Understanding the Lapland

Giorgio_B, Jan 2025

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thanks for the honest review!

Overall dissappointing

Donald_K, Mar 2024

Our guide, David, was excellent. Very friendly and informative. He suggested photo stops on the road to Inari which we wouldn't have known about. He also stopped of in Ivalo for souvenir shopping, and took an unscheduled diversion to the top of thecski slopes in Saariselka. The museum is interesting, but compact. The Sami village is a collection of huts and dwellings, but there are no Sami people there to interact with or meet. In my opinion, the description on the Viator website is a little misleading in this respect. You could easily get a bus to Inari and visit the museum for much much less.

Sami Village and Siida Museum.

We had an excellent guide who was extremely knowledgeable. She was very flexible and ensured we had a wonderful time. Learning about the Sami people and their way of life was really interesting. The day was very relaxed and enjoyable.
