    Our tour guide Elo was fantastic. She was always nice and friendly, helped us and provided us with the right information. Group was very nice. Just be prepared for long bus drives if you start from Helsinki (there is an option to start from Rovaniemi to avoid this just check with the operator). Although we had people older than 45 with us, they did the activities just as enthusiastically as the younger people. It was an awesome trip and I will remember it.

    Absolutely loved this tour! Met so many incredible people and saw gorgeous sites. We were able to see the northern lights 3 nights in a row and our tour guide did a remarkable job making sure we knew what to look for and helped point out the lights when they were less visible. All the activities were so much fun with a lot of optional free time. Definitely recommend this to anyone who loves being on the go and active!

All questions
  • R

    Roger

    Asked on April 29th, 2025

    Can you let us know which hotels we are staying. Are you able to book one night before the travel starts and also one knight after the travel ends so we have enough time before and after the tour? How much would each night cost?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • TimetravelsOperatorWritten May 2025

      You will be staying in two different places: 3 nights in Kilpijärvi, Finnish Lapland and, 2 nights in Björkliden, Swedish Lapland. During your whole stay, the accommodation will be shared cottages. If you wish to enjoy one night more in Lapland before the trip starts, I recommend you to fly to Rovaniemi and the bus can pick you up on the way north. Sadly, as our trips are packages, we don't provide extra night services. However, if you wish to stay in Rovaniemi, there is a good amount of choices there.

  • L

    Luis

    Asked on April 27th, 2025

    Will accommodation be provided in Helsinki? If not, how much additional should I pay?

    Accommodation
    • TimetravelsOperatorWritten April 2025

      Unfortunately, we are not providing any accommodation in Helsinki before, nor after our trips. If you wish to book a night in Helsinki, please contact other providers. We will meet you on our trip, starting by a departure point (typically it is a railway station) on the first day of the tour.

    Wondering do you have dates available during January 2026?

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • TimetravelsOperatorWritten March 2025

      For the Grand Lapland 2026 offer, trips typically organised in March, we still need to finalise the approvals and bookings. Hence these trips will be published in late May-early June. In case you might be interested also in the tours at the end of 2025. We will organise two Grand Lapland tours. Both of these should be published during next week already, or later in April.

    What dates/months does this tour usually take place (I am interested in going around 2027)?

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • TimetravelsOperatorWritten February 2025

      Our Grand Lapland tours are typically organised in two different departures - during the month of December and March. However, the exact offer with dates and availability to book will be programmed only approximately half a year before the trip. For now, I can not provide more details about these tours. We always plan our tours one season ahead only, as we are mostly focusing on the current season. If you are interested in our tours in 2027, please come back to check the offer during 2026.

      From the airport, there is a train which is has as a final stop Helsinki Railway station, you cannot get lost, any of the train stopping at the airport goes to the same place! This journey takes around 40 minutes. Then, from the railway station, you walk less than 5 minutes and you are at the bus stop

    Rita

    Asked on January 15th, 2025

    I am doing research on tours for 2026/2027, as the only date here is March 2025, do more dates get released as it gets closer to the years I have mentioned. Also, it says the the price is a deal, so I was wondering what the usual price is for this tour.

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • TimetravelsOperatorWritten January 2025

      We have contacted the tour operator regarding the 2026 and 2027 dates, and those are not yet released. The exciting news is that these dates will be rolled out throughout the year and as we approach the requested departure date. This process ensures the most current and exciting adventures are available for you! The tour operator sets the prices directly, and sometimes, they offer incredible deals. For the specific adventure you're interested in, departing on March 9th, the starting price without any discounts is $1,366.
