    Loved meeting Santa and his elf. The sleigh ride was fun except it was -30F and very cold. Helsinki is beautiful with a rich history. I would like to explore that further. The outdoor markets were fun with so many handmade items! Then there was the trill of having crossed the arctic circle into Lapland and meeting the Sami people. Of course the icing on the cake was seeing the aurora borealis. Enjoyed Nordic food, customs and people. The Finnish language is very hard, but everyone we met spoke excellent English. They made us feel welcomed and wanted there. When I told the Elf, Sparkle, one reason I was there was that my father was Finnish so I wanted to see the homeland she hugged me and said "welcome home"

    This Collette exploration tour was more than expected. Accommodations were fabulous as were the tour inclusions. The dog sledding was a highlight, but the reindeer sleigh and Santa Claus visit were wonderful, as well. Our guide was wonderful and thoroughly knowledgeable about Finland. I traveled with my daughter and it was a trip of a lifetime. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for the unusual.

    Fantastic experience. Dog Sled ride was my favorite. The Northern Lights were spectacular on our last night in the Kakslauttanen Resort. Helsinki is a beautiful city with very friendly people. LOVED this trip!

    We went to see the Northern Lights and we saw them multiple nights. While on the reindeer sled ride there was a special time when we saw all the colors (green, pink, purple) and the lights really "danced" for about a minute and a half. It made the whole trip worthwhile.
