Our guide Arto was very knowledgeable and made sure our experience was top tier. The highlight for me was the snow mobile and the huskies. I felt that the tour package was good as it gave us enough time to experience each - husky sled ride 10 mins, reindeer sled ride 10 mins and 1 hour snow mobile through the frozen landscapes which was very beautiful.

Everything was great, we really enjoyed! The only negative thing I could say is about the guy explaining things in detail about the reindeers, because his speech was made with 0 enthusiastic so it was not catching the attention of any of the people around. The guides were really really nice and attentive though :)

Lovely experience and learnt a few facts about reindeer! Thanks to the pickup driver for making it possible as I misread the times!

The staff was very enthusiastic and was able to see the Northern Lights due to their perseverance.

We had enough time for all activities. The meal was delicious.
