There is too much much to say about how wonderful this trip was. From my first hotel Santa Clause hotel in the town of Rovaniemi, to the one night in a glass igloo at the arctic snow hotel it was epic!!!!! Husky sledding was so much fun, I entertained everyone by venturing off track and throwing myself and my passengers into deep snow it was hilarious. The reindeer sleigh ride was wonderful, through an enchanting forest with snow topped trees, snow falling on my face I was laying there thinking wow this is the life! Breakfast was lovely. Then wow to the arctic snow hotel, I've literally been telling every single person I meet they must go, the ice bar was great with banging tunes and having a cheeky shot then throwing the glass against the wall, it was so much fun. I also had a 3 course meal in the ice restaurant that night and it was delicious and such a beautiful place surrounded by ice carvings although -7 inside and that night it was -18 lol. Wow to the glass igloo, it was epic again I can't stop using that word, it was so comfortable and cosy inside compared to the bitter cold outside, lying on the bed looking at the stars and then seeing the northern lights was wonderful. The breakfast the next day was I think the best I've had anywhere in the world. Lingonberry crumble with caramel sauce...was only my starter lol. Thanku I've been asked who I booked with a few times and told everyone the details, it was wonderful xxx
Aurora & Glass Igloo Explorer - 5 Days - J
Judy • traveled in January, 2026
Overall I'd rate the trip average to good. The Scandic Polar is in need of a serious makeover, its very dated and the rooms were very hot. I wasn't looking for a 5 star hotel, but I'd give it 2 stars. Saying its semi escorted is a joke. They organise your activities and you either get picked up and dropped off or you make your own way to the tour operators office. I could and should have just organised this tour myself instead of using Tourradar. Having said that, it didn't deter us from having fun and thats why I gave this tour an okay to good rating.
