        3h of pure fun!
        I was looking for an adrenaline experience to share with my friend, who is passionate about motocross, so I decided to book a 3-hour snowmobiling tour for adults only. It turned out to be much more exciting than I could have ever expected: breathtaking views, comfortable group dynamics, and a complex of tracks that would make you experience different driving styles. Adrian, our guide, was always super focused on our needs and requests. He gave concise and clear driving instructions and during the trickiest parts of the tour, reminded us about all the safety measures to respect. He made us feel safe and he would always show and share his enthusiasm with us. Ask about him if you happen to book with Wild Nordic :)

        A Awesome Snowmobile tour! We loved it!
        We couldn’t leave Rovaniemi in January without doing a snowmobile tour, it’s a must do for any winter trip. I’m glad we booked this one, it was tons of fun! A big shoutout to our lead guide Patrycja, she did a wonderful job guiding us and making sure all of us were safe throughout the whole tour. Our meetup time was at 3 pm at their main office near the Santa Village and the tour lasted about 2 hours. This was a great tour and I highly recommend it if you’re visiting Rovaniemi and are looking for a great snowmobile experience! - Nolan

        Fantastic first taste of snowmobiles
        Great experience! We had booked a tour at 9am and were lucky to be the only ones. So we had a private tour and therefore got to ride a bit longer. We were given warm suits, extra socks and shoes and extra gloves. Our guide was very friendly and pleasant. I had some trepidation on the snowmobile but he put me at ease immensely from the start. As we had booked the earlier tour, we watched the sun rise in the forests. Really breathtakingly beautiful!

        Fun and beautiful experience
        The trip was amazing! The guide Damianos was super friendly and very expert. The snowmobiles are demanding to drive but very fun and rewarding. We saw breathtaking sceneries in the forest, and drove 80 km/h in frozen lakes. The winter gear they provided us was very high quality and I never felt cold, but do dress warm, as the gear goes on top of your own equipment and it can get very chilly out there!

        AVOID TOTAL DANGER & SCAM!
        Absolutely HORRENDOUS experience with this DISGUSTING company. We had the 1hr snowmobile safari in Rov on Friday. The tour was extremely dangerous should never have taken place on just pure ICE. The snowmobiles wouldn’t grip and were so hard to keep control of that it was dragging to the left. We ended up crashing into a tree. No damage to the snowmobile or us, but the staff were not bothered, they joked and laughed how we could have been worse off like a lady who broke her nose just recently. They charged 900 euros for NO DAMAGE but claimed there was. Threatened to get the police because I couldn’t pay the 900 in front of my young children who questioned why the staff “were being mean to their mummy”. They also don’t check if you have a driving license! And their drivers go on their phones whilst driving!! AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!

        Great scenic tour- Matt as our Guide
        The trip overall was perfect. It wasn’t to long or to short, the breaks weren’t to few or to many. You traveled to two locations and got to enjoy everything in between. I went with a group of girlfriends and had Matt as our guide. He was incredible- good laugh- great pictures- really positive would absolutely ask for him and do the tour again.

        Well organized, but not my favorite
        This tour was okay! We went in a group of about 10 snow mobiles (two per mobile) and went on a 2 hour tour. The entire time, we drove in a straight line on a very well traveled track. It didnt feel like we were in nature, but rather just driving these down a 'street'. I was also bored by the end...and think a shorter tour would have worked well for us. I went in winter, and didn't realize it would be pitch black the entire time we went (I was on a 2:30 tour, but we didnt go out until about 3:30 or 4pm), which for me, reduced the experience. I like being able to see the area we are driving through. If you've never snow mobiled, or have done it and LOVE IT, you would probably enjoy this. If you've snow mobiled before and are thinking this would be a good way to explore the area, I dont think you'll be as happy. The staff was AMAZING and they gave us everything we needed to stay warm and comfortable (boots, socks, gloves, jacket jumpsuit, etc.)

        Superb experience
        We had a fantastic time snowmobiling with our three wonderful guides. The clothing provided was top notch, we were toasty warm the whole time we were out. Our guides were professional but also very friendly and knowledgeable - they kept us safe and entertained!! We went through forests and over frozen lakes and the scenery we saw was absolutely stunning; this was, without any doubt, one of the most beautiful places we have ever been. Overall, our experience was superb and we can highly recommend Wild Nordic and their fabulous guides - thank you!!!

        Half Day Safari with lunch
        We went on the Half day safari which included our lunch. Our guide Yovan was excellent & took our safety seriously while showing us the beautiful winter wonderland. Lunch was delicious & in a warm & stunning restaurant in the woods. There was only another couple & we all ride motorcycles so experience was to our advantage for a great ride. The only negative is the tracks are quite rutty & the helmets aren’t heated so the screen kept freezing up so we had to ride with them open & even with 2 balaclavas & a snood, 2 of us got frostbite/ burn on our cheeks. Suggestion to the company is to purchase the heated helmets & give customers the option to pay for hire as an upgrade if they choose too. It’s a safety issue in my opinion.

      Absolutely fun! It was very long and at times scary because there would be people that drive really slowly and we would lose sight of the guide and would be trying to keep up constantly. Easy access to the place, bear in mind you have to cross the road) its right next to the gas station. Friendly staff, easy instructions, snowmobiles are fun and easy to drive. Stopped in the middle of nowhere for chocolate and sausages, quite an experience. Didnt see the lights but had loads of fun. They provide the equipment, so dont worry too much. Only thing, I would drive all customers to their hotels, not just the ones in Rovaniemi. We were located up Santas Village and had to walk to it in the dark and on the road.
      Also kids and people who desire not too rides the bikes go in the front with the guide all nicely covered with a blanket.

