“Belle activité. Ciel magnifique. Guide génial. Bémol, l'activité raquette est un peu courte et assez simple : balade dans une forêt à peine 1h. Le temps de trajet vers le lieu d'activité est de 35'. Le temps de trajet est plus long que l'activité. Le réconfort près du feu est intéressant mais se fait à la fin dans un yourth sur le parking...”

“A különböző programok résztvevőit közös busszal vitték a belvárosi találkozóhelyről Apukkaba. A csoportokat utána itt osztották szét. Egy rövid útmutatás után indultunk a kb. 2,5 km-es sétára a fagyott távon és erdőben. A túravezetők nagyon tájékozottak és kedvesek voltak. Sokat magyaráztak a természetről, növényekről, állatokról és az ökoszisztémáról, amit nagyon hasznosnak találtunk. A túra számunkra egyáltalán nem volt megterhelő, én személy szerint inkább fáztam, mintsem kimelegedtem. Ízelítőnek azonban kiváló volt. Egyetlen negatívumként említhető, hogy először csak egy kis buszt küldtek, amire nem fért fel mindenki, így aki lemaradt még várnia kellett. Mi szerencsére felfértünk az első...”

“The meet-up was at the Wild about Lapland office. We were only 4 people including the guide, which was very nice. There, we were equipped with specific boots that fit the snowshoes and winter-proof overalls if needed. We drove for about 25min outside of Rovaniemi where we got an introduction to the snowshoes and then started walking. The walk took us up a little hill and then down to a teepee with an amazing view. There we made break to make an open fire and we had sausages, coffee and snacks. After the break it was a short walk back to the car. The activity took us about 3 hours…”

“We went on this adventure as a family of 4, with two boys aged 7 and 9. It was the highlight of our holiday. There was a total of 6 persons in our group plus the guide. Our guide Timo did a great job teaching us many things about survival and orientation. We all learnt how to start a fire with the tool, while the other couple also caught a fish. So many things are included in this adventure that you get a full taste of the arctic life. We recommend it.”
