Amazing!
A great experience and something I never thought I’d see - not just one but multiple frozen waterfalls! It’s been a while since we went, but our guide was Emma or Emily and she was great too! Very good at keeping the whole group happy and engaged through a semi challenging trail. Highly recommend this!

Frozen Waterfall Hike
The frozen waterfall tour was great from start to finish. We were picked up exactly on time from our resort and everything went smoothly from there. Our guide Vanessa was fantastic and we had a lot of fun. The BBQ lunch was a fun experience as well. Definitely recommend.

Exceptional Norther Lights Hunt!
Had a fantastic time with Max and Mika last night hunting for the Northern Lights. It was a very clear night and the Auroras were predicted to come out so it was a pretty easy trip. But what I appreciated from Max was he always kept us updated as to what exactly we were doing, how long it would take us to get to his secret spot and when we stopped and reversed, he explained why his secret spot wasn’t too appropriate for us (snow was too thick). Instead we drove a few miles further to a desolate high road with a clear view of the skies and set up camp. Within minutes we saw faint lights which blossomed into huge Auroras that filled the sky and some that were right on top of us. Milka and Max were right there with their cameras constantly offering to take photos (sometimes multiple) to capture the moment. We stayed for over an hour until the lights faded then we headed back with Max and Milka handing out warm apple cider and cookies. I’ve hunted the Lights in Iceland previously with a little success. A lot of the trip really depends on Mother Nature and the Sun giving off its flares. But what made this trip nice was Max and Milka’s friendly manner, professionalism and smiling faces. I know they must do several trips a week but they made us feel like this trip was special. They are true representatives of the welcoming Finnish culture and I really enjoyed my night out. A few things that were confusing…Apple Maps gave a different location of the office. Luckily, I took an Uber and he dropped me off at the right office. It is crowded with multiple buses leaving at the same time but that’s a bit of a good thing as you can definitely find the office easily.

Most unique way to see the lights
It was so amazing, unique. I did as a surprise for my bf for his bday . Our travel guide , I believe his name Victoria, was so nice and play his part and told the other passengers to play along . On our way to the lake he stopped showed us the beautiful aurora lights , took pictures than we were off to . In the cabin he explained everything suited us up . He took videos and pictures each of us getting into the lake . Turned the lights off ( but he remained right on the dock ) so we have can see the light to the fullest. 😍😍 As coming out he helped me since I got stocked 😂 on the ice 😂. After taking the suit off we had hot tea , cookies . My bf had an amazing time ! These survival suits are fun to float in !! No water got in! Highly recommend this activity since it’s super unique!! 😍😍😍

Located directly on the Arctic Circle, Rovaniemi is famous for its winter activities, like husky sledding, snowmobiling, reindeer sleigh rides, and ice fishing—and most Rovaniemi tours center around these activities. It is also a well-known destination for viewing the northern lights, and you can find many small-group tours that allow you to take in the stunning Finnish landscape as you chase this celestial light display. Rovaniemi is also the official hometown of Santa Claus, and you can book a kid-friendly tour that includes a visit to Santa Claus Village and a husky sleigh ride.
