Evening snowmobile safari is a special experience with the chance to see Northern lights or starry sky.
This evening departure on a snowmobile safari will be a special experience to discover the magic of snowy forests at night. Given extra light by the white snow reflection or the stars and the moon, we follow the snowmobile trails away from city lights and look for a spot to admire the sky. The guide will light up a bonfire in a traditional Lappish teepee (kota) where you'll enjoy an arctic picnic while waiting for the northern lights to appear.
Everyone can grill traditional Finnish "makkara" sausages on the fire and enjoy hot berry juice to keep you warm. For taking proper photos in darkness, you can bring along a tripod for your camera. The riding time on snowmobiles is approximately 2 hours.
The average speed during our tours is limited due to safety and traffic regulations. Two adults ride on one snowmobile, single riding supplement for an extra charge. The tour is suitable for families with children; children are traveling in the sleigh pulled by the guide's snowmobile. We recommend having an early dinner in the hotel before the departure.

RECOMMENDATION
Please take your driving license with you on the snowmobile safari as the police may check the validity of the license during the safari.
We recommend wearing thermo body-wear & multilayer clothing and woolen socks.
You will get warm outer clothing and boots before the safari.
For those people who consider self-rental: out there you'll be surrounded by almost total whiteness, so it's quite easy to lose one's way for the first time, that's why to guarantee quality time, we highly recommend for the first time go on an organized safari with an experienced local guide.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
As the sun sets and the night takes hold...
As the sun sets and the night takes hold, our Night Snowmobile Safari in Levi offers a unique and magical way to explore the snowy wonders of Lapland. The white snow reflects the extra light, creating an ethereal ambiance complemented by the stars and moon.
Venturing away from city lights, we navigate the snowmobile trails, searching for the perfect spot to witness the celestial dance of the Northern Lights. The guide enhances the experience by lighting up a bonfire inside a traditional Lappish teepee (kota). Here, amid the warmth, you'll indulge in an arctic picnic, grilling traditional Finnish "makkara" sausages over the fire and sipping hot berry juice to stay warm.
For those aspiring to capture the beauty of the night, bringing along a tripod for your camera is recommended. The riding time on snowmobiles is approximately 2 hours, ensuring you have ample time to soak in the snowy forest's enchantment.
