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.

Exceeded all expectations!!!

It was my boyfriends 30th so I wanted to book him some amazing experiences for his time in Lapland. We found Snowride Lapland for snow mobiling (something he’s always wanted to do). It’s safe to say we picked the right company. From the moment we got picked up from our hotel to the end, the whole team and service was amazing. Especially Nacho, our instructor, who gave us the most incredible tour through the woods and kept us entertained the whole time. If you’re looking for the perfect place for your snow mobiling trip in Lapland, honestly look no further!

Snowmobile Day in Lapland

We had Aaron as our guide. He is very helpful with our equipment. He was friendly and professional. He explained well with the safety briefing. He took photos of us during the tour. Overall, it was a fun day seeing the forest of Lapland on a snow mobile even on a super cold day. It was -29 Celsius at the start of the tour and the snow suit they provided kept us warm. I highly recommend this company because all of the equipment are in excellent condition.

Limit_U, Jan 2026

A must try experience!

The ride was awesome and our guide was also very helpful. I only wish I knew ahead of time the sled allows for both an adult and my 6 year old to ride at the same time, as I thought my wife and I would have to drive separates sleds. Slightly tricky to find the pickup location without a photo, but our guide and other travelers were patiently waiting for us for a few minutes.

Arctic Ice Karting

Jade_C, Jan 2026

A Must-Try Winter Racing Experience

Arctic karting was so much fun and easily one of the highlights of our trip. Whether you’re a fan of racing or not, karting on snow is an experience everyone can enjoy. Sliding around the icy track added an exciting and playful challenge, making it a truly unique and unforgettable activity. We had an absolute blast and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to try something different in a winter setting.

We had an amazing time on this snowmobile tour! They picked us up directly from our Airbnb and took us to the snowmobiling location, which made everything super easy and stress-free. Communication was excellent from start to finish. Our guide, Joshua or Jose (don’t recall his name), was really cool—personable, fun, and made the entire experience unforgettable. The prices are very reasonable, and they are very straightforward about the fees with no surprises. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great experience at a pretty affordable price.

The reindeer ride was amazing too but much more peaceful and chilled! Really appreciated Matyus he was friendly thoughtful and knowledgeable and we got everything we wanted to done on this trip! Recommend!!!
