Day 1 (Thursday): Welcome to Kemi

Begin your winter adventure at Kemi Airport where our local staff awaits to greet you and transfer you from the airport to your hotel in Kemi. As dusk settles, the guide prepares you for an exciting guided snowmobile trip into the wild to explore the extraordinary beauty of Lapland’s Northern Lights*. Later, after enjoying a delicious hot beverage and light snack around a campfire, you are returned to the hotel. 

*Please note that the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon and sightings cannot be guaranteed.

Day 2 (Friday): Sampo Icebreaker, Snowmobiles and Reindeers

Start the day with a traditional Finnish buffet breakfast before heading out for today’s experiences. Three unique winter adventures are on the schedule: A snowmobile safari, a sea voyage through the ice and the opportunity to earn your very own reindeer drivers license. The guide prepares you for an exciting guided snowmobile trip to the Icebreaker Sampo. On board the ship a busy program is on the agenda: an interesting presentation of icebreaking technique and ship history, a visit to the intriguing control room and the massive engine room as well as the bridge to see how the Captain commands the vessel. After a nice lunch in the ship’s cosy restaurant it is time for the highlight of the cruise: you will be equipped with a survival suit which keeps you warm and afloat before you throw yourself in the water for an arctic swim in the 0-degree water! Before leaving the ship you receive an icebreaking diploma from the crew. The tour continues by snowmobile to a Lapp Camp where you are served a cup of coffee or hot lingonberry juice in a wooden hut around a cosy open fire. Then it’s time to learn to drive yet another vehicle: a reindeer-pulled sledge. If you manage to pass the short driving test you will be the proud owner of a reindeer driver license. Eventually you will go back to Kemi by snowmobiles after an adventurous day.

Day 3 (Saturday): Husky Tour and the SnowCastle

After enjoying a nice breakfast at the hotel, you will be picked up by car and transferred to a husky farm for a thrilling dog sled ride through the frosty forest and over snowy meadows. The dogs howl and pull at their harnesses to get moving, and as soon as the anchor is lifted, the dogs fall silent and eagerly start pulling the sled through the woods and over the plains. Back at the farm, you will enjoy a hot beverage together with the musher before you will be transferred back to the hotel. 

Later in the afternoon you will check in to the SnowCastle. The SnowCastle of Kemi is the source of great pride as well as a true showcase of architectonic snow-work of the local constructors. The whole SnowHotel and the rooms inside are made of snow. Every winter the SnowCastle offers wonderful experiences for both children and adults alike. Great light-effects will add to the charm of the snow- and ice-sculpting as well as to the structures about the SnowCastle. The fresh, about -5 degrees Celsius breathing-air, will guarantee you sweet dreams inside a well-equipped sleeping bag on a good bed. You will have a memorable sleeping-experience in the SnowCastle!
