Thrill and excitement amongst the peace and quiet!

New in 2024, our Snowmobile Voyager holiday brings to life the highlights and landmarks of True Lapland via the thrill of the snowmobile. Zip along frozen rivers, weave across the Arctic tundra, and delve into the pristine snow scenes that stretch to the horizon. And what a backdrop to your snowmobile adventure this is! Based at the foot of the snow-capped Lyngen Alps, and perched on the edge of Lake Kilpis, Kilpisjarvi is the perfect base from which to explore the most northern parts of True Lapland – a very special place indeed, where unspoiled nature and fresh adventure await.

An undoubted highlight of this tour is venturing out on snowmobile to the ‘three borders’ point, where Norway, Finland and Sweden meet – circle around all three countries in less than 30 seconds! And there’s more – this holiday also includes a Northern Lights snowmobile tour, where you may be dazzled by the dancing Aurora, and a reindeer camp excursion where you’ll be introduced to the local Sami and their way of life.  

Kilpisjarvi is often cited as a favourite Lapland resort, and this snowmobiling holiday showcases it at its finest!

All snowmobile drivers should be aged 17 or above and hold a valid driving licence.

Included Activities

Your Snowmobile Voyager holiday begins with a morning flight to Enontekio Airport, on our direct charter flight, exclusive to Transun. Enontekio is a very small airport and yours is likely to be the only flight that day. From there, you make the two-hour transfer to Kilpisjarvi, with a stop enroute to collect your thermal suits and snow boots, which you keep for the duration of your stay in Lapland.

Upon arrival in Kilpisjavi, you’ll be shown to your chosen hotel or cabin, where your stay will be on a full-board basis, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Your Transun rep will give a welcome presentation and highlight some of the features of the area – Kilpis is steeped in myths and legends, and the spectacular surrounding scenery provides the perfect backdrop to these fascinating stories.

Your Snowmobile Voyager holiday will include the following excursions, though you may wish to add further activities from our available range, to make your holiday extra special:

The Three Borders Snowmobile Safari

Duration: Half Day

The highpoint of this holiday is the snowmobile tour to the Three Borders point, where Finland, Sweden and Norway meet – supposedly the most peaceful such border in the world. Cross all three countries in a matter of seconds! Two adults share a snowmobile.*

Northern Lights Snowmobile Safari

Duration: 2 Hours

Kilpisjarvi is on the official Northern Lights Route, so hop on your snowmobile and venture out to an ideal remote location in the hope of catching the swaying Aurora overhead. Two adults share a snowmobile.*

Sami Reindeer Experience

Duration: 2.5 Hours

A fascinating introduction to a reindeer farm given by a Sami family who have been herding in the area for hundreds of years; this tour includes an 800m sleigh ride and the opportunity to feed the reindeer.

Arctic Ice Fishing by Snowmobile

Duration: 1.5 Hours

Travelling by snowmobile, you arrive at a frozen lake where you can try your hand at traditional ice fishing - you just drill a hole in the ice and lower your baited hook into the icy waters below. (Available on 4 nights only).

Is Snowmobile Voyager suitable for beginners?

Prior experience of snowmobile driving is not necessary, though a degree of mobility is required and so this tour may not be suitable for those with medical or complex needs. If you have mobility issues, we would advise speaking to one of our customer service staff before booking to ensure this holiday is suitable.

Can anyone drive a snowmobile?

Driving a snowmobile in Finland is like driving a car, and similar laws apply. A full valid driving licence is required - please ensure you bring this with you as it must be presented in resort. Normal traffic laws apply on snowmobile routes. A damage waiver must be signed before commencing the activity. Credit card verification is taken and a €980 excess is payable for any damage, irrespective of severity, prior to leaving resort. The guide’s safety instructions must be followed, and safety helmets must be worn at all times.

What currency should I take?

The currency in Finland is the Euro. Many hotels and establishments in the Nordic countries will not accept cash and only accept card payments. All Transun optional excursions are advertised in Sterling; credit and debit cards are accepted as payment for excursions booked in resort.

Can I add on additional excursions and activities when in Lapland?

If you wanted to make your holiday extra special, it is possible to add on additional activities to your tour after arriving in Lapland. However, availability of activities and excursions is limited and so we recommend that you book your place before you travel to guarantee your place.
