100% recommended - we had a wonderful afternoon. With only 4 participants, the ice floating was really great and relaxed. A big thank you to Victor, our guide. He explained everything wonderfully and even tried to speak some German for us. Floating in the icy water was a great experience and we had a lot of fun

Great Experience - The activity was fun and more than what I expected. After being in the water we had some tea and gingerbread cookies. If you are nervous I would suggest watching their YouTube video on how to get in/out or the water. My guide was Pedro, we had a great chat about Finland and the benefits of using the Sauna. He also took pictures of us with our phone.

Unique experience - Really unique experience in a beautiful lake setting. As this was a small group (4) we had as much time floating as we wanted. Guide was very patient and funny getting us in and out of the suits as well as in and out of the water. Floating around in the silence while it snowed gently was an experience not to be missed.

Arctic ice floating - It was surreal floating in icy water. The experience was amazing . Ability to swim is not necessary. Once your inside the special suit for sure you will float . So nice floating peacefully watching the blue skies. The frozen lake surrounded with snowy trees is so beautiful.

An unexpectedly fantastic experience! - This activity certainly exceeded expectations and was such good fun! It was fuss free - we didn't need to change out, just slipped ourselves into the waterproof buoyant thermal suit and we all slid one by one into the lake waters, looking like floating human lobsters. :) Despite the subzero temperatures, it was not cold at all and we managed to stay dry in the thermal suit. Our guide, Pedro, was fantastic as well. Super enthusiastic about delivering an amazing experience for his guests, helping us take photos while we floated around, and then coming by to pull us up the edges of the ice so that we could lounge like a "seal"! :) Overall, a really unexpectedly fantastic experience!

Peaceful ice floating - We had a great time on our ice floating trip! After booking it I became apprehensive that it might be a little boring just floating there, and maybe too cold, but it turned out to be a really unique experience. The flotation suits kept us quite warm even though it was -21 degrees on the day of our trip and it was very relaxing, the lake was completely frozen except for the patch we were floating in and the surrounding of snow covered trees and the sun setting on the horizon was so peaceful and calming. The suits kept us completely dry so when they came off we didn’t need to get changed at all. We would really recommend this trip if you want to experience something a bit different!
