Relaxed excursion - It was a very relaxed trip (also suitable for children) with 6 participants plus guide Ana. The group size is - as always with Wild About Lapland - to be emphasized, because in a small group of max. 8 people plus guide it is much more personal and individual (no mass processing, as we experienced with another operator with 20 to 40 people [booked through the travel agency]). Our guide Ana was great! She knew the animals by name and could tell their story (where does the animal come from, why is it here). Ana also sometimes used calls to attract the animals and lure them over to us. She also knew the names of the animals. All in all, it was a great and relaxed day. We would/will happily go on tour with this operator again at any time. Thank you very much for your extraordinary commitment, from the reception in the local office) as well as before and during the tours - that is really remarkable!

Zoo - We did the tour even it was just the two of us. Our guide and Emily was very good in spoting the animals and tells us a lot about them. Afterwards she showed us videos of the animals we didn’t seen. Because we were just a little group our guide took a lot of time to show us the zoo.

Guides know where to find the animals - We knew we were visiting in low season but it was a treat to basically get a private tour of the park! Our guide was knowledgeable and knew where to spot the animals. Lunch was great. Transportation was comfortable. It was an all around good experience.

Zoo in Narnia setting - Seeing Arctic animals and birds in outdoor enclosures, covered in snow, was amazing. It was as close as seeing them in their natural environment as you could get. I felt like I was walking around a zoo in Narnia. The park is a reasonable size and took about 90 minutes to walk slowly around. Our Spanish guide, his name is William translated to English, escorted us around the park pointing out the animals and giving information as we went. He was very good and interesting to talk to. As you walk fairly slowly around I found that by the end of the tour I was getting quite cold so make sure you have sufficient warm clothes or take the offer of the tour company overalls and boots.

Full arctic animals' experience! - I've visited Rovaniemi with my family (+5 year child) and it was very important for us to take tours that will be interesting for our child. Wild about Lapland proposed the trip to Ranua Wildlife Park and we also had a Hunting Northern Lights by Reindeers tour booked for the evening. That was a blast!! Our child enjoyed both tours very much, as did we. In Ranua park, the preservation center, you can see a lot of different article animals - polar bear, polar fox, wolves, wolverines, owls, and many more. Some of the animals were rescued and now live in the park. This is not a zoo, it is a big territory where you can observe all the animals, very interesting. This tour also included lunch, so it was a nice addition. Later in the evening, we attended another tour with Wild About Lapland - the Northern Light Reindeer hunt, That was amazing! We went to a farm with reindeer and they told us a lot about the life of the animals on the farm and how they are breed. Riding on the reindeer on the frozen lake and hearing only to the sound of the forest and steps of the animals - super cute. If you are lucky - you will see the glimpse of the northen lights as well!
