you’ll explore on land and at sea for an all-encompassing experience of these brilliant archipelagos. Activities on these striking islands include walks, cycling and kayaking as well as some optional extras such as canyoning and full day hikes.
Or perhaps you’d like to visit Croatia, where a combination of historic cities and island havens await. There are many different activities on offer to help you explore this wonderful region, including cycling, snorkelling and paddle boarding.
Travel with the experts
Our Artisan Travel Experts know our destinations intimately and will be more than happy to discuss the various activity options with you if you have any questions about our holidays. Our clients’ safety is our primary concern so you can rest assured that you will be travelling in the best possible hands.

[note] =>
[description] => Whale and dolphin watching offers one of the most memorable wildlife experiences for families, combining the excitement of being out on the water with the thrill of spotting marine life in its natural environment. These trips are designed to maximise sightings while ensuring a safe, responsible and family-friendly approach.
The Azores are widely recognised as one of the best whale-watching destinations in the world, offering frequent sightings and expert-led excursions that bring the experience to life for all ages. In Madeira, families can enjoy year-round opportunities to encounter dolphins and migrating whales, often in calm, warm waters ideal for younger travellers. Tenerife adds another dimension, combining reliable marine encounters with sunshine, accessible excursions and dramatic coastal scenery.
Each itinerary balances time at sea with plenty of on-land exploration, ensuring the experience remains varied, engaging and suitable for families looking for both adventure and relaxation.
