    Excellent tour of a beautiful country. Tour was well planned and the stops were just amazing! The guide, Chris Webb, was knowledgeable and had plenty of stories to share to keep us entertained during the tour.

    Well organized and efficient. Adapted to changing circumstances that were out of their control. Had to manage a wide variety of customers and did a good job of it.

    The tour was very well organised and the guide Charlie and driver Stewart were amazing. The accommodation was good. I wish we had spent more time in the smaller towns like Galway and Killarney, rather than Dublin and Belfast.

      What is the additional fee for intra flight and on which day from which location to which destination?

    • GlobusOperatorWritten August 2024

      We do not allow single guests to share accommodations. On Day 4 of the itinerary will have you visiting Santa Claus Village. The Intra-Vacation flight will be from Helsinki Vantaa Airport to Oulu Airport.

      Jess

      TravelerWritten August 2024

      What is the difference between Confirm and Guaranteed? If it is not departing then it is no point I make the booking now. Approximately when can we know the group is departing? Will the atmosphere in Santa Clause Village be same as any other month in May/June?

    • GlobusOperatorWritten August 2024

      A confirmed tour is a tour that has been made available to book. A guaranteed tour means that this departure will likely not be cancelled. We usually guarantee the departures once guests start booking that departure date. Every season is different in Rovaniemi. In this Arctic nature wonderland, you can experience the magic of the midnight sun in summer.

    Brett

    Asked on February 21st, 2024

    On the days when there is heavier traveling, how long are the bus rides during the day. Are there four hour bus rides...or closer to 10 hours? I would appreciate a full and honest response so that I can assess the suitability for myself.

    Tour Details

    • GlobusOperatorWritten February 2024

      The timeframe on the motor coach is hard to determine. I am unable to give you specifics on the number of hours on the motor coach. There are locations you will be stopping to along the way. A detail itinerary will not be provided until you arrive on the tour due to last minute changes.
