Our adventure takes us to the picturesque village of Kilpisjärvi, Lapland. After a two-hour scenic drive from Tromsø, we’ll arrive in Kilpisjärvi and gear up with warm, protective clothing. Following a safety briefing, you’ll hop on a snowmobile and begin exploring this wintry wonderland.

This adventure emphasizes the beauty of Finnish Lapland’s landscapes over speed, with terrain ranging from flat frozen lakes to rugged trails. Along the way, we’ll pause to enjoy the scenery, take photos, and — for those sharing — switch drivers. Lapland’s weather adds to the adventure. Conditions can be challenging, so dressing warmly is essential. The tour is guided, and drivers must follow safety rules and are responsible for any damages to the snowmobiles.

5.00Our guide, Michiel, who picked us up from Tromso, who was also the one who guided us throughout the tour. He was extremely passionate and made everything so much fun. He made sure we understood the safety rules, explained many interesting facts to us throughout the journey. He encouraged us and made sure everyone was okay. We started in Finland, passed a frozen lake and made it to the three country border which was super cool. Michiel even took pictures of us to document this day with his professional camera which photography is his passion too! He shared the photos with us without any additional charges. Awesome day spent! Super recommended!

5.00Jonas and Mida were amazing guides for our snowmobile trip. Kept everything and everyone safe and also fun. The food they use on trip is genuinely incredible - I couldn't believe the quality of food we got, after snowmobiling in a very remote location for an hour or so! Thank you guys so much for an amazing trip, and the amazing photos you took as well!
Don't miss this exciting tour. Fun and Scenic

5.00This tour was amazing. The drive into Finland was very scenic. I was very worried about the extreme cold, but the thermal suits, gloves and boots with my own wool and fleece layers kept me warm. It was too cold for us to go to the 3 country border so we headed up into the mountains. Meda our guide took pictures for our small group and she made sure throughout the tour that we were okay. Safety was a priority. My husband and I each drove our own snowmobile, although most couples shared a machine. Views on the tour were spectacular. Seeing the sun and moon at the same time at the same level on the horizon was beautiful. On the drive home I saw 2 moose standing in the trees, so keep your eyes open on the drive back to Tromso.

5.00The day was absolutely perfect! I would totally recommend this tour, from beginning to end. The bus was very nice and the 2 hour drive was very scenic, they provide all the winter gear, and the tour was unreal. Everyone was super friendly and knowledgeable, would definitely do this if your in tromsø for a couple days!
Beautiful day in 3 countries.

Unhappy with the price/Good guides/Good views

3.00I liked the activity although I disagree with the price. The description of the ad should say that you will be 4hrs on a bus, 30 minutes getting dressed, 30 minutes receiving instructions, half an hour eating and by far 1.5 hrs on the bikes, because the driving is intermittent making constant stops and waiting for the group. Our group was 10 bikes. The views and information were fine, but I definitely didn't expect such a basic trip. The guides have been good at doing their job, as they have made an enormous effort to keep the activity interesting. Hint: Separate experienced users from those without, as they hit my wife from behind. In addition, hopefully they care a little more about people than snowmobiles.
Highly recommend this trip for a fabulous day out!

5.00We had a fabulous day yesterday on this trip, Jonas and Ivan couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful from start to finish. We were given so much information about Norway and Tromsø in general, Jonas gave us an insight into what it is like to live here. We received gorgeous photos from the trip which were taken throughout by Jonas. The snowmobiling was brilliant, all well explained and had beautiful surroundings. Including visiting where there three boarders cross of Norway, Sweden and Finland. Food was tasty, however we had people on our trip who wanted to rush back for evening trips which we found did cut our food stop short but you cannot please everybody and they really tried. We did have people on our trip moaning about lack of toilet stops throughout the two hour bus trip and the snowmobiling, however we felt there were plenty of toilet stops and it was made clear there would not be a constant supply of toilets. Overall I would highly recommend this trip and would do it again in a heartbeat.
Wonderful experience - snowmobile adventure

5.00What a fantastic experience! An unforgettable day filled with magical landscapes, the thrill of snowmobiling, and fascinating stories shared by the guides… we can only recommend it 100%! In fact, we’ll definitely be back! The equipment is top-notch for extreme cold, and the guides are incredibly friendly and attentive when it comes to safety rules. Huge thanks again to Meda and Thomas for such an amazing time!
As described but disappointing

2.00The tour was nice and formally as described, but overall disappointing. There were not many explanations other than telling us about the regulations to ride a snowmobile in the three countries and showing us where the three border is. Otherwise not much explanations, the mobiles were not very fast. Admittedly, this is what was mentioned in the description, I just had different expectations, but this might be my fault.
Amazing snowmobiling adventure!

5.00An amazing snowmobile adventure from start to finish. Be prepared for an early start. We met our guides, Jonas, Michiel, Jefta and Bogdan our driver at 6.15am from the bus terminal, boarded and set off to Finnish Lapland (Kilpisjarvi). We were very lucky to have a stunning weather day, blue skies and lots of sun. We approached Finland and the mountains looked pink from the sunrise. Absolutely beautiful. After suiting up; we were provided thermal snowsuits, boots, balaclava & mittens (If you still feel chilly after being outdoors for 10 minutes, there is the option to have a thermal coat to go over all of these layers. As someone who feels the cold this was greatly received. Do not be afraid to ask for the extra layer. When we suited and booted it was -9 when we arrived at the three-country borders the temp had dropped to -20 so I was very thankful of the extra layer. After getting dressed, we went through the safety procedures. We then got on to our snowmobiles and ventured onto the frozen Kilpisjarvi lake and rode through the picturesque forest to the three county border between Norway, Finland & Sweden. Our guide took lots of photos and when we stopped at the three country border had warm berry juice and biscuits. We took a different route back and came across a 'Sun Dog' ( a luminous, often colorful patch of light appearing about to the left, right, or on both sides of the Sun. Formed by sunlight refracting through hexagonal ice crystals in high, cold cirrus clouds, they look like "mock suns" and are most common when the sun is low) our guide said they were incredibly rare. We stopped and had lunch - an Asian bean curry ( A Norwegian ration pack). It actually tasted very nice. Much nicer than the Salmon version we'd had the night before. Arrived back, de suited and booted and got on the coach to go back to Tromso. Whilst on the bus our guides worked through/ edited all the photos they had taken throughout the day and we had them emailed to us later on that evening. A truly fantastic experience.
