Aurora evenings, huskies, reindeer and snowmobiles, booked through people who run them for a living.
Every activity here is arranged with Book Lapland, a Rovaniemi operator we work with year after year. One point of contact, guides who know the ground, and no scrambling for availability once you have arrived.
Guided evenings out to where the city glow stops reaching. Olleronvaara is already dark enough that the sky does the work, and from there it is a short drive to darker still. A fire, something warm to drink, and a guide who watches the forecast so you are out on the nights worth being out on.
Half-day safaris where you drive your own sled rather than ride along behind someone else. The dogs set the pace and they are not shy about it. Time at the kennel afterwards, which for most people turns out to be the part they talk about later.
A reindeer sleigh moves at walking pace and makes almost no sound, which is exactly the point. It is the oldest way of crossing this landscape and it still works. Run with local herders, so what you hear about reindeer comes from people who keep them.
Routes that range from gentle forest tracks to open fell where you can actually let go. Tell us which end of that range you want and it gets matched to the group. Suits and helmets included; a driving licence is needed for the fast routes.
Tell us what you would like when you book the villa, or any time before you arrive. We pass it to Book Lapland and confirm the times with you.
