Our guide was great. Such an interesting guy. We had never ridden snow mobiles before so he taught us how and all of the safety aspects. He couldn’t do enough for us. Photos, video and extra sausages & marshmallows by the fire. Unfortunately because of the weather we didn’t see the northern lights but that can’t be helped.

It’s a very nice experience to ride the snowmobile but differently not to chase the aurora. We stopped in 2 spots that’s it to see, but we were unlucky.
The guide was great, he gave us time and was very friendly, the company was great too, Arctic lifestyle.
The experience was very nice overall.

It was nice, we enjoyed our time.
The tour guide was kind.
We didn’t see aurora but we enjoyed the snowmobile ride in the forest and over the river.

This tour agency was amazing with excellent serivce and patient towards our questions. The tour guide that brought us for the tour was even better. Despite not being able to see the northern lights due to the weather condition but the experience for the snowmobiling was great because of the friendly and patient tour guide

This ended up being one of the best things we did in Lapland. Our guide, JP, was friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond. We had an amazing time snowmobiling. But the Lappish BBQ in a little cabin in the woods was something we won’t soon forget. Highly recommended!
the tour was good the guides were great however it is not really a northern lights safari as you spend only about 15 minutes actually in an open field with the snowmobiles off and dark and looking for the lights
Excellent ambiance
On s'est bien amusé sur les motos neiges, une aurore boréale et je les remercie de m'avoir fait plaisir avec le scénario tao du kung-fu qui l'ont exécuté avec une gentillesse extraordinaire, on a sauté plus d'une trente sur l'horaire prévu, la grande classe.
Merci à Christina, john et leur équipe

El Safari no ha cumplido con nuestras expectativas, por: solo estuvimos buscando las auroras boreales lo que el guia se fumo un cigarro y solo paramos una vez, es decir 5 minutos. Luego el grupo no estuvo dinamizado por el tour, fue muy aburrido, no nos contó nada, le teníamos que preguntar para que hablara. Aunque nuestra lengua materna no es el inglés, igualmente tiene que procurar que lo entendamos y que estemos a gusto, por eso pagamos, no para que nos ignore. Nos caímos de la moto y lo primero que provo el guia fue si la moto funcionava y estaba bien, luego nos preguntó cómo estábamos, la segunda vez no vino, para que pasara algo más grande y nos quedamos allí tirados. También parecía que fuéramos a una carrera, porque no paraba de acelerar y eso nos provocó la caída y un mal estar, ya que considero que no puede asumir que todo el mundo sabe conducir una moto de nieve y que además no nos perseguia nada. Podía preguntar y adaptarse a las necesidades del grupo, ya que siendo solo dos motos considero que podía ser fácil. La barbacoa ofrecida por el tour duro 1h, lo que podíamos haber aprovechado para ir a buscar auroras boreales. La comida fueron dos tazas de té con dos galletas de una bolsa del supermercado y una salchicha sola en un plato, con un poco de ketchup o mostaza, a palo seco.
Considero que de las 3 horas programadas para el Safari estuvimos 1h en moto, 1 h en la barbacoa y 45 minutos para prepararnos para la salida.
Por último y para rematarla el guia, después de no haber procurar que viéramos las auroras boreales, lo acaba preguntando cómo lo han pasado y mi respuesta fue bien lástima no haber visto las auroras, a lo que el contesta, quizás la próxima vez. Esto fue la gota que derramó el vaso; después de haber hecho muchísimos km, venir al círculo polar ártico para ver una experiencia única, me dice "maybe the next time", a palo seco.
En resumen càlid precio muy malo. No cumple con las expectativas del tour.
