Aurora And Snowcastle Tour

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*. Two people share one snowmobile and takes turns in driving. 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.

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. Two people share one sled and takes turns in driving. 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 Snow Castle. The Snow Castle of Kemi is the source of great pride as well as a true showcase of architectonic snow-work of the local constructors. The whole Snow Hotel and the rooms inside are made of snow. Every winter the Snow Castle 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 Snow Castle. 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 Snow Castle!
* Please note that the Husky Tour is not operating on Tuesdays and Thursdays
