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.

We went on a nothern light tour in Rovaniemi.
The guide kept saying that he had tips on a spot where it was clear, even though all forecasts Said that it was cloudy. We drove around for 4 hours with no result, and the guide did not inform us, so we did not really know what was going on.
We did not get the local snacks that was invalides in the tour and the next they we where told that other nothern light tour companies had cancelled their tours, as it was unrealistic to see the nothern lights, due to the cloudy wheater.

Not recommended. Unfortunately, the weather was very cloudy and we were not able to find a clear sky and see the northern light.

The guide spend an hour after picking us up to drive around to stop different places. We are not informed why we stopped or where we were going. At some stops we picked up other tour members, some stops he just disappeared for 10-15 minutes before returning. When we find drove out on the hunt. The drive stopped 3-4 different place went out of the car for 10-15 minutes, came back and drove on. He didn’t tell us where we were going or why. we didn’t get any of the promised snacks and we had to ask what the plan was multiple times.

We ended up driving around for about 5 hours. I understand the northern light isn’t guaranteed. But some information during the drive would have been nice also since the weather was so cloudy all weekend. It would have been better customer service to cancel the trip or ask if we were interested to driving further away. Also the lack of information was really frustrating. It felt like an evening/nights waste on our holiday.

Do not recommend. Booked a husky sled ride with them but they did not pick me up, had me waiting in the cold for more than 45 min. Thankfully Get Your Guide refunded my money, but given it was a short holiday in Rovaniemi, this was a waste of my time, and opportunity cost.

Hello, I am sorry, but this information is not correct. Our guide was at the location on time and he picked up another 6 customers from the same meeting point at the same time that had booked the same tour as you did. When you could not find you. He contacted me and I tried to call you, but your phone number was not working. He waited there for another 15 minutes, until 11am, but then when he could not find you he could not let other customers wait longer. Unfortunately, you have never tried to contact us that there is a problem with the pickup. Get Your Guide called me 1h after the scheduled pickup time that you are waiting for the guide. Unfortunately, it was too late to go back and pick you up. However, to show our goodwill, we told GetYourGuide to provide you with a full refund, which is not a standard as you were not at the pickup place at the scheduled time and it was impossible to contact you.

Good experience for us and yes we managed to see the northern light. The tour guide is friendly and willing to go all the way to find the aurora lights for us.

1 day before my original planned date (25 Oct), Parpalandia Tour contacted me and suggest me to change 1 day later due to the bad weather (heavily snowing and rain) coming, We really appreciate this type of flexibility and kind gesture. Thank you.

But for the communication on the time pick up, I think this area need to improve more as i need to check the timing with the tour company twice.

it took about 50minute to go to the husky farm from rovaniemi city

husky ride took about an hour and wasvery enjoyable and fun. 4could ride at a time.
you can steer the ride and huskies were so energetic and eager to run fast that many brakings were needed. guides were kind enough and warm coats were given.

after one hour ride we waited for an hour because the other 4guys took turn and
went out for their ride. meanwhile we spend time with tour guide in a hut eating
sausage and juice. we had a good time.

Fantastic experience! We had a great Husky tour in the south west of Rovaniemi, followed by a nice barbecue and interesting stories from our guide José who told us a lot about finish traditions and history!

All in all, I can highly recommend this tour, especially with José.
