Festive Family Fun in a Winter Cottage
A review of Jeris - Festive Family Fun in a Winter Cottage by The Stone FamilyThank you for a brilliant holiday. It was by far our favourite part of our visit to Europe. We loved all the activities and the people were so friendly and accommodating. Greta and Jenny were fantastic - they couldn't do enough to ensure that we had the best time. It was such a different experience to any other travel we have undertaken - it honestly felt like we were in a magical fairytale or…
Read more movie set. It was so beautiful. I'm not sure that we could pick the most enjoyable because we loved everything. Highlights - For me - Northern Lights (bucket list item), snow mobiles, dog sled, reindeer sled and meeting Santa. We also loved the ice restaurant.

Truly amazing experience and surpassed our expectations
by The Hyatt FamilyAnyone thinking about going to Lapland just go. The whole experience was truly magical from the very beginning and the Finnish people are so lovely. The Gulo Gulo Holiday village was amazing

Please pass on my thanks to everyone I spoke with throughout the process – we felt we received excellent recommendations and advice and we had a perfect holiday. Customer service in the UK has slipped recently but you are a company who ‘bucked the trend’ and excelled. My only complaint is that this was meant to me a once in a lifetime holiday and now my wife is looking to book again…!

Anyone even contemplating whether or not to go... just do it. An experience you will never forget
A review of Ranua - Festive Family Adventure by The Hyatt FamilyWow! What can I say. A truly amazing experience that I will never forget. We booked for 3 nights and tried to do as much as possible. The accommodation was fantastic and to use the saunas is a must. There was lots of snow and my daughter insisted on being pulled everywhere on a sledge even round the Wildlife park. We went in search of the Northern lights being pulled on a sleigh by a Finn horse…

A review of Muotka - Activity Pick and Mix by The Rayner-Giannone FamilyThis is our second time of visiting Wilderness Hotel in Muotka, and it didn’t disappoint this time.

Read more trip to the Reindeer Farm. The Husky dog trip was epic too. We enjoyed the Finn horse safari across a frozen lake in the dark very atmospheric. We also had a wild night safari into the Zoo which was great we had a guide take us around for two hours looking for nighttime activity. In terms of the overall experience, we had a brilliant time. Brilliant would not hesitate to recommend.

A review of Ranua - Pick and Mix by The O'Hara-Smith FamilyThe activities were just perfect. Our kids loved them. Staff at a Holiday Village Gulo Gulo were fab. So friendly especially the French guy who’s name I can’t remember, went over and above to help me find the phone I'd lost in the snow!

Very hard to pick just one activity..all enjoyable for different reasons and so very enjoyable for all our family.
