2.Northern Lights Hunt Snowmobile Safari

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 195 reviews · 5 hours · from $199

Drive a snowmobile through Inari’s silent forest at night, then stop at a tepee or hut for sausages, snacks, and hot drinks by the fire. Guides such as David, Sam, Marco, and Arvid are known for patient instruction and careful cold-weather checks. Aurora is possible but never guaranteed.

“I have no words! It was breathtaking. The guides were fantastic, so kind and attentive. We had sausages in an amazing place, but the most impressive was the magnificent red aurora we saw in the middle of the forest, thanks to them! I have no doubt I'll repeat the experience with them if I return to Saariselka!”

3.Snowmobile Safari on Tundra with BBQ

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 151 reviews · 3 hours · from $175

You’ll learn to handle a Lynx snowmobile on marked tracks before riding through Finnish Lapland’s forests and open fields. The three-hour trip includes winter clothing, boots, hotel pickup, an English-speaking guide, and a fire-hut stop with warm drinks and simple BBQ-style snacks. A valid driver’s license is required to drive.

“We had an amazing time! As the only two people on the tour, we enjoyed a private experience at a lower cost. We could really rev the engine and drive as fast as we pleased most of the time which made it even more enjoyable. Plus, the road was freshly flattened and we were the first to drive on it – a bonus! We had some extra time thanks to our speedy driving and we also managed to drive up the mountain. The sun was rising and the views were breathtaking. Overall, I highly recommend this tour!”