      To start we did not see the Northern Lights but that did not matter this trip was still great and our guide, Yngve, made the trip even better! Yngve took us on a snow mobile ride through the forest. I have two small kids and he made the experience so memorable for them. He drove past trees and made the snow fall into the snow mobile (which they loved!!) we had a campfire and roasted cinnamon buns and Yngve played with and joked with my kids the whole time it was a fantastic experience and we forgot about the disappointment of not seeing the Northern lights. We organised a number of tours in Rovaneimi with Wild Nordic. I was impressed by their professionalism and the range of activities offered on the tours. Most of all their guides and fun and made our trip to Rovanemi even more special I cannot speak more highly of this company and their tour guides!

      This tour is so much fun! Our guide explained how to use the snowmobiles before hand of course and made sure that we understood. I did this with my sister and we got to take turns driving. We did not see the northern lights as it was cloudy and snowing but regardless of whether you see them or not, it is still a great experience. We stopped few times along the way to take pictures. We had warm juice and cookies and half way through. I would definitely recommend this tour while in Rovaniemi.

      We decided to do the activity of Snowmobile to catch northern Lights. It was one of the best experiences of our lives! Due to corona te group was reduced and we had the opportunity to spend some great time surrounded by Finland's nature.
      The activity was perfectly organized. The guide, Dominick came to pick us up to the hotel and we drove to the company's office to change clothes and boots and to pick up the necessary equiptment to carry out the activity. Then he explained the driving agreement and we went out to take the snowmobile.
      Dominick taught us how to drive the snowmobile and then we began our journey. During the drive, we swoped turns to drive, so each one of us could drive. We liked that Dominick gave us a lot of freedom when organizing the tour, as he asked us how we felt more comfortable driving and how much time we would like to spend by the fire once we ate some snacks. During the barbacue, he explained a lot of things about northen lights, we also like that he knew a lot about the subject and we had the opportunity to hear some great stories about nothern lights and finnish culture. We were able to see some amazing northern lights as he took us to a great spot for wacthing them.
      As a conclusion, it was a great experience and Dominick was very nice to us during the whole trip. We strongly recommend this activity!!

      An awesome experience whilst in Rovenimi, definitely jump on a snow mobile time if you can. Wild Nordic from start to finish were very easy to deal with, from resending the booking confirmation for me to the pick up, tour and drop off process. Everything was seamless and easy to follow. We had awesome guides (Bruno and Roy), who were great with both their interactions but also the knowledge they shared. We didn't see the lights, but that's okay as there was plenty more to experience. I would say, if you don't want to sit behind slower people pick the snowmobile behind the guides, we got stuck behind some slower drivers and it did make it slightly less enjoyable.

      Tourist trap excursion! 32 people and 16 snowmobiles. No charm, everyone in line at 30km/h. No sensation. It is nowhere indicated that there are so many people. 50 min motorbike ride. Sausage picnic for 5 euros. Being 32 in a cabin is not charming. No explanation about the Northern Lights. No breaks to take photos. Too expensive for the service.

      The company is not in control of the snow or the northern lights but the track was so rutted today that it was an extremely tedious journey out and back. I don’t have a problem with the speed like other reviewers - snowmobiles aren’t toys. But the interminable series of ruts and bumps made this a massive drag. My wife and I were excited about the trip but even with driving the snowmobile for the 1st time - no real fun to be had and certainly no adventure. My wife on the back was totally unimpressed. I want to be fair. The guides were nice and chatty and helpful and they built a good fire, and the equipment was excellent but hard to call this a safari. It’s a commercial trip along a track that hundreds of snowmobiles have been down before. The company don’t control the snow but they do use the tracks all day for their snowmobile tours, along with other tour companies too. So they are all responsible for it and the condition it’s in. I wouldn’t mention a picnic either - a sausage and a hot juice is not a picnic in my book, it’s a snack. All in all, if the track had been in better condition I would have said the trip was okay. With the track this bad though, I don’t think they should be running it. I’m not sure about the northern lights description too. With this phrase I’m the title, I would have expected some advice about how to take pictures and some tripods to borrow.

      Dear Richard, thank you for your feedback! Most of our activities, not only from Wild Nordic but also for other companies in Lapland are strongly interwoven with the weather conditions and natural phenomenon. Our guides and certainly our entire team would be extremely happy if the snowmobiling tracks would be groomed every evening and absolutely flat every morning. However, we have thousands of kilometers of snowmobiling tracks throughout Finland and the schedule to main those is closely connected to the weather forecast as well - too much ice, too little ice, too little snow, too much snow, too hot or not hot enough are all variables that affect the tracks, as well as usage and the type of drivers the snowmobiling safari clients are. We do also have a private groomer in Wild Nordic and we maintain the track vigorously in the night, but with the most popular tracks, there is traffic on them 24 hours and a well-groomed track can turn into valleys and bumps in a matter of hours. Hopefully, your feedback and our voice together with those from clients will hopefully prompt more grooming from the authorities. At this point, we are sorry that it has affected your safari and that something beyond our reach has resulted in a negative review for us (as it was a result of a warm winter night temperatures). Every winter is different and we hope that our amazing guides and team as well as our snowmobiling machines and Lappish views make up for some bumpy tracks once in a while. Wishing you a Happy New Year, With kindest regards, Ana, Wild Nordic Finland
