Rovaniemi sauna and ice swimming tour with salmon dinner, hotel pickup, forest cottage, and a chance to see the Northern Lights.
“The activity was our highlight during our trip to Rovaniemi.. had an absolutely fantastic time. A visit to Finland minus a sauna trip is like having fish and chips minus the chips 😉.. our guide Pedro was fantastic and the property host as well. This is a must do experience for anyone who visits Finland. The water in the lake was near freezing and the wood fire heated sauna was just the best.”

“This experience is going to stand out for us as incredibly memorable for years to come! We arrived in the forest complex to the twinkle of fairy lights and floor candles lighting the pathway into the visitor centre, and as if by devine intervention the sky opened up with a fine show of Aurora for us as we were shown to our lakeside Finnish sauna. Our guide Mara gave us a good rundown of what to expect and how to keep the sauna going- though we confess the Northern lights specacle kept us distracted for a good portion of our time! That said, we found this trip a perfect amount…”
Spend an Arctic evening at Rovaniemi’s SnowHotel with a snow sauna, jacuzzi, Lappish dinner, ice rooms, and Sky Bar views.

Tour Rovaniemi’s Arctic SnowHotel, use the world’s only snow sauna, warm up in a Finnish sauna, and relax in an outdoor jacuzzi.
“The visit of the Arctic Snow Hotel with Emma was really amazing, we had a great time visiting the ice bar, the ice chapel, the rooms, and all the small village with the sculptures. And we really enjoyed our time in the Finnish Sauna and snow sauna to get warmer in these cold days.”
Review of Rovaniemi’s Arctic SnowHotel dinner, snow sauna, Finnish sauna, jacuzzi, ice drinks, transfers, menu, price, and booking tips.
“We felt that the overall experience was excellent and the Ice Hotel and snow sauna were very unique experiences. However, we were asked to be at the meeting point 1/2 hour prior to the start of the experience. That seemed somewhat excessive, but we were willing to do that to prevent any unnecessary delays. But when the bus transporting us came 15 to 20 minutes late, it meant that we had to stand out in the cold for approximately 45 minutes for absolutely no reason whatsoever. If you are going to demand punctuality from your guests, you should make sure that the transportation is punctual as well.Read more”
Trade Rovaniemi’s evening bustle for a private lakeside sauna, lake swim, hot drinks, and midnight-sun views with hotel pickup.
“Chris, the tour guide, was excellent. He worked hard to ensure that we had a great time enjoying the sauna and the view of the lake. We did enjoy the sauna experience and the view of the lake very much. On the way back to our hotel, we left a pair of sunglasses in the pickup vehicle but did not realise until the next day. Once we contacted the company by email, they responded very quickly. We could easily pick up the sunglasses from their office that day. Great service.”
