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.

- Harald M10 contributionsWe had a very impressive visit at the farm, learned a lot about reindeers and their farmers life. After a short ride with a reindeer sleigh we got the reindeer driver’s licence for the next 5 years.Written 30 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Iveta B54 contributionsOne of the most beautiful places in Finland. You can pick very long routes or do 1km hike straight to the rapids. Path is very accessible and pleasant and the rapids itself magical. I didnt want to leave, they were so captivating (and loud!). Beautiful place, wish we had more time for longer hike! Will be back!Written 24 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- SatuKFinland24 contributionsOrphan place for wild animals located in Kuusamo. Was nice to see that talks about animals have bad living conditions there, are wrong. If you want to see bear safely, this is a place to visit.Written 14 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ash FEpsom, UK46 contributionsMy daughters loved it here, cost is €10 (no time limit) over 4 years old and since my youngest is under 4 it was well worth it. The place is massive and there was maybe 8 other children at most at any one time so wasn't crowded at all. Allowed my daughters to be able to play on whatever they wanted at any time during the 1.5 hours they spent in there. Completely wore them out and meant we got a good night's sleep, therefore I would recommend it as highly as my eldest daughter!Written 20 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Amelia1 contributionWe did the morning feeding and it was amazing. You get to pet the reindeer, feed them, and learn about their habitat and personality. A well made product with a clear guest path - a rarity in Finland 😂
We then took the reindeer sled. Honestly, thought it would go faster and in this product you dont spend time with the reindeer. But a more traditional product, where you can imagine yourself a local in 1800’s using reindeers as your transport.Written 16 February 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We booked this location and it was great fun. We were picked up in Ruka and drove to the stables with icelandic horses.
My wife is experienced driver but I am a nitwit in horsedriving…but it was soooo much fun riding an Icelandic horse in Töllt in the forest Eastern from Kuusamo..
an absolute must for animal lovers…or horse drivers..special Thanks to Emma and our guide Reeta!!Written 22 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We experienced reindeer feeding, reindeer rides, incredible dinner prepared by the best chefs, and a sauna experience second to none! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a 5++* experience in Ruka!Written 19 March 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Meg3 contributionsThis is the third time I've attended ski school, I love it every time! Ella was my very first instructor who was brilliant and gave me so much confidence. This time I attended the ski school on my own and met the most amazing people from my group! Our instructor Sean was the best! He really supported everyone's individual needs and made us feel confident! He was super patient with us and also very funny!! We managed to make it down some reds by the end of the week with the encouragement from Sean! I can't recommend the ski school enough! Thanks for the best week!Written 7 February 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Debbie RYorkshire, UK15 contributionsThis was the most magical experience!!!
Went on my own during a weeks snowboarding and can't remember feeling so relaxed and happy for a long, long time!
The horses come first and I loved this about the place. Trek was amazing like some fantasy fairy tale. At end of trek cooked sausages on fire.
Really can't recommend enough!!!
