ABOUT US
WHO ARE WE?
We are Wild About Lapland, a lead company that provides high-quality tours and experiences to travelers and small groups in Rovaniemi, the capital town of Finnish Lapland and home town of Santa Claus. We are passionate about sharing our lifestyle and it is what we do best. Our main goal in Wild About Lapland is to provide tours that allow all individuals to experience exactly what they wish for, whether it be to experience the Northern lights, learn how to ice fish, take a reindeer ride, meet Santa or simply explore the Taïga forests.
Our Philosophy
A responsible experience of Lapland
We avoid mass tourism, allowing a maximum of 8 people per tour.
This allows us to have a closer relation to our guests and experience the silence of the real Lapland nature.
Teaching and sharing
Our guides not only have years of experience but they are passionate about sharing it with others.
They also have a strong understanding of the impact we are having on this wonderful world of ours and love to share some of the ways we can help and be kinder to our surroundings.
Quality before quantity
We concentrate on providing quality tours for small groups, reducing our impact on the world and yet staying true to what we are good at, which is to share the special things we have here in Rovaniemi, the Finnish Lapland.
Meet our Passionate Team
Theo Turner, the owner, and lead tour guide has extensive experience of the outdoors. He is a former Royal Marine Commando and Professional Outdoor Instructor. He has a great understanding of the Northern Lights and the Wilderness and how to survive and appreciate it. Now one of his greatest passions is to share the natural phenomena, opportunities, and beauty that the Finnish Lapland has to offer.
While on any of our specialized tours, our guides will give you more than just the experience you came for. What we want you to get out of it is knowledge! When you finish the tour you will have a good understanding of your surroundings here in the Lapland wilderness, the local people and the Saami people, the wildlife, and even a few key Finnish words.
Be our Guests!
We are happy to take you on any of our specialised tours and show you what real Lapland is. Contact us for more information, or send us an enquiry and we will get back to you as soon as possible! Each and every time we receive a request we will create a quotation that fits your needs.
Are you solo travelers?
We want all solo travelers to know that we will happily run a tour just for them. We do this because we at Wild About Lapland have also been solo travelers in our time and take our hat off to people who are brave enough to seek new adventures alone. As a solo traveler, you are also very much welcome to join any tour that already has a start.
Are you a family group?
If you are travelling with your family and wish to have a tour that is specifically fitting to you, we will happily arrange something that suits your needs. We can even try and arrange tour times around your children’s nap times!
Are you a business group?
If you are arranging a trip away for your colleagues, employees or business partners, then please send us an email with a detailed list of things you wish to achieve and experience whilst in Lapland.
Meet us in Rovaniemi!
Our main office is located at 24 Rovakatu, 96200 Rovaniemi (FINLAND). Come and let’s plan your next great experience together!
