    We had a wonderful day in beautiful nature! Our guide, Piritta, made sure we had everything we needed, she explained how the equipment worked and told us interesting facts about the area and nature during our trip. She made sure the speed and intensity of the trip matched our capabilities. We were well informed before and during the trip. Pick up from our accomodation was convenient and on time. Our guide brought and prepared an excellent lunch (with wonderful homemade blackcurrant hot drink) that we enjoyed during the trip. I can highly recommend this tour company and this activity!

    Super knowledgeable, nice, very friendly guide. She is really a professional and told us the authentic history of Lapland. I absolutely recommend her for an authentic experience in the parks. I forgot, super good lunch, with a fire lit in the woods, instant pancakes and incredible reindeer salami sandwiches!
