Beautiful & Thrilling trip through an arctic wonderland - Riding the snowmobile through the forest was exhilarating and beautiful. It was amazing getting to see so much of the beautiful land and snow covered trees and really fun. We went on a two seater as a couple and had a great time - they give you opportunity to switch drivers half way through if you want to so you both get to experience it. They provided delicious snacks and a hot drink after. I recommend taking really thick insulated gloves as my hands were frozen! I would 100% do this again - what a highlight!

Winter wonderland - A really great company to deal with. Our tour guide was so helpful gave us lots of information on surrounding areas. Pick up & drop off option was very convenient. We drove through the forest into a setting sun in -29 degrees it was an incredible experience
We were only 1s on tour that particular evening
Everyone in our group ( 7, aged 7 -43 ) of us really enjoyed it
On drop off back to city we were given some lovely hot berry juice & cookies
I highly recommend this company & will definitely use them again next year

Great experience and excellent guides - We originally booked for a full day snowmobiling but the Nordic Unique Travels contacted us the day before and let us know they couldn't provide this but could provide the 2-3 option, which we accepted. In April there was always a chance that there wouldn't be enough snow for the tour anyway, so we were aware that there could be an issue.
As it turned out, the 3 hours was perfect. Snowmobiling is more difficult than it looks but it was brilliant. We drove across a frozen lake and through the wooded areas around it and enjoyed every minute. The guides were constantly vigilant and stopped every now and then to make sure none of us ended up too far away. They also gave a full outline on safety and guidelines before we left. The only name I remember was Paula (who picked us up) and she was friendly and enthusiastic, as were all the guides.
Highly recommended.

Unforgettable experience! - Adrenaline and fun: two words that characterized the snowmobile ride in the forests of Rovaniemi. Breathtaking landscape and excellent guides, in particular Fotios who, in addition to leading the group, also took some beautiful souvenir photos of us!

Perfect experience - It was a very nice experience to drive a snowmobile through Finnish Lapland. The guide did it very well. Clear explanation in a humorous way. Groups are not too large.

Beautiful way to see the woodlands of Lapland - Very fun and bumpy but glad we did it. Beautiful scenery. It took an hour to get ready and get there to then ride an hour. God hot blueberry juice at the end of the tour. There were a lot of people on the tour and they managed it pretty well.

A good beginners exercise for first time snowmobilers. - As first timers at snowmobiling it took us a little while to gain our confidence. We appreciated our guide Sergio putting us in the slower group at the first break. From there on we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Worst experience ever would not recommend - 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 with a top speed of 35km p/hr reached. Most of the time it was about 12km p/hr. The scenery was beautiful however it took way too long to get there with no notice of the long drive. Would recommend other snowmobile rides closer to Rovaniemi.

Disappointed - The tour was not through a Lappish forest as you’d expect. Most of the tour is going on a path beneath a power line on a very bumpy track. We then do one lap around an empty field and return back on the same path. Time spend on the snowmobiles is no more than 45 minutes. I’ve been on other tours with snowmobiles in Rovaniemi, this was definitely the worst.
