Our guide used the time to teach how to make fire and explained about auroras. Rating 3 star as we couldn’t see anything and didn’t wait for longer or try other places. Guide was good and dropped us off at our place.”

Rovaniemi: Snowmobile Safari into the Wilderness

5.Snowmobile Safari into the Wilderness

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 254 reviews · 2 hours · from $129

Rovaniemi snowmobile safari into Lapland wilderness with gear, English guiding, and a silent stop. 2 hours, 15 to 30 km.

“Highly recommend this fabulous adventure at Apukka Resort. Our guide Juusi looked after us so well with excellent instructions & we felt so safe throughout the journey. We chose Apukka as they allowed our children (aged 15 & 10) to sit on the back of the snowmobiles as passengers with us adults driving. Nice balance between safety whilst letting us go faster as we became more confident. There were only 5 vehicles out on our tour which meant we could go at a good pace & we even took a detour on the way back for a few extra km to fill our allocated time. Very warm snow suits, mittens…”

“This trip was included with breathtaking views and sights. Some fantastic pictures from the guides. The trek was reasonably short and on a path therefore not through thick snow. Guides were excellent at matching the pace to the group to ensure everyone has the best experience possible. Lunch was minimal of cooking a sausage over the fire but all traditional Finnish experience. Quite expensive for the day but for us it was worth it and we all enjoyed it.”

Rovaniemi: Lapland Wilderness Husky Safari 7,5 km

11.Lapland Wilderness Husky Safari 7,5 km

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 85 reviews · 4 hours · from $234

Drive huskies through Lapland on a 7.5 km sled ride, then meet the dogs at the kennel with warm drinks by the fire, from Rovaniemi.

“Very badly organized - it was supposed to start at 11:30 an then at the end it was 12. Then after arriving to the husky farm there was another half an hour waiting time for nothing. Very brief explanation about how the husky farm operates and then very little time to go around the farm itself and see the dogs (we could walk by 4-5 kennels before we were called back to go to the sledges). There was a good explanation about how to ride the sledges, but then we had to wait again to be able to actually go. The husky ride was the best part - the dogs…”

“An all day snowmobile tour of beautiful nature. Our guide was Patrick and we had a great time. Pick ups & drop off are well organized and they provide all the necessary gears. In addition to an organized drive through the forest etc. we were given two occasions to "freestyle" on a large open space! Also you can switch drivers in the middle. We had reindeer stew as lunch and it was delicious! Nice break to rest a bit and warm up before completing rest of the journey. It was one of our favorite experiences in our trip to Rovaniemi!”

“The most amazing experience! Snowmobiling through the forest and onto a frozen lake, it was magical! Our children were towed by the guide in a carriage and they absolutely loved it. Our guide was fantastic, always checking we were ok. Only 2 other snowmobiles in our group so very private too. Such a lovely family run business, very friendly with the cutest dogs too! My kids loved playing catch the ball with them all. I would 100% recommend to anyone considering this excursion, fantastic experience and memories to last a lifetime!”
