| Rovaniemi | Fishing Posted: Sun October 18, 2009 08:38 PM UTC
Good day.
We are fishermen from Lithuania and we are interested in spending some time in Finland (Lapland) during the end of November. So we would like to know, what sort of fresh water fishing we will be introduced to? I mean, open water or ice fishing, lakes or rivers, types of fish? Also, if you don't mind telling us about the weather conditions in the region? And weather difficulties please. And lastly, we are traveling on our car. Thank you in advance for the info. |

| Ivalo | Ivalo and nearby Posted: Fri August 14, 2009 08:00 PM UTC
Hi,
we are staying in Helsinki and would like to go to Lapland. At the beginning we wanted to go to Ivalo and then rent a car till North Capp but at this moment this is impossible due to the high costs that this trip would have. So we are thinking about flying till Ivalo and then do something there: are there any bus connection to parks, citys or something nearby? If we don't rent a car how can we move above there? And do you think that the last week end of august will be good to see the northern lights? thank you in advance |

| Rovaniemi | Info about Rovaniemi - traveling in October Posted: Mon July 6, 2009 06:27 AM UTC
Hi all
I will be traveling to Finland (Helsinki & Rovaniemi) in the month of October. Is there a chance to see northern lights in October? What will be the best location in Rovaniemi to see northern lights? I can alter my plan and visit later if there are fare chances to see northern lights later and weather is not too harsh at that time. I am also concerned about the weather. If I have to go to arctic circle (away from city), will I need more warm clothes in that case? Can they be rented locally? Also, I will be on tight budget, so will be traveling by bus in the city. How is the bus service in the city and how much does it cost? Any suggestion would be of great help! |

| Lappi | Ivalo Posted: Wed June 10, 2009 07:40 AM UTC
Hello,
I might be in Ivalo/Inari this summer for a summer camp. I was wondering - since I'll be that far north, would it be a good idea to visit Nordkapp or northern Norway? Does anyone know what the approximate travel expenses would be for that? I would appreciate your help! |

We are going to be in Helsinki on a cruise ship on Wednesday, Jun 17, 2009 from 6:00 am - 5:00 pm. Originally I thought that we would go to Lapland, but that isn't one of the tours the ship offers. Is that because there is too little time?

| Pallas-Ounastunturin Kansallispuisto | Excursions from the Snowy Wilderness Lodge, Pallas Posted: Thu October 2, 2008 11:01 AM UTC
Hi! I know that it is isoloated, but are there any local companies running day/half day excursions from this hotel?
We are travelling with First Choice on Christmas Eve and their excursions seem very expensive, although all of the tasters are included already. I would like to visit Santa at his log cabin if that is possible, rather than in the hotel. Hope someone may be able to help. Thanks |

| Rovaniemi | Activities in Rovaniemi. Posted: Thu November 15, 2007 02:52 PM UTC
My wife and another couple are visiting Rovaniemi in March. We intend to take different safaris, husky, reindeer, Santa Claus etc., during our six day stay, but we were wondering what to do during the other hours of the day as they only last for a few hours. This is my third visit to Rovaniemi (both previous visits during November)and I did not mind the cold weather, even though I used to go about only in my suit, as it was a business trip. But my wife and the other couple are a bit worried regarding the clothes they should wear. It would be appreciated if advice on the best clothing to wear is forwarded.
Kiitos. |

| Rovaniemi | General advice on Rovaniemi Posted: Wed October 31, 2007 12:50 PM UTC
I am travelling to Rovaniemi next week (having left Australia some two months ago) and although I have several woolen jumpers, fleece etc with me I am now concerned about how cold it could get. I would like to take the train up from Helsinki overnight, spend one or two nights in Rovaniemi and then take either the day or overnight train back to Helsinki.
Any advice on how cold it COULD get, good (but not too expensive) hotels, things to do/see would be very much appreciated. |

| Lappi | Activities in Yllas Posted: Fri September 28, 2007 07:51 PM UTC
We are planning to go to Yllas on a skiing holiday, but we also want to do lots of other things, like snowmobiling, husky and reindeer safaris, etc. The problem is we don't know exactly how many of these we'd like to do - if we enjoy the skiing very much, we might be too busy! The travel agent is pushing us to prebook. My question: is it possible to find places to book these things at the resort, or are they really sold out long in advance?
