Beat activity of our holiday
This activity was fantastic for young kids and adults. There were a selection of activities to choose from for the first half of the morning - snow showing, cross country skiing, snowmobile riding for kids and sledging. When you got too cold there was a hut with a fireplace to go for hot drinks and snacks. After this, there was a short husky ride which we all thought was the highlight of the day, as well as getting to spend time with the huskies afterwards as well. We finished off the day with a visit to feed the reindeer and a buffet lunch. Of the various activities we did during our stay at Apukka, which were all great, this was the best of the trip and I'd highly recommend it.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We’re delighted to hear that Apukka Snow & Fun was the highlight of your holiday. It’s wonderful that both the kids and adults enjoyed the variety of activities — from skiing and sledging to the husky ride and meeting the reindeer. Spending time with the huskies and warming up by the fire with hot drinks are some of our favorite moments too, so it’s lovely to know they stood out for you. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back for more Arctic adventures in the future! Kind regards, Johanna / Apukka Resort team

Excellent
I just want to say my family thoroughly enjoyed the snow fun day at Apukka resort. The activities were so enjoyable and the resort itself is beautiful. I cannot speak more highly about the staff at Apukka resort, they couldn't have been anymore helpful. Our activity took a little longer so we didn't make the bus but the staff dropped my family back to our accomodation in the city centre. 3 course buffet lunch included and was really welcomed after our day in the snow. I'm already planning our stay next winter at Apukka resort. It is the most beautiful scenic place. Thank you to all staff at Apukka
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that your family enjoyed the Snow & Fun day and that our team could make your experience even more comfortable. It’s great to know the lunch and the scenic surroundings added to your day. We look forward to welcoming you back next winter for more snowy adventures!

Good tours
We booked 2 tours with Apukka and included pick up from the city centre. We did the snowmobile safari into the wilderness and Snow Train Northern Lights tours. The snowmobile tour was a good length, it gave you both adequate time to take turns in driving. It was quite bumpy sitting as a passenger for those that have any motion sickness issues. We were unlucky during our week stay in Rovaniemi that the northern lights did not appear once all week. The tour still takes place, be aware that the train moves slower than you can walk, it seemed to take forever. The team did a good job of keeping people entertained even though there was nothing to look at.
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the snowmobile safari and appreciate your kind words about our team. Sorry to hear the Northern Lights didn’t show up during your stay — nature can be unpredictable! Hopefully you'll have better luck next time!

Snow fun, reindeer feeding, husky ride
We had a fantastic time with lunch. The kid's enjoyed most of the activities. Staff was friendly and easy communicate. Husky ride was amazing even a little bit short but great experience for us. I would recommend this company 👍
Response from the operator: Thank you for the great review! We are happy to hear you and your kids enjoyed the experience. We hope to see you again soon!

Not for the dare-devils, but nice with children
We stayed at the Apukka resort itself, and for us this was a nice way to quickly get introduces to a variety of snow-fun. Yes, it is expensive, and I would not travel all the way to the resort just for this. It mainly caters to children, for adults this is only interesting if you have never been to the snow before. In our group there were children aged 4-8 who enjoyed it very much, and as parents you could also try out stuff without having to worry about the kids. Trying cross country skiing and snowshoeing without having to do a full two hour tour is nice enough with smaller children. The interaction with the huskies and reindeer was more than on our dedicated 'reindeer farm visit', so that was a good bonus. Emilia was our primary guide, and she was very very nice. However, all the other ones were also quick to help out and seemed to enjoy giving out information on Lappish life. The lunch was the lunch buffet in the restaurant, which is not super special, but absolutely a solid meal. My only negative was the fact that we spend quite a lot of money on this activity 'with lunch' and then got charged almost 5 euro for a single glass of apple juice. That was a bit of a let down.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed the snow & fun activities and the interactions with the huskies and reindeer. It’s great to hear that Emilia and the team made your experience enjoyable. We appreciate your feedback on the lunch and pricing, and we’ll take it into consideration. Hope to see you again for more winter fun!

Why this scores 49
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Apukka Snow and Fun, Rovaniemi: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rovaniemi.
How much does Apukka Snow and Fun, Rovaniemi cost?
+
Prices start at $145 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rovaniemi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Apukka Snow and Fun, Rovaniemi take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rovaniemi is not rushed.
Is Apukka Snow and Fun, Rovaniemi worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.4/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rovaniemi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Apukka Snow and Fun, Rovaniemi?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Apukka Snow and Fun, Rovaniemi suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Apukka Snow and Fun, Rovaniemi?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rovaniemi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rovaniemi and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Apukka Snow and Fun, Rovaniemi start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rovaniemi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rovaniemi?
+
On Outty we rank every Rovaniemi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Northern Lights Rovaniemi: Guaranteed Viewing & Unlimited Mileage, Rovaniemi: Korouoma Canyon & Frozen Waterfalls Tour with BBQ, Rovaniemi:%100 Guaranteed Northern Lights Hunt&Free Photos. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rovaniemi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rovaniemi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
