- Rovaniemi - This is not a typical tour of Lapland as we are not a typical tour company. We strive to give you an authentic experience that you can’t get anywhere else. As we open our home to you we invite you to discover the true colors of Finland.
Our home is located on a private land, 22km away from the lovely town of Rovaniemi. Surrounded by picturesque landscapes and postcard-perfect scenery on the lake shore, our home is a truly unique place. The tour starts with hotel pickup. We usually drive a minivan as we specialize in small group tours only, to ensure a private experience. Once we arrive at the destination we will start with the authentic wood-burning sauna. When we say authentic - we really mean it! Our sauna dates back to the times when it was used as a smoke sauna. You can still smell the smoke! However, nowadays we heat up the stones in a wood fire.
After the sauna and swimming in the icy water, it’s time for snacks. We will gather around the fireplace and enjoy refreshing snacks before we pack up and hit the road to drop you off at your hotel.

Once the sauna has heated up, it’s your moment to relax. Soak up the sounds of the blaze popping in the wood-fired stove, as warmth slowly emanates from the rocks. The sauna is a sanctuary of liberty where you can release tension and bask in the therapeutic power of heat. Our facilitator will show you how to cool down securely as you plunge into the frosty waters of our secluded lake! That’s right, we engage in Arctic lake swimming post-sauna. During the winter, you can also dive into the snow! Once you’ve cooled off, it’s time to return to the sauna. This cycle continues until you feel completely rejuvenated. Alternating between hot and cold in the sauna bolsters your immune system and is incredibly satisfying for the soul.
