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.

    I have used Snow Fun Safaris for eight years now, and never once has a trip left me disappointed. The guides are great, instructions are clear responses to incidents suitable, and the routes taken are safe yet amazing. The office staff are also very welcoming, friendly and entertaining and can often be bought a drink at Selvä Pyy of an evening.

    We are thrilled with Lapland Safari.
    We had a snowmobile safari today and a great guide.
    Francoise gave us a very professional briefing, a great tour and was very attuned to the group.
    At the end he gave us tips for tomorrow's tour alone with the snowmobile and dropped us off in front of a restaurant on the way back.
    Thank you very much, anytime again.

    We were recommended by a local guide to contact 7 Fells Up for off-trail snowshoeing tours, and it was a great tip that we happily pass on to others. We did two snowshoeing tours with them in mid March after speaking with their wonderful organizer, Sabrina. The first adventure was an evening tour to see the northern lights from a higher elevation. As the snow kept falling we were never able to see any northern lights, but it was a great opportunity to try off-trail snowshoeing in very fresh snow with our friendly guide, Adrien, who also brought along blueberry juice, Sabrina’s famous homemade cloudberry cakes, and sausages to grill over the fire in one of the area’s many “kotas”. Our second snowshoeing tour was a half-day event up one of the “fells”. Our very spirited and knowledgable Finnish guide Päivi led the way as we snowshoed off-trail upwards through the forest to a kota just below the tree line where we took a break for grilled reindeer sandwiches and more of Sabrina’s cloudberry cakes. They are to die for by the way. After that we continued up over a moonlike landscape to the top of the fell through untouched snow, beautiful sunshine and stunning panoramic views of Lapland. At the top we had a 360° view and could spot all of the other nearby fells. We then descended the mountain taking a different route while Päivi gladly told us more about the wilderness and the wildlife we were seeing, including a soaring Sea Eagle, an evasive, hard-to-spot Willow grouse and a Northern Woodpecker just meters away from us but too busy pecking for insects to pay us any attention. She also explained to us the concept of Kello trees. Both snowshoeing tours were true highlights of our trip to Ylläs, and we too highly recommend 7 Fells UP. Thank you Sabrina for everything. Vielen Dank für alles. Tusind tak!

    The activities were all organized by our travel agency and we were very lucky to have all of them at the Due North Safaris:
    Aka 360 on snowmobile (1 person / snowmobile), a half-day visit at a huskies farm (incl. apprix. 90 min of sledge driving) and a reindeer tour under the stars (unfortunately no northern lights this night). The guides are great, the timing are perfect and we really enjoyed every minutes of each activity!
    They provide you very warm equipment as well! Definitely recommend this to anyone! Thanks again to all guides and drivers 😊

    Amazing service - friendly personal and very helpful.

    Initially visited for some help with directions to another trip we had booked. The gentleman I saw was so nice - he called a taxi for us as we misjudged how far away the venue was and also tried to call the venue to say we'd be late.

    We decided to return and hire bikes a few days later and hadn't made a reservation but the same gentleman saw to us and managed to secure the last 3 bikes. This gentleman was so so helpful and showed us a few trails we could follow.

    Would highly recommend and one of the friendliest places you could go for customer service! Brilliant place.

    We had two unforgettable adventures with Ylläs Experiences in March, both arranged by our very nice guide, Jana. The first was a magical reindeer ride in the snowy forest from a farm run by Mikka and Sanna and their two dogs. They taught us about these beautiful antlered-animals, took us on a traditional sleigh ride and allowed us to interact with and feed the females and young ones. The second experience was an evening snowmobile tour to a wilderness hut with dinner, sauna and ice-bath. Jana and her team mate Mikko went out of their way to prepare the food according to our special needs, and were always very accommodating. The sauna and ice-bath experience was a real highlight. Jana made herself available to take pictures and give advice. There was never any time pressure during the entire outing. During the return ride in the dark, we stopped at a clearing in the forest to marvel at the starry skies just as some northern lights appeared on the horizon. We definitely recommend both tours and our guide Jana.

    Spent two days on (whitewater) kayaking trips with Jussi: first with packrafts and then with kayaks. Everything was planned (and customised!) as to our wishes and executed perfectly. Jussi was great in instructing us on safety and proper technique, and we enjoyed hearing about Lapland wilderness and regional customs. Perfect light lunches in between, too!

    Contacting Jussi was easy and his replies were quick. Highly recommended!

    We went to Akaslompolo with Lapland Travel in January 2020. Everything was perfectly taken care of. Every activity was organised and even the extra activities fitted the travelscheme perfectly.
    The travelguides were pleasant people and always down for a chat and most importantly, always there to answer your questions. I would totally recommend to travel with Lapland Travel! I might even go to Lapland again, someday!

    We had a tour of the farm at perhaps the worst possible conditions - it was -32C and the five-year old had not experienced nearly as severe colds before causing a sort of shock to her. The host, however, saved the day by his uplifting and friendly attitude and behaviour. It was a visit to be treasured in our minds.

    Fantastic guided snowshoe trek up the fells of the Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park.
    Very knowledgeable guide (Maria) who frequently checked on the group to make everyone was ok.
    This was my first time on snowshoes, based on this experience I would certainly use Q5 Safaris again.
