“This was a little expensive but worth it. Didn’t worry about what to wear or if our clothes would be good enough. It also meant we didn’t need to carry to many big bulky clothes with us in our luggage. Still make sure to have your layers on though!”
A 2-hour Levi combo tour: reindeer sleigh ride, hot drinks in cozy kota shelters, then a fast husky safari in Lapland.
“We were brought to the reindeer safari first. It was a short ride, but the guide at the circuit told an amazing story. Hot drinks were included; the hot chocolate was a bit thin (felt like it was prepared with water), but the pastry was tasty, and it was good to warm up in the Kotas. Afterward, we were transferred in a sled behind a snowmobile, which was good fun. We even got a big hug from the driver, which was a lovely surprise! The ride was nice. Arriving at the husky track, we immediately felt the eagerness of the dogs—a big contrast to the laid-back reindeer vibe. The four…”

Beginner cross-country skiing in Levi, Finland. Learn with a guide, glide on Lake Immeljärvi, and warm up with hot berry juice and snacks.
“It was our first time doing any kind of skiing and we enjoyed it a lot! Both guides were very helpful with putting on the ski shoes and then showing us how to actually ski. They didn’t make us feel rushed as we were quite slow compared to others but they made sure we were doing okay and supplied us with free hot berry juice during the activity!”
Guided winter hike from central Helsinki to Liesjärvi National Park, with provided boots, campfire Finnish lunch, and quiet snow trails.
“Jeff made my first, winter, forest hike in Finland unforgettable. Despite the wet, gloomy weather, he shone as a guide, being engaging, attentive, and a wealth of information. His commitment to ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone on the trail was commendable. The Finnish-style lunch he prepared was not just hearty but also delicious. From the toasty warm bread, smoked fish and vegetable soup, homemade berry muffins to hot berry juice, every bite was a delight. Jeff's willingness to share his knowledge and answer questions enhanced the overall experience. I had so many questions as a novice hiker from Singapore. The walk in Liesjärvi National Park was both…”

“It was brilliant. Enjoyed it. We had so much fun. Nothing to fault. Had enough time to do all the activities. Would do definitely do it again. Tempted to ride the mini snowmobile as an adult weighing less than 50 kg but it's only for children. Just some tips for those with dietary requitements- I hadn't asked specifically about marshmellow ingredients- I only checked re the buffet. I hadn't read up about the bus times so missed the 1545 hr bus back to town. The next one was in an hour's time. There is even a toilet facility to use halfway through the activities.”

It was so much fun, and I didn’t expect skiing to be this enjoyable. Merja, my guide, was incredibly patient and kind, explaining everything step by step and making me feel comfortable the whole time. I truly loved the experience—it was fun, encouraging, and very memorable. Highly recommended!”
