The highlight was everything! from start to finish. (more)Sian Minns

Obviously seeing the Aurora was the best part of the holiday however the Husky safari was a big tick off the bucket list. This was indeed a once in a lifetime experience! Our holiday was the best and something we will never forget. (more)Andrew Allen

The highlight was the Northern lights - though husky sledging pretty good and reindeer herding exceeded expectations. (more)Steve Killick

The highlight were the huskies. Amazing, would do it again. (more)Ken Liew

The stunning views whilst sledding in such silence. The dogs get so excited before you set off and its incredibly noisy but as soon as they go it's silence. (more)Jennifer Atkinson

The most memorable was working with my dog team on a daily basis and sitting around the dinner table with everyone in the evening. (more)John Maurice Bell

It was a dream come true. The 2 days Husky Safary and Snowmobiling were my favorite but probably only because the Reindeer trip was too short and did not have time to really appreciate it. (more)Silvia Moschetti

It was all so wonderful but I think the peace and quiet of Pine Lodge was the most memorable. (more)Gillian Tyropois

The 2 day husky safari and seeing the northern lights more than once! Excellent. (more)Ann Nelson

We loved the location and scenery. Fantastic and looking to go again next year. (more)Lorraine Aspell

The weather and beautiful scenery. Very helpful and friendly local people. A great place for a short stay. A little more choice of food would be good in the hotel but generally all round very good. Excellent staff! (more)Simon Gooding

Staying in a beautiful and peaceful location and definitely the husky sled ride was such a fantastic experience. Superb, best experience ever! Excellent food, warm and comfortable accommodation and plenty to do. Beautiful area and will be going again. (more)Denise Ghalebi

Seeing our boys faces when we woke them at 1am to go to the airport after having over 11 months of build up and anticipation!! (more)Miriam Ross

Its the best!!!! I can't imagine anything better than this. (more)Chenlan Wang

The highlight was spending a wonderful afternoon and evening at the country home of our Finnish guide, meeting her delightful family and enjoying a superb dinner while listening to her son's girlfriend singing Finnish songs. (more)Nomi Paynton

We really enjoyed the bicycle tour through green spaces around the edges of Helsinki. It was definitely off the beaten tourist track. Our guide was informative and delightful. We loved the evening boat trip to a tiny island west of Turku. (more)Diane Banner

Really enjoy(ed) searching for the northern lights, enjoyed the time on the Fells, dog sledding was a fun experience. (more)Wendy Goodman

The husky sledding was amazing. Amazing - we all loved it. Great accommodation, activities and restaurant. (more)Clare Adcock

We loved all the activities. I think the huskies would be voted top by most of the party. But just the experience of being surrounded by a beautiful snowy trees and scenery and for small (and larger) children, the constant availability of sledges and slopes and lovely deep snow is magical. Just being able to go in to the zoo every day we were there and see those animals and birds once more was also special. (more)Liz Garrett

The husky safari was amazing. Truly memorable with a lifetime full of memories. (more)Srikanth Murthi

The most memorable was all the snow and ice activities - husky sledding, ice fishing, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobile driving - were great. So different from what you can do in London! Would have been even better if the Northern lights had appeared while we were there but that's not under anyone's control. (more)Mark Harris

The husky tour, the tipi warm up snack times & quite simply, the amount of snow everywhere! (more)Michelle Adonis

The most memorable was snowshoeing on the fell above Luosto in a winter wonderland, leading a team of Huskies and snowmobiling in the dark. An excellent holiday, good accommodation, great activities, wonderful food. (more)Paul Moran

Of course we loved, loved, loved seeing the aurora and the dog sledding was incredible. (more)Adele Weiss

Absolutely wonderful. All the people on site were magnificent - we can't speak more highly enough. We have never been looked after any better on any holiday we have taken. (more)Ray Wiley

Peace and tranquility. Beautiful forests and still lakes. Wonderful, well cared for and friendly huskies. Superb sauna down by the lake. Just say the overall experience- a great de-stressing holiday. (more)Gerard Newman

This was one of the best breaks I have ever had. I felt completely relaxed and at peace immediately. Wonderful hosts, wonderful setting and an amazing experience. (more)Amanda Fiske

Everything was perfect! The dogs, the way they were cared for, Aki and Suvi who looked after us, the location. The whole holiday was brilliant. And of course the countryside - endless lakes and pine forests. The cabin we stayed in was right on a lake and the views and peace & quiet were breath-taking. (more)Willemina Hagenauw

The trip to the wilderness cabin was great fun. Really enjoyable to be able to spend the night out there. Chopping wood, fetching water from the well and a traditional wood-fired sauna were all part of the fun. It was a fantastic week. Our guide, Janne, was great. He went the extra mile to adjust things to suit the mix of people on the tour and local conditions. (more)Christopher Lynch

