This tour exceeded our expectations! By far the best snowmobile tour i had ever taken so far! We also asked them if there possibility they can provide us with no pork options for food and they arranged it! We had an amazing time and our leader was the best😍 We went into the woods and then on a frozen lake all with the snowmobile and later we had this amazing BBQ at the camp. Amazing daytrip! Definitely will do it again and again!
