Snowmobiling Tour – 4 nights

Rovaniemi

One of the most thrilling ways to get around in winter is by snowmobile. Thick blankets of snow make the labyrinth of lakes, rivers, frozen swamplands and white forests accessible.

You will also visit a reindeer farm and experience a ceremony for crossing the Arctic Circle.

Experience a traditional reindeer sleigh ride and learn about reindeer and their herders!
