About Lapland Handbook

Guides to winter activities in Rovaniemi for people who are about to book one and want to know what they are actually buying.

What the site is

Lapland Handbook explains and compares the activities people come to Lapland for: husky and snowmobile safaris, northern lights tours, reindeer farms, Santa Claus visits and ice fishing. Most tours look alike online. The differences that decide whether one suits you, such as group size, age limits, who drives and what happens if you cancel, are often buried or missing, and the guides set them out.

Each guide says who should not book, and each comparison is built from the operators' own published details. How we research and rank tours explains the method in full.

Who it is for

Anyone planning a trip to Rovaniemi who has already decided roughly what they want to do and is choosing how, with whom and at what price: couples, families with children, groups of friends and people travelling alone.

Who is behind it

Lapland Handbook is written by its editorial staff in Rovaniemi. How we rank sets out how a comparison is put together and what decides the order operators appear in.
