7.Aurora Borealis Dinner in a Glass Igloo

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 18 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $322

You’ll spend about three hours in a private glass igloo restaurant in a Lapland forest near Rovaniemi. Expect Finnish sausages, warm glogi, a guide-led northern lights search, and pickup from any Rovaniemi address. The lights are never guaranteed, but the setting works even on a cloudy night.

“We could not enjoy the experience because the plane had to divert to Oulu due to bad weather in Rovanimi. As soon as we knew this we contacted the company so that they could have our places for other people. We asked them if we could do it the next day and they said yes, but that we had to pay for the activity again since, according to them, Iberia would reimburse us for the expenses arising from the delay in landing. When we indicated that we had no security of such return we were offered to rebook with a 50% discount. I understand that it was not the fault…”

8.Wild Reindeers Safari + Lunch in Glass Igloo (private service)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 16 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $298Best value

Spend about three hours in private company with The Guide Father, following reindeer through Rovaniemi’s quiet forests. Warm clothing, heated transport options, an open-fire snack, and a three-course Lapland lunch in a glass igloo make this a comfortable family outing. Guides Alex and Vadym have earned especially strong praise.

“What a great experience! Our guide Vadym was incredible! Very knowledgeable and fun. We had 3 different types of vehicles to choose from and could even choose to be pulled in a sled. Amazing views all put by ourselves in the deep woods. Much higher quality snowmobile that we chose versus a different tour operator we used the day before. The lunch in the igloo was excellent! Very cool setting and delicious food. Pickup and drop off was in a much nicer vehicle then other tours. Highly highly recommend The Guide Father and Vadym in particular. We will book all of our tours with them when we come back!”
