The itinerary was packed. We went to play with huskies and reindeer sleds early in the morning, and then visited the snow animal park to see polar animals, including polar bear reindeer, arctic owls, and some special local species, for about 90 minutes. It included a buffet lunch at the zoo, the quality of which was acceptable, and then a one-hour drive back to the center. The downside is that the husky sled and reindeer sled only went around once, for about 1 minute and 5 minutes respectively, which was too short and insufficient for a good experience. Considering the price, I don't think it was cost-effective, but the tour guide service was okay.

we had a wonderful experience. nobody booked the same time slot so it felt like a private tour, our guide Jeremy did a fantastic job and very enthusiastic in what he does. I've red few bad reviews, but still went ahead and booked, I'm glad I did. one of our highlights. THANK YOU!

Our guide is very friendly, patient, and supportive. Even if you are the first time skiing, he is always willing to teach and help. We had a very wonderful experience.

Big thanks to the guide Gabor for all the help today. Skiing is really physically demanding and definitely a sweaty activity. As a first-time skier, I learned a lot and fell many times, but it was a truly unique and memorable experience :)

Went at the end of December. Such a memorable experience! The trip started with boarding the ship at sunrise and disembarking at sunset. The whole time the weather was clear and sunny. The on-board activities were enough to fill the 3-hour boarding time. Besides floating in the sea in lobster suits, you could also take pictures on the deck and visit the captain's cabin and machine room. There were three choices for lunch on board: meatballs with mashed potatoes, salmon rice, and vegan pasta, along with a bowl of soup (salmon soup / tomato vegetable soup) and garlic bread. The food wasn't particularly tasty; the meatballs seemed boiled and tasted normal, and the salmon rice was also just okay. The outdoor area on the ship was very cold, but luckily there was hot GLOGG available to warm the stomach and hands.

While the price is a little high, it's a fantastic experience! The staff on board are friendly and courteous, and they do their best to assist customers! In addition to trying on the lobster suit, the staff also gave us a tour of the ship's facilities and helped us understand how the whole ship works, which was very cool! A big thank you to our Nepalese service staff, who were very helpful!

Highly recommend to book this tour if first time going to Finland. For a short stay in Rovaniemi, this tour covers the essentials. Negative points: (1) The only downside is that there is no time to rest and have a meal as the queue for the ride is long so last batch needed to rush after finishing the ride and (2) the departure time is same for many tours so we wasted time in changing the clothes due to many people going by tour at same time
