4.00Transport in a comfortable bus. Driver on top. 3 hours on site is limit if we eat on site. 15 min left (View 30 min.) Too bad Viator does not organize/include the zoo visit in this activity.
Great visit! Excellent zoo

5.00The pick was on time and friendly. Can’t remember the name of the driver. The zoo is excellent. Dress warmly. Hand warmers definitely recommended at this time of year. Amazing to see the animals and birds out in the cold. No polar bears and the brown bears were hibernating but that was okay. Great trail. Would highly recommend this tour!
A Great Trip to the Zoo

5.00This tour was just transportation to and from the Zoo for us and that was flawless. Communication, talking to the driver and the vehicle itself were top. The only thing was that depending on the configuration 3h at the Zoo may feel right

4.00Good ride, driver was nice. Felt a little pricey for ride but would have paid the same for a uber or bolt driver, van had WiFi and charging port which was helpful
Punctuality, seriousness and excellent drivers!

5.00We have spent 4 families in Rovaniemi for a few days and we have hired them for all the transfers. It is the second year we have done it and we will hire them again. Our driver Sergei has been fantastic, super punctual, an excellent driver. He gave us the transfer to and from the airport, the excursions to SANTA PARK and SANTA CLAUS VILLAGE and the excursion to RANUA. Communication prior to the trip was also excellent. Without a doubt a serious company that you can trust!!! ah! And they have large and small buses for different group sizes.
Great Service

5.00Very happy with this service. The driver collected us from our hotel, was on time and very pleasant. He gave us advice on arrival and waited until we had visited the zoo and had lunch before driving us back to our hotel. I would recommend this service to anyone wanting to go to the zoo, it certainly makes for a stress free and comfortable journey, the cost of the tickets for the distance of the drive was worth it.
Best and Trustworthy Tour Operator!

5.00There are 6 of us planning to go to Ranua zoo from the city centre, then luckily we saw their service. So then we booked a private minibus to the zoo, the driver waited us all the time when we are in zoo. Not to be exaggerate, but should be the best and cheaper way to get to Ranua Zoo among the others!
They forgot us

1.00We were at Santa village pick up location early. We never got picked up. They had my phone number and e-mail, but they never bothered to call. At least we got refunded.
Great service
