Really nice tour. We had very polite and knowledgeable lady guide and really comfortable vehicle. On the way to zoo we saw reindeers and fox. Thanks to our guide that we had flexible time for lunch and shopping. For regular tour- excellent service.

Guide was great, on time and friendly, got to enjoy the zoo (which was really good) at our own leisure and wasn’t rushed if wanted food afterwards before the journey back. Highly recommend 😀

I did not think the tour was good value for money & didn't provide any guide services as listed in the description.

Had a great time at zoo and thanks for the arrangement! We felt like having a tailored private tour and our guide explained a lot of useful travel tips at Rovaniemi – will recommend to friends when they visit here!

We had a very comfortable ride and nice guide who came to pick us up from our accommodation. Felt safe and relaxed. Thank you!

Paid €110 for a trip to Ranua zoo, not private. This could have been €13 on a bus & €23 on entry. There is 9 benefit to the tour. No mention that nearly all animals won't be visible this time of year (November). & the tour mentions that it is guided, but it is not. You are driven to the zoo, & told to go in, that's it, but you pay a €71 premium, providing no additional value to catching the bus yourself. Big waste of money. Highly advisable to not get this tour. Also got threatened with police after asking for a refund haha

Arnti (not sure if it’s correctly spelled) is a friendly and knowledgeable guide! Tour is as per described! As usual for the zoo visits, we don’t always get to see all the animals they got.. I didn’t get to see the moose, red foxes and brown bears (hibernating in winter). It’s -7degrees on our visit and thankfully we were ready for the weather. Overall a pleasant experience.

Transfer was all fine and everything ran on time. Communication was good, however the package said a guide is provided. We assumed the guide would talk us through the animals at the zoo. The guide left us to explore the zoo on our own, which we didn’t mind but this should’ve been explained in the package we bought and the price should’ve reflected that accordingly.
