Region of mandatory visit for those who want to know Lapland , by the way in Finland everything must be visited . There was a desire to go there in the winter.

We had a wonderful time at the Sami museum. It is beautiful museum and we learned so much about the landscape and Sami culture and the connections to the land. Our guide, David, had a lot of local knowledge and gave us additional dimensions about what we learned. He also brought us to a special stop to have our picture taken with a signpost to Murmansk! I highly recommend this tour. In addition to all the other things to do in Lapland, it’s important to learn about the culture of the local people, plus, it’s really interesting!

Our guide, David, was excellent. Very friendly and informative. He suggested photo stops on the road to Inari which we wouldn't have known about. He also stopped of in Ivalo for souvenir shopping, and took an unscheduled diversion to the top of thecski slopes in Saariselka. The museum is interesting, but compact. The Sami village is a collection of huts and dwellings, but there are no Sami people there to interact with or meet. In my opinion, the description on the Viator website is a little misleading in this respect. You could easily get a bus to Inari and visit the museum for much much less.

We had an excellent guide who was extremely knowledgeable. She was very flexible and ensured we had a wonderful time. Learning about the Sami people and their way of life was really interesting. The day was very relaxed and enjoyable.

This is an excellent place. This village is full of activities in winter; you can do Aurora hunting by bus, snowmobile, in foot as well, Lapland Safari is a good option for that. Husky tour is excellent by Husky & Co. Skiing is perfect from here, the lifts are there in the village, they have renting place for skiing which is huge and excellent and have beginners classes as well. Riekonlinna Hotel by Lapland Hotels perhaps is the best option as a hotel there, otherwise Holiday Inn, Saariselka Inn and Hotel Tunturi are good options for Hotel and Apartment. You should have layers on for the cold there, it's easily -11 - - 20 at the winter, however you can rent jumpsuits from Lapland Safari's office which is downstairs to Riekonlinna Hotel. Cheers

Very complete museum next to Lake Inari...which at this time is frozen. You can see the history of this hardy town in inhospitable lands.

The hotel where we were in Saariselka offered us this additional excursion. We do not regret it. Very interesting museum explaining Sami culture, Sami nature, animals, plants and weather phenomena. In the DRC there is also a small film on the Northern Lights. Currently a temporary exhibition on Sami clothing.
