Magical and exciting - Our tour guide Martio was exceptional!! We were lucky enough to see a great show of the northern lights and he helped with picture taking as well as providing the perfect location.
We had hot juice and cookies around a campfire on a frozen body of water in the wilderness it was just magical.

The snowmobile sledge is a must! - Amazing guide. Phenomenal experience. Kids 6 and 9. They asked the guide to "go fast" and he made the drive so fun for them. Then, the lights were spectacular.
They fitted us in clothing so we were warm the entire time

Great experience - The whole trip was amazing! Our guide Sandra was so warm and kind, she made sure we were comfortable and warm throughout the whole trip. She shared stories about the northern lights and we had lots of fun! We didn’t get to see the northern lights because of the fog but she took us to some great spots where we were able to see the beautiful stars. We got to see the beautiful sceneries in the deep forest which was also really nice.

Fun evening in the snow - We didn’t get to see the Northern Lights but that was purely because of the weather! BUT we enjoyed the ride tremendously, and was a good experience nevertheless. I would suggest check the weather before booking though

Wouldn’t recommend - First up - the staff were great, our kids were cold and tired and they were super kind and considerate. However the overall experience was disappointing - we weren’t expecting to be taken so close to the road and Rovaniemi town. It was a clear night and the northern lights were there but because there was so much light pollution it really didn’t feel that special… others at our accomodation went on other tours that night and had a far better experience. Finland is a beautiful wilderness, if that’s what you want then this isn’t the tour, if you prefer proximity to civilisation then this is the one.

Rip off - This was the worst tour I've ever been on. First of all, if it is cloudy don't go on this tour. They will take you out anyway just to make money, knowing that you won't be able to see the northern lights. They tell you of maybe we will see them. You won't. It was super cold. I couldn't even move or even get out of the sledge when we got to the tundra. Waste of money and was torturing cold.
