“We did the snowmobile with Arctic GM and it was just amazing! The tour is super well organized, they pick you up on your location, they offer clothes and equipments. The location of the activity is just wonderful and the guys are very nice. Special thanks to our driver from Talin with his amazing playlist, and Max our French guide for the snowmobile. Super recommended.”
Chase the Northern Lights from Rovaniemi with warm gear, countryside stops, campfire treats, and an English-speaking guide for $84.
“Well in short it was an amazing experience with or without the Northern lights. We got packed in warm clothes from the company so that we survive the cold. Then we went to the location by the river with a full moon but covered with cloud above us. there were bonfires so we had hot berry juice, cookies and bbq marshmallows. The day had a very strong activity for the light show but then the sky was covered with snow. The company waited for the sky to clear more than the assigned time of the trip. More than half of the group left after few hours because of the cold.…”
Guide a two-person sled through Lapland’s snowy forests, meet Alaskan huskies, and enjoy hot juice on this Arctic Circle adventure.
“This was the most exhilarating and sensational experience that left me feeling so contented. The guide and pre ride training was excellent and the dogs were brilliant. It was great to see the puppies and have time to ask questions to the really knowledgeable staff. An experience I’ll never forget. I removed 1 star regarding the transport because we were waiting for 30 mins outside before we got picked up. That’s they only negative we had but it happens and was prob a one off.”

Ride a snow train from Rovaniemi to a Lapland amethyst mine, dig for your own stone, and enjoy a family-friendly six-hour outing.
“Laut Angabe bei der Buchung solte die Tour 3 Stunden dauern. In Wirklichkeit waren es 6 Stunden, weil die Fahrzeiten nicht mitangegeben wurden. Dies hat unsere gesamte Tagesplanung ruiniert. Des Weiteren erfolgte der Transport mit einem alten Wagen, in dem man die Abgase im Innenraum gerochen hat.”

“Our guide was very flexible in taking us on the tour depending on the weather. (We had a huge snowfall the night before) she also instructed on which settings to use on different terrain. It was great for beginners. For those who wanted to go faster, we could also let her know, and she would adjust accordingly. But beware of others who signs up in your group which may not be as seasoned cyclists. But all in all, it was SO much fun!!!! A must do in Saariselkä if you like a little bit of activity! High recommend!”
Ride a reindeer sledge through Lapland wilderness, visit Kopara Reindeer Park, feed the animals, and learn about traditional reindeer care.
“Magical trip. Staff from point of collection to safari were both knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The trail was stunning. We were in a small group so didn’t get lost at the back of the crowd and could hear everything said. Trail was beautiful. Only thing I would suggest is to book before 1pm if you want good photos as it starts to get dark quick, and especially if your are bringing children under 8 to wrap them up extra warm as you are sat still for an hour and it gets bitterly cold by the end of it. I admit it was expensive but it was an experience of a…”
