NOTE:
During the whole safari you'll be in the Van because European Moose are shy & they can hear our voices from 3.5KM & our whispers from 700m.
The guide will let you know by special symbol (explained before the tour) when any moose spotted.
When we spot the Moose it is advised not to say anything it will make the moose run away & we will miss the chance to gaze it properly
The Moose picture & spotting is not Guaranteed, it is totally up to the nature. although if we don't able to find a moose you are eligible for a special discount on your next booking.
