- star2hip5650 contributionsGreat experienceGreat experience would definitely book again. Good fun! Guide was very patient with us both. Highly recommend for beginners.Written 12 August 2024
- karengH672KY0 contributionsMemorable fishing experienceIt was so much fun, memorable tour and worth every penny. Highly recommend! As beginners to fishing our guide (Utsav) was very accommodating and patient in explaining the steps in fishing. We were also provided with the appropriate clothing and gears. The trail going to the fishing site although tricky was memorable including our dinner on the island. There were some mosquitoes but the insect repellent was helpful. Even if we weren’t able to caught a fish, we still get to enjoy the activity, the quiet and beautiful scenery.Written 5 August 2024

- marysH2092RN0 contributionsGreat summer adventure!Great adventure and service! I traveled to Rovaniemi solo and was taken care of extremely well. The ATV adventure and reindeer farm were great fun, and the trip to see Santa Claus was a hoot. I recommend the agency highly.Written 9 July 2024

- 83renatinha0 contributionsGreat tourWe made a midnight sun tour with Lapland Welcome and Anthony, the guide, was awesome! It was a little bit shadowy but the place was incredible and the guide was a witty and gentle person. I recommend the tourWritten 22 June 2024
- PaulsAust0 contributionsBreathtaking and peaceful sunset. Must do if in RovaniemiWow. If travelling to Rovaniemi in Autumn or Summer this is a must do. Anthony is very knowledgeable. You’re driven to the area, then it’s about an easy picturesque walk for about 30 minutes. The view is amazing and you can never tire of it. I enjoyed the snack that was provided after we watched the sunset. They drop you off to your hotel afterwards (around 0230).Written 2 June 2024
- Sachin06100 contributionsFamily trip and loved the Santa village tripReally an amazing experience trip to the Santa village, no rush of course as off season so get to meet Santa and have a nice chat with him. Crossed the artic circle line and got a certificate on it. Utsav from lapland tours was a great guide and enjoyed the morning to afternoon excursion. Recomment it highly. Send a post card, bought some circular playing cards from the Santa's post office.Written 22 May 2024
- 264riyana0 contributionsFraudsThis company and owner are FRAUDS. It’s more than a month since we took this tour and are back to Dubai also. I have been following up since 11th March every single day since two weeks asking them to share the pictures that were taken on their DSLR. 1st they said that the pictures have come blurry. Then they share some of their existing pictures which are already posted on Instagram. Then the they sent some other groups pictures. Trip advisor has awarded them some most photogenic award. I think you should review it and take back the award. ITS the WORST Tour company in Roveniemi LAP - T64275081 BR-1113126025Written 14 April 2024
- Jav3r1a0 contributionsJust because it’s cheap doesn’t mean it’s goodI wish I had read all the reviews before making this booking. All the bad reviews are true . They are not worth it . They will say it’s a small tour but in actual they will stuff a lot of people on 2 buses and take you a lane owned by company . Which is bit further away from North hence reduced the chance of seeing lights . . Made no effort whatsoever to chase the lights or to time it properly . There were brilliant lights around that time and all other tours saw them and we were unlucky and got stuck with them .Written 9 April 2024
- ianmP4809WJ0 contributionsWonderful 2 day trip!What an amazing trip 2 massive days on a snowmobile, over 100km each day, some driving quite easy, at other times very challenging, learnt so much, Sami, thank you so much! Stayed overnight at a great hotel with a sauna, food was great, nothing but positive feedback Not for the faint hearted by if you like adventure this is for you...I was so impressed I'm thinking about coming back and maybe doing a 5-6 day adventureWritten 4 March 2024
- Franco2440 contributionsIncredible nightWeather in Rovaniemi was extremely cloudy and snowing. We decided anyway to proceed without any hope. Our guide Shoja studied weather condition using many satellite images and found a location suitable to catch northern lights. After 2.5 hours driving under the clouds we found ourself in the middle of nowhere under an incredible sky full of stars, and suddenly northern lights appeared in front of us. Shoja is a professional photograph and made amazing pictures of all of us. Thanks again Lapland Welcome for this amazing experienceWritten 3 March 2024

- fjorden0 contributions'it is forbidden by law'We booked the longest tour 'further into the wilderness' which requires participants to have snowmobiling driving experience. Although we would give our guide four stars for trying really hard to make us happy in any way he could. Still the review has only two stars, because just after the right the start after driving with the green key for a bit (which has a speed limiter and is normal practice also at the other companies to evaluate driving skills) we were told that although we were good drivers that tourists can only drive with the green key as it 'is forbidden by law' to let them drive with the grey key. Actually we did only see less than half of the 'further into the wilderness' compared to the tours we had done before (since we liked it so much, this was our third full day snowmobiling) and the guides quickly changed keys. Since they claim that it is forbidden by law for tourists to drive normal speed we would recommend to check carefully before booking with them or go somewhere else if speed >30km/hr is your thing. Anything else is just fine, good clothing provided, helpful guide, etc.Written 28 February 2024

The snowmobile ride was cancelled last minute, without any communication. Wasn’t the best experience, so think twice before booking.

These things happen especially in the peak season if one of us gets sick. And lately many of us suffered seasonal flu so we run out of capacity. We try our best in organising services for all people. Also the animal farms are all the time fully booked now in peak season.

Wonderful excursion with our great guide Paul!!! Luckily, we were alone with him, he took the time to explain everything to us, we were able to take several breaks to take photos. The barbecue was excellent, in a little tippi lost in the middle of nowhere.
We recommend this experience, it’s well worth the price! Thanks again to Paul!!!!!
