Program operates like a classic safari program “Lappish circle” with a shorter distance and possibility for children to drive mini-snowmobile in a private area under a supervision of a guide. Currently available is kids’ snowmobile for children 80-120 cm height / max. 40 kg weight / app. 3-12 y.o. Safe and fun experience.
During the stopover you will get a warm drink (coffee/tea) and grill sausages by the open fire. After this you will head back home on snowmobiles. Children drive mini snowmobiles only after the final stop. During the safari they ride in sledge behind the guide.
The tour will start at a local safari house in Levi, where you will change into gear, guaranteed to keep you warm and dry during the safari, including overall, boots, helmet and gloves. Once equipped, a guide will give you brief instructions, and off you go!
The average speed during our tours is limited due to safety and traffic regulations. Two adults ride on one snowmobile, unless single (solo) supplement has been booked. Children under 130 cm of height ride in a sleigh pulled by the guide’s snowmobile.

Recommendation
- Please take your driving license with you on the snowmobile safari as the police may check the validity of the license during the safari.
- We recommend wearing thermo body-wear + multilayer clothing and woolen socks. You will get warm outer clothing and boots before the safari.
- For those people who consider self-rental: out there you’ll be surrounded by almost total whiteness, so it’s quite easy to lose one’s way for the first time, that’s why to guarantee the quality time, we highly recommend for the first time to go on an organized safari with an experienced local guide.
