Itinerary
Day 1
Private morning program: pickup in Rovaniemi, transfer to the reindeer farm area, reindeer farm visit, snowmobile safari, and three-course lunch in a glass igloo. Timings are indicative and fit within the advertised 3-hour duration.
Private pickup & transfer from Rovaniemi
Private pickup from your hotel or private address in the Rovaniemi area and short transfer to the farm start point. Driver/guide will confirm exact pickup point at booking.
Tips from local experts:
- Confirm the exact hotel name or street address in Rovaniemi with the operator the evening before to ensure a timely pickup.
- Have one compact daypack with camera/phone; leave large luggage in your accommodation as the vehicle carries only guest bags for the short transfer.
- Carry a charged phone and the local phone number you provided; driver may call if arrival location is ambiguous in winter conditions.
Reindeer farm visit – feeding & sleigh experience
Arrive at the reindeer farm. Feed the reindeer, hear short stories about farm life and reindeer, and enjoy an experiential reindeer sleigh ride; opportunity to photograph and try guiding the sleigh under guide supervision.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear the provided warm outer layers (Canada Goose/Fjällräven coat and SOREL shoes) over your base layers to stay dry and warm during outdoor interactions.
- Bring gloves you can remove briefly for photos; the guides will handle feeding and sleigh controls if requested for safety.
- If you require a vegan/vegetarian/kids menu, notify the operator before arrival so the kitchen can prepare the requested meal.
Snowmobile safari — into the winter forest to find wild reindeer
Guided snowmobile ride through scenic winter forest routes to locate wild reindeer in their natural habitat. Guides share insights on reindeer behaviour and local nature while leading safe, scenic routes.
Tips from local experts:
- Listen to the safety briefing carefully and follow guide instructions—helmets and any necessary protective gear will be provided.
- Keep camera settings ready (wide-angle recommended) and use wrist straps; hands must remain on controls unless stopped by the guide.
- If you're new to snowmobiling, request a tandem/single arrangement with the guide—operators provide basic instruction suitable for first-time riders.
Three-course Lapland lunch in a glass igloo
Return to the farm area and enjoy a refined three-course Lapland lunch served by an open fire inside a cozy glass igloo. Local, eco-friendly ingredients highlight traditional flavors. Quiet, intimate dining for two.
Tips from local experts:
- Inform staff of any dietary restrictions at least 24 hours in advance; vegan/vegetarian/kids menus are available on request.
- The glass igloo can get warm near the fire; bring a light insulated layer to remove indoors if needed for comfort during the meal.
- Keep conversation volume low to enjoy the quiet forest setting and the view—this is the recommended 'special moment' for couples.
