Whether you're stepping into a wood-fired sauna for the first time or looking forward to a refreshing lake plunge afterward — we’ve got you covered.
Here are the most frequently asked questions about joining our authentic sauna experiences in the Arctic wilderness.
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.
Towels are provided for all sauna guests. Swimwear is not included, so please bring your own if you'd prefer to wear it. You can also wear a towel if you don’t have a swimsuit.
Yes, our sauna experiences are typically mixed-gender. However, all guests are provided space and privacy, and swimsuits or towels are commonly worn. If you prefer a private sauna experience, just let us know - we can arrange it!
No, being naked is not required. In Finland, it's common to go nude in private saunas, but during our tours, guests usually wear swimsuits or use provided towels. You can choose what’s most comfortable for you - privacy and respect are always maintained.
All our sauna tours include a changing room and access to cold and hot water, true to authentic Lapland style. However, there is no full indoor shower at the venue. Most guests enjoy the sauna experience and then shower comfortably back at their hotel after the tour.
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.
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!
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.
Yes, most of our tours can be booked as private experiences upon request. Private tours offer greater flexibility, personalized attention from your guide, and a more intimate atmosphere — perfect for families, couples, or small groups. If you're interested in a private version of any tour, just let us know during the booking process, and we’ll be happy to arrange it.
Many modern smartphones can capture the Northern Lights using night mode or a long exposure setting. Our guides will help you adjust your phone or camera settings for the best possible shot. For stunning photos, we recommend bringing a tripod and using manual settings.
We’re happy to help you prepare for your sauna adventure.
