Chilling out with skis - Me and a friend took this tour and it was a really enjoyable and tranquil experience. Kyle is a friendly and very knowledgeable guide and knows the area like the back of his hand (having created the trails). He kept us well entertained and was very hospitable. Highly recommended.

SKI TREK IN SNOWY WONDERLAND - Kyle's guided ski adventure is a unique experience. A gentle, quiet "ski-walk" through an enchanted, Narnia-esque set of trails which meander through a vast area of pristine woodland near lake Norvajarvi. Along the trails Kyle takes time to talk to about the area, it's wildlife and gives you fascinating insights into Finnish history. Kyle has planned stops where you can enjoy a warning drink and taste local food and the trip ends with a walk onto a wonderful frozen lake with a final rest around a cosy fire. Neither my wife or I had done ski trekking before, but had no problem picking this up. In Rovaniemi it's easy there are a huge number of activities on offer, from husky/reindeer rides to skimobiles, to Aurora hunting trips and sometimes it's hard to find those a little more individual and unique. This is one you shouldn't miss!

Arctic Fox Expeditions guided ski adventure - incredible! - Incredible experience and can’t recommend Arctic Fox Expeditions enough. Kyle’s knowledge, passion and kindness made all the difference to this adventure. Experiencing the ski adventure through the different landscapes of the forest and the frozen lake was an experience I’ll never forget

Enjoy the silence and get the real Finnish experience - We had an amazing time with Kyle guiding us through his track in the forest and on the lake. This is such a great experience, away from the noise, back to simple things in life. Kyle has an amazing sense of making sure that everything goes well for you - from making sure that you’re sufficiently warm to educating you on the place and its history. We absolutely recommend this.

Finlands 1# Tour Guide - Kyle provided a once in a lifetime experience! If you’re looking for a truly authentic Lapland adventure filled with Finnish jokes, stories and friendly company, look no further. My partner and I enjoyed skiing, reindeer sausages, trying cloudberries (amazing) and, of course, many servings of the infamous warm blueberry juice. Thank you again Kyle for creating unforgettable lifetime memories. If you’re having trouble deciding on tours, look no further - I would 100% recommend this to anyone. Will definitely be coming back in future!!!

Up close to the forest - THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Amazing experience, this was my first time on skis but my nerves were gone by the first tree, and a fantastic way to see the forest. A lovely way to see Finland up close, with a few carefully chosen spots to stop and reflect on the way. Hard recommend :)
