    Reply from: Timetravels
    Dear Chris, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to read the trip did not match with your expectations. First of all, I’m glad to read that you were full satisfied with the guide performance. Despite your guide best effort, it’s a pity that the weather was not on your side and it prevented from some activities to be operated. In such a situation, it’s the guide decision if an activity should run or not according to his/her best judgement on the feasibility and safety to operate it. During your trip, the bus could not even drive via the usual road from Finland to Sweden but was forced to detour via Kiruna lower land road for safety reasons. Regarding the trip page. Indeed, when joining a new trip that you have never experienced before, the information on its page is essential to prepare properly. Even though on your trip page the information was accurate, we wish to improve it. I’ve shared your feedback with my colleagues in charge of the Grand Lapland trip organisation to review how the information about your trip journey and accommodation can be improved. Please, let me add that I understand your consideration about the bus journey part, I joined a few of our trips and I agree with you that the departure place is a key factor. I’m sorry you could not select the departure from Rovaniemi / arrival to Rovaniemi. This is a standard features for our Grand Lapland trip and it reduce the bus journey considerably.
 Once again, we are sorry that the trip did not match your expectations.
 With best regards, The whole Team Timetravels

    Jane

    Asked on September 11th, 2026

    I would like to know how much is a two person bedroom?

    Accommodation
    Price / Availability
    • TimetravelsOperator•Written September 2026

      Most of our accommodation options have private bedrooms for two people, while the bathroom, kitchen and living room are shared with the other guests staying in the cottage. If you would prefer to have the entire accommodation privately for just the two of you, we can also arrange private accommodation. The price would be €600 for the accommodation for the whole stay.

  • M

    Mark

    Asked on September 5th, 2026

    I am able to book a child (my daughter is a mature 14 year old!) however I noticed the age range is stayed as 18-50 - why is this? Please let me know if this is strict.

    Age Range
    • TimetravelsOperator•Written September 2026

      No worries at all, if you and your daughter are very welcome to join the trip and her age is not a problem. The age range of 18–50 is mainly indicated because of the nature of our trips. Most of the trips include shared accommodation and a long bus journey, so we want to make sure that all travellers are comfortable with these arrangements and able to travel comfortably as part of the group. Your daughter's price would be the same as the student price. So you are very welcome to travel together, and there is no issue with her being 14 as long as she is accompanied by you.

      Traveler•Written July 2026

      what the guided tours available and what's no guided?

    • TimetravelsOperator•Written July 2026

      Regarding the accommodation, we completely understand that you would like to stay together as a family. We will do our very best to accommodate your request. Around 10–14 days before departure, you will receive an accommodation sign-up email. The first member of your family to open the link will be able to assign all five of you to the same accommodation (subject to availability). The accommodation for this trip is shared between 4 and 8 people.

    • TimetravelsOperator•Written July 2026

      Regarding your arrival on the first day, according to the preliminary itinerary, the bus departs from Helsinki Railway Station (Mikonkatu, in front of the Casino) at 19:30. We kindly recommend arriving at least 30 minutes before departure. The final itinerary, including all meeting times and practical information, will be sent approximately 5–7 days before the trip. Normally, there are no major changes to the departure time.

    • TimetravelsOperator•Written July 2026

      Regarding your question about the guided tours, most of the activities included in the itinerary are accompanied by your guide. Your guide will introduce each destination, share interesting facts about the local culture and nature, coordinate the daily schedule, and be available throughout the trip if you need any assistance. All the activities, such as the hike in Abisko National Park, the night snowshoe hike, the Arctic skills workshop, Husky safari, Snowmobile safari, Cross Country skiing and the visit to the Sami and their reindeer, are guided experiences. Other visits, such as Santa Claus Village, Tromsø, or Kiruna, include free time for you to explore at your own pace after your guide has provided all the necessary information and recommendations.

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details

      You can see all the included items on a tour booking page; Meet the Sámi and their reindeer activity is included in the price. Unfortunately, the Aurora hunt is not included.

  • K

    Katie

    Asked on March 6th, 2026

    Can we get 1 private room for just our family? The info says shared room for 4-8 people and we want to make sure we get our own room for just our family.

    Accommodation
    • TimetravelsOperator•Written March 2026

      Unfortunately, we are not able to pre-book the rooms, just the whole cabin. As in the tour base price only shared accommodation is included, the private accommodation can only be booked for an extra fee, and per individual requests.

      The fee may vary, depending on a tour, date, and availability - usually it is between 300-600 Eur.
