Super interesting activity! - We went in the night (around 9.30pm) on Christmas Eve (24 Dec), and there were about 20 of us, split into 2 sessions to make it a comfortable floating experience. Gear providing was very clean. The guides were very knowledgeable and very mindful of our safety, constantly updating us throughout the whole process so that we are aware of what's happening. Ice floating can be quite scary for non-swimmers (like myself) but the guides were very assuring and made sure that we are safe. Photos and videos taken by the guide turned out great (as we couldn't bring our phones into the water). We then had marshmallows, cookies, and hot juice by the fire and that was welcoming after being out in the cold. Highly recommend this activity!

Incredible! Unforgettable!!! - An incredible experience! Highly recommended and to repeat! We are a family of 5, maybe for the little one who is 7 years old it was too much, but for those older than 12 and 13 years old it was an unforgettable experience!

Ice float-the ultimate relax - This was such a beautiful experience. Pick up was easy, drive to the site was comfy and the actual activity was great! We didn’t see the Aurora, but it didn’t matter, the floating was so relaxing and I stayed in for 45min, no rush (we did have a smaller group). Our guides were really nice too. After the float, I sat in the teepee by the fire and had hot drinks and snacks. Would highly recommend this experience!

Enchanting unusual activity - Extraordinary experience, in an enchanting setting! Among all of our activities, this is the most unusual and intimate in which we have participated (couple +2 adult children). The site is delightful, chalet and kotta in a magical setting, which is not always the case with other providers. Julia and Joachim were enthusiastic and allowed us to have a memorable evening! I recommend this unusual activity with complete confidence: as surprising as it may seem, the combination keeps us warm, dry, and we have the impression of floating in space on a cozy mattress! Unfortunately no aurora borealis that evening, the sky was overcast.

Icefloating super! - We booked all our excursions with Safartica and they are all top notch! Who would have ever thought of swimming in the Arctic sea? Super experience and you won't get wet!! You stay in the bath for up to 20 minutes then your body starts to get very cold and you go back to putting your thermal clothing back on! Thanks to Tia and Aleandro our super guides 🎉

The best guides - Pietro and Noah, the best guides we could have! We were a group of 12 people and they took many photos and were very attentive to us. Super friendly and pleasant at all times. Also, I forgot to take my gloves and they took care of bringing them to the city for me. 10/10! I hope to repeat in the future. Highly recommended.

Nice, but the suit range has room for improvement. - Good excursion, but there were no dry suits for small people, so my wife got cold very quickly. Too bad, otherwise it was good. Very nice staff
