In south-west Lapland you find a working Ice Breaker ship which provides one of Finland's unique incentive experiences – take a snowmobile out onto the Baltic Sea, crush through the ice on-board the vessel, then take a dip in the icy Baltic Sea (with survival suits of course!). Complete your special Ice Experience with a visit or overnight stay in the nearby Snow Castle – ice bar, restaurant, and igloos. Moving on to Rovaniemi on the Arctic Circle, enjoy activities such as husky sledding, team-building games, and Arctic Rally driving.
From January 2017, we will be adding the world's first ice driving on the sea programme - have your group be one of the first to enjoy this experience.
Start the tour with a stay in the fantastic Snow Castle - drinks in the Ice Bar and overnight in an igloo room.
