Nice tour. - Good tour. Nice to be able to wear those good winter clothes. Nice place to wait for the Northern Lights, unfortunately we didn't see them. The only downside is that they didn't pick me up at my place of stay because it was too close to the center, luckily the guide was kind enough to drop me off there. I didn't feel like walking there alone at night.

Absolutely magical! Must try it out. - We had a fabulous time on this tour. We saw the Northern Lights throughout our tour and enjoyed a great picnic in the wilderness. They even accommodated for a speacial diet request and made sure all of us were at ease the whole time. I need to mention our guides for this trip. Byron and Tommy - they were funny, great entertainers, and very helpful. Tommy even helped my daughter, who wasn't having a great time (it was -14 degrees after all, which is a first for us), finally have a blast! The experience was absolutely magical and the food was delicious. You must try out hot berry juice-it is surprisingly yum! We had a blast at this tour and hope you do too. Thanks again, Safartica, for wonderful memories!

An evening full of pleasantness - It was a really pleasant evening in the wilderness with a bonfire, sausages and the most delicious hot juice. We saw some northern lights although the conditions weren't perfect, but our guide, Lina did a great job to make us feel wonderfully and we could connect with the quietness and peaceful evening nature.

Satisfied with the valuable experience - I participated in this optional tour of a package tour. Unfortunately, it was raining as we left the city office, praying that it would stop soon. The rain didn't stop even when we arrived at the site. We were given sausages and marshmallows to roast in a big tent in the dark. In the end, we weren't able to see the Northern Lights, but we were able to hear about Finland and the lives of Finnish people from a Japanese person living there. It was very good to hear valuable stories with a real sense of everyday life, different from the information you can get on the internet in Japan.
