Get ready for an experience of a lifetime and a "must do" when in Lapland: A husky safari! Husky safaris are a unique way of traveling through Finland's wintry landscapes as your loyal sled runners slice through crisp plains of snow. Connect with the tranquility of Mother Nature as you take in the wild beauty of the great outdoors.

On the safari, you'll learn how to work with your own furry brigade of huskies and also ride in a sled pulled by a happy herd of pups.

Lunch will be together at the hotel before enjoying some much-earned R&R. You can warm up in your sauna, but if you're looking for more adventure, the hotel also rents snowshoes great for a hike on the soft, pillowy snow.

After sunset, travel by sleigh to a campsite under the stars with your guide leading the way. At the camp, get warm and toasty around a fire in a cozy little hut and sip on a warm drink while waiting for the Northern Lights to show themselves.
