The reaseon we use North Lapland as the location of our main destinations is that it experiences snowfalls since October. However, we cannot control the weather. So, int he unlikely event that the snow is not deep enough for snow-requiring activities, we will offer an alternative or pay full refund for the cancelled activites. Activities not snow-dependent are usually always possible.
The spring semester is, of course, more enjoyable because there is more snow and more sunlight. Due to its popularity, the spring semester can be slightly more expensive. If you can choose, we recommend traveling to Lapland in February, March.
During the autumn semester, there is a small risk of having less snow. Besides, the short period of daylight brings some restrictions to the schedule, for instance, the need to wake up early in the morning. Although, later the Northern Light experience is unique.
Wi-fi is available only in the lobby area during the lobby area opening times.
