Day 1 : Arrival Rovaniemi – Reindeer Safari

Arrival by flight on own. Transfer from Rovaniemi Airport to the hotel. For this day, we recommend an early dinner (not included) at the hotel restaurant since the kitchen will be closed after you return from the Northern Lights Safari. At 19.00 - Pick up and transfer to the starting point of the Reindeer Safari to search for the Northern Lights. Seeing the Northern Lights is a very impressive experience. Especially while sitting in the sleigh pulled by reindeer, which will take you for a peaceful trip where nature shows its silent beauty. The Northern Lights vary a lot in appearance and therefore we might adjust the tour accordingly. The ride will take place at the local reindeer farm nearby Rovaniemi, where you will meet the real reindeer herders, who will tell you about their way of life hand by hand with nature. There are many great possibilities for taking photos during the safari and tour in the farm; you can also feed the reindeers with their favourite snacks. Warm drinks with buns are served indoors of the farm, while you listen to interesting stories about reindeer herding and wilderness life in Lapland. The transfer from Rovaniemi central area takes about 30 minutes one way, you can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the countryside during the way.

This evening departure of a snowmobile safari will be a special experience to discover the magic of snowy forests in the night. Given extra light by the white snow reflection or the stars and the moon, we follow the snowmobile trails away from city lights and looking for the spots to admire the sky. The guide will light up a bonfire and we will enjoy a picnic while waiting for the Northern Lights to appear. Everyone can grill traditional Finnish “makkara” sausagesNorthern Lights Search on the fire and we will serve Lappish berry juice to keep you warm.

Snow reflection, stars and moon are giving us light, while finding a way in the darkness. Snowshoeing is a great way to experience Lapland’s wintry wildernesses, enjoy the fresh and clean air and get some exercise. After a 20-minute transfer we will arrive to the Wilderness Lodge, traditional lumberjack manor nestled by the beautiful river of Raudanjoki. We cross the walking bridge to the river island where we can admire frozen rapids. The area provides high chance to spot Northern Lights. You will get all the needed equipment and we head for the forests trail. Using snowshoes is easy, you don’t need to be a skilled skier to learn what snowshoe hiking is all about – reasonably good balance and warm clothing is all you need.

We drive out from the city and light pollution about 30 min – 45 min, depending on the weather conditions. If we are lucky, you can see the lights already on the way. The appearance of the lights is not guaranteed but they are often visible on the evenings when the sky is clear. Even without the lights, the Arctic starry sky is very beautiful.
