Rovaniemi

We had a very comfortable stay at Scandic Helsinki Aviapolis near Helsinki Airport. The location was ideal for our early flight, and the free shuttle bus to and from the airport made our departure effortless and stress-free. The room was clean, cosy and well suited for a restful night before flying. We especially enjoyed the excellent breakfast buffet with a wide selection, which was perfect before our early start. The staff were friendly and efficient, and check-in/out was smooth. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone travelling through Helsinki Airport — great value and very convenient!

We had a wonderful one-night stay at Aito Igloo Resort and Spa in Rovaniemi while celebrating our anniversary, and the entire experience was truly magnificent. They thoughtfully decorated our room and even surprised us with a small souvenir gift, which was such a lovely and memorable touch. Our package also included two complimentary hours each day at the Finnish sauna and spa, which was an incredible experience—relaxing, authentic, and the perfect way to unwind in the Arctic setting. The breakfast included in our stay was delicious with great variety and quality. Staying here felt like being in a true winter wonderland. The igloo experience, the peaceful snowy landscape, and the warm hospitality created an unforgettable atmosphere. Overall, the staff, the service, and the entire experience were amazing. I would definitely recommend staying at this resort to anyone visiting Rovaniemi and looking for a unique and memorable Arctic getaway.

I går aftes deltog vi i denne tur, og vores guider Jack og Judith tog sig så vidunderligt af vores familie på fire (inklusive to ældre forældre over 70)! Jack forklarede de videnskabelige principper i stor detalje under lejrbålsbarbecue'en, mens vi nød maden og lyttede til hans historier. Atmosfæren var så varm og hyggelig. Det, der imponerede os mest, var Jacks flydende sprogfærdigheder i mandarin, engelsk og kantonesisk. Mine forældre taler Hakka, og han talte endda Hakka med dem! Han snakkede straks med mine forældre på vores hjembydialekt, hvilket fik dem til øjeblikkeligt at føle sig så tæt på og godt tilpas. Jack lærte os også tålmodigt, hvordan man fotograferer nordlyset med vores telefoner. Judith arbejdede også hårdt i den isnende kulde for at hjælpe os med at tage billeder. Både Jack og Judith var professionelle, humoristiske, opmærksomme og satte altid sikkerhed og komfort først, idet de sørgede for, at de ældre ikke blev for kolde eller trætte. Kan varmt anbefales til alle, der ønsker et mindeværdigt nordlyseventyr med familien.

Paul tog sig rigtig godt af os – han sørgede for varme drikke og snacks. Han hjalp alle med at tage professionelle billeder med sit kamera (jeg fik også nogle fantastiske billeder på min telefon!), og hans entusiasme holdt humøret højt hele natten. Hvis du skal ud for at jage nordlyset, så book en tur med Paul – han er dedikeret, vidende og gør en ekstra indsats for at sikre, at du ser lysene. Kan varmt anbefales! 10/10 ville gøre det igen.

Det var så fantastisk at jage nordlys i Finland igen! Nordlyset over søen var så smukt, og vi var heldige med vejret i dag, selvom det var meget koldt. Denne nordlysjagt var det hele værd, og bålmaden var også fantastisk! 👍

unfortunate for me not able to see the northern lights on this trip. very disappointed. however, kudos to my two guides who were trying very hard to try catch one but to no avail.

Vi blev guidet af Goudia, og hun var virkelig sød, hjælpsom og imødekommende. Hun var også i stand til at forklare de ting, vi fandt undervejs. Vi prøvede endda en masse ting der! Tak for oplevelsen.

Sjov tur, hvor vi fik set isbjørne! Denis var vores guide, meget punktlig og venlig!
