The experience

The day starts with a private transfer in a luxury car from your accommodation or the airport, with your guide setting the pace. Once at the frozen lake, you'll change into high-quality Canada Goose winter gear in a heated dressing room, then step onto the ice to learn ice fishing under expert instruction: the meditative kind, where you wait and watch the hole, and the guide helps you land your first catch. It's silent out there, just the sound of the ice and the occasional crack beneath your boots.

After fishing, you move to the snowmobiles. Modern snow scooters are provided for both adults and kids, and you ride through snow-covered forest trails across the pristine Lappish wilderness. The route is safe and exhilarating at once. You're moving fast enough to feel the Arctic wind, but the guide controls the pace and the path. Booster seats and specialized infant seats are available if you're traveling with children.

The day ends in the glass igloo, where a three-course gourmet lunch waits, cooked over an open fire. You eat inside the igloo: protected from the elements but surrounded by them, with views of the landscape stretching out beyond the glass. The meal uses local delicacies and is prepared as you watch. Before the transfer back to Rovaniemi, you receive an originally designed, handmade Lapland souvenir to take home.
