This experience was very well managed by Patrik, Lola and Gianni, who all have a great knowledge about nature and were very professional!

Superb experience

MARICAR_M, Nov 2024

It was a great experience and Hena, our guide, was very accommodating and very good in explaining the things to us. She really had a good knowledge about the place and skills that she showed to us. It was a last minute activity that we have booked and it turned out as one of highlights of our trip in Finland. We highly recommend booking this trip and most especially to Hena!

Toller, empfehlenswerter Ausflug in die Wildnis

Alicia_L, Feb 2025

Unsere Wilderness Tour war einfach wunderbar. Mit unserem kompetenten und sehr sympathischen Tour-Guide Atanas hatten wir ein tolles Erlebnis mitten im Wald. Wir haben eine Brücke überquert, er hat uns Interessantes und Wissenswertes über Flora und Fauna im finnischen Wald erzählt und an einem Aussichtsturm konnten wir die Aussicht genießen. Als letzten Stop stand Feuer machen an, ganz ohne Feuerzeug. Alle haben es geschafft. Zu Essen gab es leckere finnische Würstchen (auch Vegetarische) im Brot mit Senf und dazu einen heißen Kakao. Diese Tour war unsere erste in unserem Lappland-Urlaub und können sie wirklich jedem empfehlen. So ist man dem Schnee ganz nah und kann das Lappland-Feeling richtig spüren. Preis-Leistung ist top. 👍🏻
