Ivalo Safaris - Enare

Sander V. V.

A couple of months ago we had a great tour with Ivalo Safaris. We had a great (originated from Russia) tour guide. I believe his name was Maksym. Very friendly person and explained us a lot about the Finish culture, surrounding and history of Finland. I had great conversations with him and took great care. After we got our onesie suits and gloves, we were taken to the lake. Here the tour started on the 40km/h speed limited snow scooters. During the tour we made a photo stop and got some information about the lake. After that we drove to the hut to feed the reindeer and vot warm food and drinks. After that, we went back to the office.

Great experience with Ivalo Safaris! Very professional, with super friendly and well-trained staff who truly love their work and this land.

They are attentive to your needs at all times, ensuring you’re comfortable and, above all, warm.

The tour was very complete. After providing us with cold-weather gear—suits, jackets, socks, thermal warmers, and boots—the adventure began towards the lake.

There, we got on a sled pulled by a snowmobile and had the chance to admire the Northern Lights.

Later, we had dinner inside a tipi. A delicious salmon soup prepared by the lake owner’s mother, along with a sausage and hot juice, all served with great care and small details that make you feel like part of the family.

The group consisted of 13 people, attended by two staff members. It’s not one of those companies that overbook groups just to make more money.

A big thank you to Max for his attention and excellent service. And to Tina, always so attentive—thank you so much again!

The clothing they provide is freshly cleaned, and the changing room is spacious and spotless. The girl, super kind and attentive, along with Max, the guide, make sure you have everything you need and feel comfortable.

Contratamos con ellos tres actividades aunque la de los Husky no la hacen ellos como tal. El personal muy amable y la organización muy bien. El equipo que proporcionan para las actividades también está bien. Las actividades que si se hacen con ellos, en nuestro caso las auroras con cena incluida y la de las motos con comida se echa de menos probar algo distinto ya que la cena y la comida fueron idénticas. También echamos de menos que la visita a la villa tradicional no incluyera una visita como tal, ya que se llega, se da de comer a los renos y se cena o come pero no se visita la villa como tal y no incluye ninguna charla informativa sobre las tradiciones o cualquier otro tipo de información. Te responden a las preguntas si las haces pero poco más. Tuvimos suerte y pudimos ver las auroras, en ese sentido son flexibles para buscar el mejor día para verlas de los que estás allí.

Unforgettable experiences. A trip of a lifetime. Unimaginable wonders of nature. Friendly people. All thanks to Ivalo Safaris, Tina, Piia, Mico, .....
Tina and her team were very helpful and fulfilled our most unusual wishes. She advised us how to organize our short stay. For us, she made exceptions and we were able to carry out a night expedition on snowmobiles on the frozen Lake Inari. We are very impressed and it is difficult for us to express our admiration. We want to emphasize that the Finns, Sami and all others from Ivalo, Inari, Saariselka... from all over Finland my great patience and kindness to others. Thank you for showing us the kindness of your big hearts.

We joined Ivalo Safaris for the snowmobile tours and the northern lights tours. This family owned company is wonderful. Our guide Laura was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a fantastic experience. We were very lucky and saw the northern lights, met 3 reindeer, and had a wonderful lunch. Our northern lights tour was cancelled with another company and Ivalo Safaris got us in on short notice. I can’t say enough about the fun we had! The small group size is a definite plus.

Abbiamo fatto un’escursione privata in motoslitta. Tina è venuta a prenderci al camping e suo marito ci ha condotti sul fiume Ivalo ghiacciato. Abbiamo apprezzato molto il pranzo nella capanna sull’isola vicina alla loro abitazione e la conoscenza delle loro due renne… Tina ci ha dato diverse informazioni sulla vita che conducono in Lapponia ed è stata molto carina e accogliente. Unica pecca, avremmo gradito qualche spiegazione in più lungo il percorso in motoslitta e forse qualche ulteriore paesaggio.

Reservamos con ellos los safaris de moto de nieve con pesca en el lago inari y safari con huskies ( extrem huskies). Experiencia brutal, muy bien organizado. Recomendado 100%

Journée motoneige + pêche + lunch + rencontre avec les rennes. Nous avons passé une superbe journée ! Après une magnifique balade en motoneige sur la rivière Ivalo et le lac Inari, nous nous sommes arrêtés au milieu de nulle part pour apprendre à faire un trou dans la glace et pêcher. Une expérience reposante et unique ! Après la pêche, nous sommes allé déguster une saucisse et une délicieuse soupe de renne dans un tipi devant un beau feu, sur une île où se trouve également 2 rennes. Une très belle journée avec un très bon guide ! Je vous recommande !!
