Ride your own snowmobile through Lapland forests near Rovaniemi, with warm gear, safety briefings, photo stops, and kids in sleds.
“We really enjoyed snowmobiling. The company provided us with all the warm clothing, but I recommend wearing all your warm layers (thermal underwear, etc.) and putting on your own gloves underneath the ones they provide. We rode for about 1 hour and 40 minutes. Our guide, Adrian, was so good and even took photos for us (a big thank you for that!). On-site, they also offer snowmobile insurance for €20 — make sure to purchase it. Our expectations matched the reality, and we would definitely come back again.”

Guided 2-hour snowmobile safari in Lapland wilderness from Rovaniemi, with gear, instructions, and a silent break. $129.
“If you are looking for a thrilling winter experience, this is it. The scenery is amazing and riding snowmobiles is so much fun. Just beware that it can be icy and bumpy so it's not as relaxing as you may imagine. I took a 14-year-old as a passenger and he had a great time. But - despite rather mild temperatures - his hands were really cold at the end. The driver can switch on the heating on both handles, but you may want to pack some hand warmers for the passenger.”
Snowmobile Safari through the Lappish forest from Rovaniemi. Hotel pickup, winter gear, and about 1 hour of riding in Lapland.
“The 1 hour Snowmobile Safari started at 9.40am with pick-up and drop-off did not occur until 4.40pm (7hours for less than 1 hour of driving). We were picked-up by friendly staff and taken into the office (9 minute drive from our accommodation). From there we had to argue to be given the proctive clothes that were promised. An hour later we hoped into the Mini vans and we weren't told until they started driving that the fields were going to be a 1 hour 20 minute drive each way. There were no toliets available to get food or drinks for lunch etc. The snowmobile ride itself was ok, very slow…”

“A brilliant activity! We were cared for very well by Wild Lapland as a company. We were helped into the skis and it was explained to us that the walk and distance is dependent on the fitness and experience levels of the customers. The scenery was absolutely outstandingly beautiful. Everywhere you looked it was beautiful.”
