Get ready for a full day adventure tour which includes only the best Lappish experiences you can imagine! Visit Ranua Wildlife park, go to a traditional Lappish wood burning sauna, try floating in a private lake and enjoy real Lappish countryside.
This is our ultimate Lappish adventure where we'll try to show you the best of Lapland in just one day.
Our day starts with hotel pick up and a one hour drive to Ranua Wildlife Park. In the summer you can expect to see animals playing in their natural habitat, and during the winter find them playing in the snow! There are over 50 animal species in this Zoo. See polar bears, gray wolves, geese, owls, foxes, lynxes, minks and brown bears, and learn more about their lives in the Arctic circle. A walk through the Wildlife park will take several hours (trail is approx. 3km long).
Following our wildlife safari is lunch (buffet style) after which we'll take a drive to our true Lappish Hideaway. The trip does not take more than 40 minutes.
Finland has lakes, thousands of lakes. It's to the lake, where the Finn escapes during spring, summer and fall and it's by the lake where he most enjoys his sauna. It's here that he peels off the restlessness and tension of city life with a "cooking" in the sauna and a breathtaking plunge in the lake. You are welcome to our private arctic lake!
It’s time to prepare for the next part of this adventure - floating in a private arctic lake under the Lappish sky.
Once we give you some tips, go through safety instructions, and dress you up in our rescue suits, you can take a dip in the icy lake and enjoy the nature around you. Swimming takes place in an icy hole, and we guarantee that you won't be cold! In fact, you will feel amazing. The suits will keep you warm so you can relax and enjoy.
In the summer season, you will float in a lake under the polar sun, as we have polar days here with white nights. We will dress you up in rescue floating suits made of light, waterproof material that will keep you dry and warm. In the winter, you will float in an ice hole (lake is frozen!) and let yourself loose while you enjoy this peaceful moment.
Traditional Finnish Sauna, built among the pine trees where the smell of natural resin can join the löyly (steam) to fill the lungs with a pure and healthy scent. The Finnish sauna is praised for its rejuvenating powers and health benefits. By interchanging hot and cold temperatures, i.e. warming up in the sauna and then jumping in the icy water, you improve your circulation, skin, and pump up the adrenaline! Intrigued? Your turn to try it!
After the sauna we will enjoy traditional Finnish dinner, set up an open fire, and chit chat.
This all-day adventure lasts for 9+ hours, and it shows you the most fabulous fun Lapland has to offer. If you want to make the most of your time in Rovaniemi, this full day tour is an excellent choice. Keep in mind that we will do our best to make you comfortable, warm and entertained.

2. If it’s really cold, –20 or below, wear an additional fleece layer on top of your thermals. Another pair of socks, preferably woolly or thermal, will keep your feet warm.
3. Wear pants with thermal lining. Don’t underestimate the importance of a neck warmer or a scarf. Slip into your winter boots and do them up well.
