Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This experience was absolutely one of our very favorite during our trip to Finland, Norway and Sweden. It was our first time in an authentic sauna, and then the cold outside, and the icy lake. The sauna was incredible, the moist heat felt wonderful, and adding the provided essential oil in was just perfect. Thank you to Alex who had prepared the sauna to be just at the right temperature when we stepped in. I thought it would be really cold outside when we went out for a break, but it felt amazing. It was a beautiful evening and my favorite place was the swing right outside the sauna where I could gently swing and enjoy the beautiful surroundings, the quiet sounds of nature, before heading back into the sauna. When it was time to head into the house for dinner, the fragrant aromas of Tanya's kitchen met us. We knew that there was a delight awaiting us! And, it was! Tanya had prepared a delicious feast of salmon, potatoes, and red pepper strips with a dill sauce that was incredible. And, cookies!! All of this dining inside their sweet home on the lake. After dinner, Alex and Tanya came back in the house and we visited for a while, asking them questions and they sharing a verbal and tangible picture of their life here. It was an incredible evening and one that I would definitely, definitely return to if ever back in this area!! Alex and Tanya, thank you for this wonderful experience!

By far our most memorable and photogenic excursion in Finland. When we look back on our trip, this is the true standout - an authentic experience, mesmerizing views, and charismatic hosts who welcomed us into their homes and taught us about Finnish culture. If you are hesitant about the ice dipping experience - I highly recommend you give it a try as my body has never felt better!

What a great evening! If you want a unique experience that you will always remember this is for you. After warming up in the wood sauna, we all took a dip in the freezing lake. It was so refreshing and invigorating - we couldn't believe how good we felt afterwards. The evening concluded with a delicious salmon dinner. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Tanya picked us up at our hotel & drove us to her beautiful family owned private property with an incredible view! The sauna has already been heating up since 2pm that day by her husband. Since it is a traditional Finnish sauna, it is heat up by burning wood alone which requires a much longer time. In the sauna, there’s a private area for changing & refreshments. Inside the sauna, She’s provided us essential oils for the sauna which gave the extra relaxation. We also did a few snow angels & jumped into the frozen lake 2x which is on my bucket to-do list. The smoked salmon was delicious!!! There were hot berry juice; bread; fresh vegetable; baked potatoes & ginger cookies. Everything was absolutely fantastic; Tanya is so gracious & friendly. We enjoyed every minute of it!!! Don’t think twice to book with Nordic Adventure!!

We had a great evening with Tanya. The sauna experience was amazing - traditional finish sauna close to the lake. The surrounding was breathtaking. The dinner was delicious.. We recommend it strongly to everyone in Lappland. /Maya and Javi

We absolutely loved this experience. The host was very welcoming and had lots of interesting things to tell us about finish culture. The setting was very scenic and traditional. Once we plucked up the courage for the dip into the lake we loved it and ended up going back for more! Very fun experience.

The most amazing experience in Lapland! We were warmly welcomed and had the most relaxing sauna with lake dips. We felt the true authentic Finnish sauna experience. It was incredible. Follow that with and amazing traditional meal served in cozy surroundings. Alex & Tanya were wonderful hosts. We cannot recommend this enough, you will not be disappointed.

I highly recommend this tour! Not only is it fun to sit in the sauna and jump in the pond (it sounds scary with the arctic temperatures but you can do it), Alex and Tanja were so knowledgeable on topics such as the Northern Lights, traditional foods (it was delicious), culture and so much more. I think what really makes this experience above and beyond is how personal you feel though. We went in a small group of 8 and it makes all the difference. Sign up for this tour, you won't regret it!

This is absolutely amazing!! The sauna is traditional wood fire with hot stones. Very secluded and private location. There’s frozen lake you can dip into as well.
And it finished with a very traditional meal in a proper Finnish house.
Had a very very good time. Cannot recommend enough.
We only had 4 people in the whole group and it was perfect.

I just got back from the most amazing winter evening experience! Our guides Pedro and Tanja were absolutely wonderful! We did sauna and dip into the lake 4 times! Had the most delicious smoked salmon dinner with glogi and a great, educational conversation with Pedro. I will be coming back in the summer and I hope Pedro and Tanja will be here! Thank you for one of the best evenings of my life!!!!