It's hard to choose one memorable moment - I had a lovely time with the small team of ladies and the hospitality from our guide Mika, and our chef Harri was phenomenal! All the activities were great, and the food was delicious. (more)Nita Losoponkul

The husky safari and the general scenery were the most memorable parts of this trip. (more)John Vango

The most memorable moment was the warmth and hospitality of our hosts (and their great home cooked Finnish cuisine), to interacting with the dogs and harnessing them, to the experience of a wood fired sauna beside a frozen lake each evening, this short holiday could not have been better. (more)Matthew Peek

Excellent experience - would have liked to have stayed longer and would go again! (more)Philippa Cawthorne

It was quite magical. Both aurora, pale green and pinkish, and the millions of stars were reflected in the dark river below. (more)Katrina Miller

Excellent. I'd be happy to go back to Nellim again. (more)Malcolm Raggett

Memorable parts? Seeing the most awesome display of the Aurora Borealis on New Year's Eve! How lucky were we? This was the icing on the cake, following four days of exhilarating activities. Tips? It's a fair walk from the lake and hotel to the larger cabins and some activities can be slightly tiring, so make sure you are comfortable in what you are wearing and have some energy! If you wear glasses, take contact lenses. Local benefits? Yes, apart from the snowmobile engines Overall... (more)Jeannette Middleton

Memorable parts? I loved the Autumn colours; walking with the reindeer and learning about and experiencing the local culture and food. The aurora dome was very special ... a must do on the tour!! I just loved everything to be honest. The staff and guides are fantastic. Nothing is too much for them. Tips? Don't go just to see the northern lights because you may not be lucky enough to see them - but there is so much more to this tour/destination that makes it an amazing experience.... (more)Jeanette O

The whole trip was memorable. A great place with great people and just the right amount of activities. Husky sledding, snow mobiles and snow shoeing amongst others, and a very special New Years Eve. (more)Frank Wells

The whole day and evening of New Year's Eve: Reindeer farm and sled ride, lunch in the ice restaurant and the evening's entertainment and fireworks. All of this and the Northern Lights!!! Best New Year's Eve ever!!! Throughout the week our guide, Alan, was professional, efficient attentive, creative and still managed to be good humoured and patient. (more)Caroline Nixon

The husky ride was the most memorable. (more)John Willcox

The husky dog sleigh day at Guesthouse Husky was the most memorable. (more)Josephine Wade

Memorable parts? Aurora and husky safari Tips? Take plenty of thermals. Local benefits? Not sure. The guides certainly had knowledge about the local environment. Overall rating? Very enjoyable. Would perhaps have been nice to have had an extra day to explore or even rest as it felt very “full on” and was tiring, and although I would not have wanted to miss any of the evening activities, an evening just relaxing would have been nice. The staff were helpful, Nina was... (more)Daryl Halsey

Memorable parts? There were many memorable parts to this holiday, from catching a glimpse of the lights, to riding snow mobiles through the forest at night, to breathing such beautiful clean air. The holiday was magical. Tips? There is no need to buy lots of specialist clothing, just some thermals and a couple of base layers. No need to dress up. Also don't stress about seeing the lights, the holiday is fabulous and if you get to see them its "the icing on the cake", enjoy all the... (more)Gillian McDonnell

Memorable parts? So many memorable times, but probably snow mobiling to see Father Christmas. Tips? Bring lots of thermals and a head torch. Local benefits? We visited a reindeer farm run by the local community. Overall rating? Absolutely wonderful (more)Nicola Goddard

Memorable parts? The dog sledding was the best! Very exciting, amazing experience! Tips? To fly to Ivalo and stay at Nangu Wilderness hotel. The hotel is beautiful and very new, the staff is amazing and they go above and beyond to make tou feel like home. Next time I would probably hire a car to explore the surrounding. Local benefits? Yes it was a low print holiday, immerse in nature and benefiting locals. Overall rating? Excellent! Everything was well organised... (more)Giulia Azzara

Memorable parts? Seeing the kids sledging on proper snow! Tips? Take single use hand warmers with you and use them in your shoes too!! Local benefits?

The most memorable part was definitely the husky Safari on Christmas Day - this was truly magical. I was quite nervous about driving the sleigh at the start but once I relaxed it was breath taking and something special (more)Gemma O’Sullivan

The whole holiday was simply magical from the husky and reindeer rides to meeting Santa Claus in Lapland. Staying a night in the Snow hotel was also an experience of a lifetime! (more)Christina Chan

Trekking in the forest with the husky dogs. Enjoying nature. I was lucky enough to see an elk, a wolverine and a brown bear, in a elk safari and night at the bear hide. (more)Sandra Jesus

One of the best experiences ever, could not recommend this holiday enough. (more)Paul Ashby
