★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 940 reviews · 4.5 hours · from $281

Guides such as Simon, Lia, Georgina, and Remi are praised for patient help, photos, and warm drinks. Winter clothing is supplied, and drivers can switch halfway through the snowmobile route.

“If you plan to do everything in one day, this is a good activity. I wished the husky ride was longer. The experience overall is good. It lets you do all the things you wanted to experience in Rovaniemi. Although the van was a little cramped for 8 persons, but overall, it was good for the price. I think they are the only ones that allow solo travelers to join the experience, since most of the rides are needed to be in pairs. Luckily, they paired me up with another solo traveler too.”
