There are a few different ways you can book our trips. First of all, you can book almost all our trips right here on our website. There is a booking window on each tour page and we do recommend that you book and pay for your trip there, preferably in good time as we keep our groups small and some tours tend to sell out.

Another way is to send us an e-mail with an inquiry through our contact form.

Q:

- How to dress right and feel comfortable in Winter?

A:

1. Start with thermal underwear and warm socks.

2. If it’s really cold, –20 or below, wear an additional fleece layer on top of your thermals. Another pair of socks, preferably woolly or thermal, will keep your feet warm.

3. Wear pants with thermal lining. Don’t underestimate the importance of a neck warmer or a scarf. Slip into your winter boots and do them up well.

4. Almost done! Throw on your winter jacket, put on a warm hat and thermal gloves. Don’t forget to tuck your gloves into your sleeves and zip your jacket ALL the way up

The most fun and memorable experience of our Finland trip

March 12, 2023



This turned out to be the most fun and memorable experience of our Finland trip. This “floating in the ice water” was my wife’s idea, I rolled my eyes and said yes thinking it might be pretty boring. We opted for the day-time trip in January, there were 3 of us and we had the whole experience to ourselves. We were collected from our resort then driven to a private site and a little frozen over lake. In the cottage we were zipped into our arctic survival suits (big baggy onesies that made us look like “My Blobbie” or Michelin-man, whichever reference you might get). We were then taken to a big hole in the ice by a little jetty and could climb in the water. What you do then is entirely up to you. you can float on your back and calmly enjoy the surroundings.. or you can also hoist yourself vertical, paddle about, break off surrounding ice and even climb up on the frozen lake ice and muck about, climbing in and out of the water as you choose. We broke off a load of ice and hauled the pieces on to the lake to make ice-art. We were extremely lucky to have bright blue skies and this made everything look amazingly beautiful. I think it was about -15c at the time, but you stay warm enough. I read some reviews about people on ice float trips getting a little water inside their suit. I think it’s entirely a factor of how careful you are and what you do. Two of us did not get wet at all. I got absolutely soaked.. I was moving about getting up and back from the ice, front crawl plus floating.. I regularly felt water trickle in my neck area. I was having so much fun I didn’t care at all. If you are prone to being a bit splashy and adventurous then bring a change of clothes and wrap your phone in a zip lock bag. Our guide/host/driver was very friendly and we had a good chat in the car and he kindly took some great phone video footage of us. We had a GREAT time.

Awesome!!

Nous avons passé une excellente après-midi en petit comité grâce à Alex et Tanja ! Nous parlons et rigolons encore de cette activité ice-floating et du petit goûter avec boisson chaude qui a suivi. Nous recommandons Nordic Adventures à tous ceux qui souhaitent soutenir les petites compagnies et fuir les gros groupes. Alex et Tanja étaient attentionnés et chaleureux, on voit qu'ils aiment ce qu'ils font ! ❤

Unique Ice floating experience

We did Ice floating with Nordic Adventures. Alex and his team are very honest and passionate people living their dream and making our time as pleasant as possible. Will definitely get back to them when we are in Rovaniemi and truly recommend them.
