GOOD TO KNOW
Clothing for winter training and travel
Good winter clothing is very important for the Arctic Circle. Thermal underwear, hats, gloves for low temperatures and winter shoes are necessary.
We recommend warm winter clothing for the journey, as it can get as cold as minus 40 degrees. You can use normal, light, sporty winter clothes for driving training, as all vehicles are equipped with heating.
Equipment for the snowmobile safari
Equipment such as helmet, mask, suit, boots and gloves are provided by the snowmobile organizer.
Costs/additional costs
Food and alcohol are somewhat more expensive in Lapland/Finland than in Germany. But not as much as is often said.
Typical Lapland souvenirs are Sami handicrafts made of wood, bone or fur, the famous Finnish knife or various handicrafts made of precious metals or textiles.
This and that
The Finnish electricity network works on 220 volts, i.e. the sockets for electrical appliances are the same as those in Central Europe.
In Finland, smoking is absolutely prohibited in all public places, facilities and buildings. Restaurants offer non-smoking areas.
Lapland/Finland is on Eastern European time, i.e. the clock is one hour ahead.
It is not customary to give tips in restaurants, taxis and other services.
Common credit cards are accepted everywhere as a means of payment. You can easily withdraw money from ATMs using your EC card (Maestro).
Lapland/Finland is considered a safe travel destination.
Nevertheless, valuables, suitcases and bags should not be left lying around carelessly.
