Longer Trails (3h)
About
We start the program at the Arctic Lifestyle Safari House after which a bus takes us to our starting location. There you will be kitted with warm winter gear and we'll get a brief lesson in snowmobile driving and safety. Then it's time to go on an adventure into the pristine forests surrounding the area. In this program we aim at driving a bit faster and getting off-the beaten tracks for a while. However, safety and comfort of our guests always comes first and the guide will adapt the driving speed and mode to the participants’ abilities. After a long drive, we'll return to our starting area and take the bus back to the center of Rovaniemi.

From the safari-house we shuttle to our snowmobile site or depart for the excursion.
The mentioned duration of the safari is the actual time of the excursion. The total duration is app. 60-90 minutes longer than the mentioned duration, as we transfer and equip you.

Practical information:
All daily departures are available throughout the winter season, or due to prevailing weather and snow conditions. Daily Departures are operated for min 4 persons paying the adult fare (2 persons / snowmobile). Private excursions are available for min 8 persons (adult fare 2 persons / snowmobile). To book a private tour, please contact us at info@arcticlifestyle.fi.
Snowmobile safaris:
Our snowmobiles are locally produced, BRP Lynx Rave and Xtrim models. We have selected this model, as they are extremely comfortable to drive and as they are gentle to the environment, they are practically smoke and smell free.
Children travel in a sledge pulled by the guide’s snowmobile. In case a child prefers to travel as a passenger of a snowmobile, he / she must be tall enough to reach the handles and treads and strong enough to hold on tight. When a child travels on the snowmobile and not in a sledge pulled by a snowmobile, adult price (2 person / snowmobile) applies.
The snowmobiles and you as the snowmobile driver or passenger are covered by our insurance. The self-liability on damage of snowmobiles is max. 1 500 € / snowmobile. With a self-liability waiver (25 €) you reduce the self-liability to max 350 € / snowmobile. Every safari starts with instructions on driving and safety.
You will always be kitted with proper winter gear: thermal overall, boots, woollen socks, balaclavas and gloves or mittens for our safaris and excursions. Your own jacket and shoes remain at the safari house during the tour.
Arctic Lifestyle reserves the right to change the price, program, inclusions and duration of each excursion, due to weather conditions and unexpected occurrences.
