Many of our hiking tours are family-friendly and suitable for children, especially those labeled as easy or moderate. However, each child is different. Please check the individual tour page for recommended age or difficulty level. We’re also happy to advise you based on your family’s preferences.

Absolutely, bringing your own food or drinks on the tour is no problem at all! Many guests like to bring snacks or special items for their personal needs. We kindly ask that you avoid eating during transfers to keep vehicles clean and comfortable for everyone, and to be tidy and considerate when consuming food during the tour. Please note that alcoholic beverages are generally not included and may be subject to specific tour rules.

Please be on time! Our tours follow a strict schedule, and if you miss the hotel pick-up, you will not be able to join later. Arriving separately by taxi or private car is usually not possible, as it may disrupt the program and group safety. Plan ahead — we appreciate your understanding.

In most cases, regular strollers are not practical in Lapland’s snowy terrain - especially on forest trails or unpaved areas. We recommend using a baby carrier or a lightweight plastic sled (pulled by a rope), which many families find more convenient in the snow.

However, keep in mind that young children sitting still on a sled for long periods can get cold quickly. For this reason, it’s often more comfortable to keep moving or carry your child close to your body to retain warmth. If you need recommendations on what to bring or how to prepare, feel free to reach out - we’re happy to help make your family adventure enjoyable and safe!

Consumption of alcohol is not allowed before or during any activities on our tours for safety reasons. If a participant is suspected to be intoxicated, they may be refused participation in the tour. However, once the day’s activities are completed, you are welcome to relax and enjoy a drink.

For tours that include a sauna experience, we are absolutely fine if guests want to bring a small bottle of beer or similar to enjoy during the sauna. Please note that alcohol is not sold at our sauna venues, so you will need to bring your own.

Most of our nature tours follow marked trails within national parks or protected areas to ensure both safety and minimal environmental impact. In some cases, short sections may include natural terrain for a more immersive experience, always under the guidance of a professional.

Most of our tours require a minimum of two paying adults to operate. However, there are some exceptions, so please always check the specific tour description for details. Solo travelers are welcome to book; if the minimum group size is not yet met, we will confirm your tour closer to the date, suggest alternatives, or offer a private tour option.

All our tours in Lapland are designed to operate in a wide range of Arctic weather conditions - snow, wind, and cold are part of the adventure! However, your safety and comfort always come first. Our guides continuously monitor weather and trail conditions. In the event of extreme weather (e.g., temperatures below -30°C, blizzards, poor visibility), we may adjust the itinerary, shorten the tour, or replace certain elements for safety reasons.

We will always do our best to ensure you still have an enjoyable and memorable experience - even if the Northern Lights hide or the snow gets too deep!
