FAQ
We are a couple. Can we book a ride for just two people The minimum number of participants for this private tour is three, so bring a friend. Alternatively, we offer another tour at Sahanlahti Resort with a minimum of two participants.
Is the safari suitable for families with children? If your children are at least 10 years old and can ride a bike, then yes, this is a good choice for you. Your personal guide will pay special attention to safety when there are small children in the group, and you will all be well instructed before the safari begins. If the above conditions are not met, you should look for another activity that is easier for children.
What happens if the weather is very cold? The safaris take place when the temperature is above -25 degrees Celsius. All participants must wear warm winter clothing (if necessary, we provide warm winter overalls, boots, and gloves, but only in adult sizes). You can book the clothing in advance.
Reasons to book now
The electric snowmobile safari is a new, innovative program that is expected to sell out quickly. We recommend booking early to secure your best winter adventure.
