If you are going to the zoo in a small group, look for a different vendor. We were told after we got back that there is normally a chartered bus. However, it was just our family that day so had a driver. Once arriving at the zoo, the driver told us to be back in 30 minutes to an hour. We finally negotiated 2 hours of time at the zoo (was supposed to have 3) but we were rushed. We met friends there and didn’t feel like we could take our time to watch the animals because we were told to be back at 12:30. On top of being shorted a hour, the zoo had not received our reservation from the vendor and didn’t have us on their list. This took valuable time away from our already shortened time to experience the zoo. When we contacted the vendor, the driver told the vendor we left at 1330 which was not true. Vendor offered to have us repeat the tour the next day but we were leaving that evening and our friends had already left Ranua as well. The zoo was great…however we didn’t have time to explore anything other than the walking tour path due to getting shorted an hour that we paid for. Definitely no chance to grab a bite to eat before leaving either.

In the winter many of the animals are hiding or hibernating. The animals we did see were pretty cool.

Beautiful, very good service, a car came to the house directly to pick up just us. In the zoo in winter perhaps many animals are hibernating but there are many particular species that you can only see there.

Thank you for the amazing trip, the bus was super clean and warm. The driver was on time and the company sent a confirmation one day ahead with all instructions about the pick up. I lost my scarf and they were so kind to bring it back to our hotel the next morning. The kids also loved the tour

Our family really enjoyed our visit, it’s great place to see all the northern animals. We spent 3 hours in the zoo, time was enough time. We were very pleased with the service provided taking us from our accommodation to the zoo and drop us off to the train station. Great service and a nice experience!

Interesting place to see the arctic animals, walking along the path, one can hear the crunching sound of the snow under your feet. Beautiful place covered in snow. We had lunch the native way; our guide starts the fire wood and we had BBQ sausages, bread, pancakes with hot beverages, at the same time to catch some heat.
