    Hi Christopher, Thank you for your review. We are really glad that you have had such a wonderful experience in Rovaniemi. About the clothing, we always spoke about jacket and pants, insulated boots, mittens, and a tube scarf could be provided. We never said that underwear or hats were included. At the same time, we suggested from the beginning that you should bring thermal clothes on your own as a reinforcement. We apologize if there was some misunderstanding. Kind regards, VOS

      What is the net group rate per adult? What is the child rate for the 2-year-old? What is the infant rate for the 10-month-old? Is there a single supplement? What group discount is available for 13 passengers? What is the agent commission percentage or net rate available to travel advisors? What deposit is required to confirm the booking? What is the payment schedule? What are the cancellation and amendment conditions? What is the deadline for confirming the group?

    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten August 2026

      Unfortunately, there is currently no availability in Rovaniemi for either of the requested periods. Would it be possible for the guests to consider moving their trip to February or March instead? This period generally offers longer daylight hours, more sunlight, fewer crowds, and often better rates. Snow conditions for winter activities are also typically excellent, providing a better overall experience and value for the guests.

    Asked on August 5th, 2026

    Could you confirm if a family of 2 adults and 3 children (ages 6, 8, and 9) can share the same room? Additionally, they would like to request a Spanish guide for the tour.

    Accommodation
    Age Range
    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten August 2026

      The biggest room we can provide can fit 4 people comfortably. If you are interested in the date I can check availability for 5 guests in the same room.

      The rate for a child under 11 years old will be -30 % from the adult price.

      The tour includes a tour leader who can speak Spanish, Italian ,French and English.

    • L

      Lucy

      TravelerWritten August 2026

      by any chance do you still have availability for Dec 9th tour? also my client wants to add 2 more adults so it would be okay if we can accomodate a room for 3 and a room for 4.

    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten August 2026

      We are are sold out of the December 9th tour too. Currently we also have very limited rooms for the December 30 tour.

      I would suggest either our dates in January or the 25th of November.

      We also have availability for every date in December on our similar tour ROVANIEMI WINTER EXPERIENCE. The only difference is that there is no igloo on the last night. Dates below:
      2 December
      9 December
      16 December
      23 December

    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten February 2026

      We have tours starting during that period but it is not in Lapland, but in Scandinavia. If you would like you can check our Vision of Scandinavia tour starting from Copenhagen 28th August as an example. Aurora Borealis tour has departures in December for next winter season.

    Jack

    Asked on January 8th, 2026

    the best place to see the northern lights there is up north in the areas of Inari / Ivalo / Saariselkä. I am not worried about going to the zoo. I just want to spend 2 days in the capital of laplan to all those things mentioned and then about 3/4 days up north where I can stay in an igloo, do the husky rides there etc. Is there anything like that on offer?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten January 2026

      Yes, we can definitely offer something like that. We can customize the tour according to your needs. Is 21st of February 2026 your preferred arrival date or is there any flexibility regarding your travel dates? In my opinion, if you prefer to do the winter safaris up in the north of Lapland, then there is no reason to go to Rovaniemi at all. Except if visiting Santa Claus Village is on your bucket list. Skipping Rovaniemi would make your travel easier, because otherwise we need to book for you a transfer from Rovaniemi to Inari / Ivalo / Saariselkä. Approximate travel time is 4-5 hours. Would make more sense to fly directly to Ivalo Airport.

    • J

      Jack

      TravelerWritten January 2026

      My ideal situation would be to spend a couple of days at least in Rovaniemi. I want to go to Santa Claus Village - and send a letter back home, complete with an official Santa stamp, to stand north of the Arctic Circle, and get a certificate to celebrate the achievement. Reindeer & Husky sledding. Where i can get a reindeer driving license. Glass Igloo with the chance to spot the Northern Lights from your own bed. The famous 'Santa Claus Express train. snow hotel. To go into the sea in one of those survial suits. So as you can see, whilst most of what I want to do is up north. A good couple of days in Rovaniemi is needed for the other things I want to do.

      Can optional activities be booked at the destination or do they need to be booked at the time of reservation?

      We consider a child up until 12 years old. We have 1 last room for the departure of 3rd January. There are activities that are included in the package and then there are optionals that we need to book in advance, if there is availability.

    Asked on November 20th, 2025

    Which glass igloo are we going to be staying at? Cam we upgrade to 2-4 nights in the igloo instead? Or one night in an igloo with floor to ceiling glass and 3 nights in a room with glass ceilings or large Windows will be great too!

    Accommodation
    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten November 2025

      The Igloo is at Santa Glass Igloo and the overnight is on the last night only. We can only ask if there is availability to add extra nights on the igloos. The first 3 nights are in Santa Hotel.

      How far is the drive from the Glass Igloo to the airport? Can we get an early morning EasyJet flight? Do you offer a hotel transfer or an additional night stay?

    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten October 2025

      Getting to the airport for an early morning flight should not be an issue. The drive is between 30/45 minutes depending on the exact location. We do offer airport transfers at any time.

    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten October 2025

      A post night in an igloo is available for the departure on January 10th. The cost will be 411 euro per person (822 euro total). We will hold the reservation until Friday the 24th of October.

    • V.O.S – Vision of ScandinaviaOperatorWritten October 2025

      Unfortunately 13th Dec is closed for sales since it is fully booked. Would you be interested in another date that is available like 10th January or 31st January? The price is final, but for the departure of 31st January I can offer you 65 Euros discount per person. You should use a flight that can bring you to Helsinki and then you can take a domestic flight or train (overnight or daytime) to Rovaniemi.

      If I have a party of 3, parents and child (10 years old), how can I select just one double room for them, so they stay together?

      Are they going to share the bed? We can add a supplement for the child as long as there is availability and possibility.
