Feel the Power of a Snowmobile with Wild Nordic!! - This experience for beginners had just the right amount of excitement for everyone. They provide all the equipment and clothing, go through a short briefing on how to use the machines and then you are off. One rider drives and then you switch off about 25 minutes into the trek. At the break, you have an opportunity to take pictures, etc. The course is easy and challenging all at the same time. You have a lead driver from the office and all stay in line and follow along. I anticipated it being a very slow traverse, but it was not that slow and you could reach some speeds but not over do it. You have the option to buy additional insurance for E20 to cover any any damage to the machines but we didn't. IF you have never done this, give it a try and realize you are in for an upper body workout. It is not like anything you have done before. Go and enjoy....

Snowmobile ride through the snowy woods - Fun experience: You cross Finnish nature in 1h. Snowmobile riding is challenging but fun. George, our guide, was very attentive, thorough and kind. In addition to the helmet they offer a warm balaclava to wear during the route. Recommended!

Great experience for family of beginners... - Great experience for me and my family. Time and distance for the ride was just the right amount for a beginner like me. Guides were helpful and winter equipment was provided. Can probably do without the insurance for beginners as you will rarely be driving that fast...

Fun experiences, great guide! - I did the 1-hour snowmobile tour with Wild Nordic and had a fantastic time! The route was scenic enough, the pace was well-balanced for beginners and more experienced riders alike, and the overall experience was seamless from start to finish. A big shoutout to our guide Asen—he was incredibly professional, attentive, and clearly passionate about what he does. From the safety briefing to the actual ride, he made sure everyone felt confident and comfortable. You could tell he knew the terrain inside out, and his calm, clear guidance made the whole experience both safe and fun. Asen’s attention to detail, patience, and easygoing attitude really elevated the tour. Would highly recommend Wild Nordic, especially if you’re looking for a well-organized and enjoyable snowmobile adventure.
