About the trip

This six-night escorted tour by G Adventures starts in Helsinki, where the city's mix of historical buildings and contemporary design provides a quiet backdrop for an orientation walk and a visit to the Helsinki Library. From there, travellers take a scenic overnight train north to Rovaniemi, known as the gateway to Lapland.

The itinerary includes a visit to Kuoska Reindeer Farm, blending a chance to meet Indigenous herders with the thrill of a husky-pulled sleigh ride through snowy trails. Evening northern lights hunts are led by the Chief Experience Officer, where guests gather by campfires inside traditional tents to watch the sky, though sightings remain a seasonal possibility.

Other included activities range from ice fishing or snowshoeing, to a visit to Santa Claus Village and crossing the Arctic Circle line. Accommodation varies but focuses on clean, locally-run hotels without elevators in some cases. Meals mainly cover breakfasts and two lunches, with flexibility for dining choices alongside the group.
