5.00We had a super good night! Guide Kevin is very relaxed and wants to give you a good time in the beautiful surroundings! You can see he's making an effort to do that! (like testing all the sausages to find the best :) We really liked this personal approach! Thank you!
Amazing experience! Highly recommended.

5.00Super recommended experience. Kevin is the best guide: attentive, careful and fun. Despite the cold we had a great time and were very lucky to see auroras. You certainly have to do this at least once in your life!!
Magical experience under the Northern Lights

5.00Super activity, moment suspended skiing in the dark forest and hear only the sound of snow under our feet. We had the chance to see beautiful dawns in the starry sky. Magic. Nice moment also around a fire toast sausages. It has nothing to do with day walks and the atmosphere of the forest at night is definitely worth it. And Kevin is a great guide, nice, cheerful, who puts confidence. He gave me tips for skiing (1st time in ski touring), which allowed me not to fall once;) and lots of interesting info about Finland, the dawn etc. I was alone on the tour and I find it really very professional not to cancel the tour. 10/10!
A Magical Night Under the Northern Lights

5.00We had this experience during our vacation and it was simply fantastic. Skiing through the forest and across the frozen lake at night, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, was truly magical. During the excursion, we had the chance to warm up in a traditional kota, enjoying hot sausages and tea. We were also lucky enough to see the Northern Lights, which made the evening even more unforgettable. Our guide, Kevin, was very kind and helpful, contributing to a perfect experience.
