Review of Helsinki’s Nuuksio National Park hike, with forest trails, lakes, Finnish campfire snacks, berry juice, transport, and photos.

Escape Helsinki for a gentle Taiga forest hike, lakefront Finnish lunch, foraging, and round-trip transport to Liesjärvi National Park.

Hike Korouoma’s frozen waterfalls from Rovaniemi with winter gear, a Finnish campfire lunch, hot juice, and an expert local guide.
“Day trip was amazing, made even better by our guide Santi. The drive there was beautiful, after arriving we spent the day walking the trail surrounded by so much stunning scenery, words can’t describe how gorgeous a place like this was, just breathtaking, all of it. Including the frozen water falls, the hike on the trail consisted of informative information and facts about the area and Finland, it was also filled with great conversations and lots of funny jokes with our great guide sandy. The BBQ was a great experience, bonding everyone together even more. 10/10 experience, would recommend to everyone to try.”
Ride a snowmobile across Helsinki’s frozen archipelago, enjoy Finnish barbecue by a fire, try ice fishing, and return with warm gear included.
“Excellent. The bikes are great and having two per bike is desirable as the throttle can be a bit tiresome to hold down for long periods. What makes this tour so good is the guide, Kenneth, whose enthusiasm and knowledge brings authenticity to the tour. At no point did we feel like we were on a tour that had a strict schedule to adhere to: we had frequent stops to talk to fishermen, learn about the history of the area, see evidence of how the temperature fluctuation can affect the ice and see interesting vehicles used to get around. When we stopped for lunch we were given a selection of…”

I highly recommend this tour!!!”
Review of Ranua Wildlife Park from Rovaniemi, with polar bears, small-group guiding, buffet lunch, Arctic scenery, and practical booking tips.
“We went to the Ranua Wildlife Park with Tania, and this was honestly an amazing experience. She took the time to walk us through each exhibit and gave us so much insight about every animal, their habitats, where they can be found, and how they relate to Finland and the Arctic Circle. I’ve never had such an insightful and dedicated tour guide. Tania was clearly passionate about what she does and genuinely cared about sharing not just facts, but also the culture and history of the land with us. This isn’t your typical zoo visit. It felt meaningful, thoughtful, and personal. If you’re planning to visit Ranua, I highly recommend…”
