Review of Rovaniemi’s Lapland sauna, ice swimming, open-fire salmon dinner, hotel transfers, and Northern Lights chance.
“Great hosts. Great experience. If you come to Finland and don’t do this you missed the most authentic Lapland adventure. The location isn’t too far from Rovaniemi and the cabins and Sauna were like travelling back in time. We loved it. Highly recommended.”
Review of Rovaniemi’s sauna, ice swimming, salmon dinner, and Northern Lights tour, with practical tips on price, comfort, timing, and value.
“The team was amazing we simply loved their vibes, hospitality, professionalism and their sense of humor 😂 Sauna and iced lake water took us to another level! It is at least once in a life time experimental! Food was amazing and the portions was huge, we were totally stuffed with to good food by the end! On the top of all we have tried to catch Aurora by the end of the night which we were not expecting anything from the team and they came up with the idea from out of blue at all! We enjoyed every moment and certainly recommend it to every visitor to Lapland! Thank you…”
Review of Rovaniemi’s private sauna, outdoor jacuzzi, lake views, and Lapland cottage dinner, with practical tips on price, timing, and comfort.
“Absolutely enchanting experience! The location was truly magical, nestled in the heart of the forest, surrounded by the purest essence of nature. To top it off, the homemade dinner was delightful and added a touch of warmth to the whole experience. Highly recommended!”
Ride a snowmobile sleigh across Lake Inari, feed reindeer, and enjoy a Lappish dinner by the fire on this small-group Ivalo tour.
“Zonder noorderlicht (wat natuurlijk nooit te garanderen is) is deze tocht wat magertjes. Het is vooral een (koude) tocht over het meer in een slee achter een sneeuwscooter gevolgd door een tussenstop in een tipi tent met vuur waarop worstje/soep/brood worden klaargemaakt en waar je de gelegenheid krijgt 2 rendieren te voeren. Daarna nog paar minuten terug met de slee naar de auto die ons terugbracht naar de beginlocatie waar we onze dikke geleende pakken konden inleveren en daarna teruggebracht werden naar ons hotel. Als totaalpakket niet slecht als aanbod, maar in de praktijk zonder noorderlicht heeft het weinig om het lijf.”

Review of Rovaniemi’s private glass igloo dinner, including food, snow scooters, Northern Lights chances, cost, pickup, and practical tips.
“It was a beautiful experience. The music and Christmas lights made for a Romantic ambiance. The food was delicious and the staff so friendly and helpful. Shout out to Matthew, our waiter, Andrew, the driver and compliments to the chef. Would definitely recommend.”
Ride a reindeer-hide sledge to frozen Lake Inari, feed reindeer, enjoy Lappish dinner, and search for northern lights from Ivalo.
“The Northern Lights tour to Lake Inari from Ivalo with Viator was a fantastic experience! Although the weather didn’t cooperate, the guides went above and beyond to make the trip memorable by taking us to visit reindeer and enjoying a delicious dinner by the lake. Highly recommended for a well-organized and enjoyable adventure!”
Explore Snowman World in Rovaniemi with ice slides, skating, snow art, and a three-course Lappish dinner in a real snow restaurant.
“Really cool experience! It was a 3 course meal and just as described. I had the elk and everything was very tasty. There is an ice disco bar in the restaurant as well. They served shots in shot glasses made of ice. The snow sculptures on the walls were very impressive! I had access to Snowman world and went on the large labyrinth slide. Bundle up because it's cold!”
Aurora nights, sled dogs, reindeer, and the sauna at the end of it.
