Your Travel Experience with ARRIVAL
Day 1
ARRIVAL
Arrive in Rovaniemi, where the air bites and the sky already feels closer. Transfer to Aito Igloo Resort—your first home in the Arctic wild. Settle into your forest-view igloo, warm from within, while the snow deepens outside. Hit the spa, breathe in pine and silence, and begin the slow shedding of city skin.
Day 1 - 7
Aito Igloo & Spa Resort
Forest-view rooms, treehouse suites and a spa that feels like it was carved from the snow gods’ dreams. Intimate, isolated, indulgent. Aurora views from your bed.
Day 2
Throttle & Thaw: Snowmobile and Spa
Roar through powdered forests by day, then melt into a steamy wood-fired sauna under stars. A contrast so vivid, it rewires your nervous system.
Aurora Through a Lens
Follow expert photographers into the Arctic dark, where auroras bloom like ghosts. Learn to shoot them, chase them and take home not just images – but awe.
Day 3
Korouoma Canyon Hike & Forest Stew
Trek into a canyon where icicles hang like chandeliers. Refuel with slow-simmered Lappish stew cooked over open flames, deep in pine-scented stillness.
Day 4
Riisitunturi Snow Cathedral
Snowshoe through Lapland’s most untouched park, where snow-laden trees stand like silent monks. A meditative walk that feels like stepping into folklore.
Day 5
Ice Fishing
A hole in the ice, a line in the deep and nothing but silence between you and the catch. It’s not about the fish – okay, it is about the fish – but there’s magic in the stillness, the ritual, the flicker of flame when you grill it fresh, lakeside, like a local legend.
Reindeer Fire Feast
Spend golden hour with Sámi herders and fellow intrepid travellers. Feed reindeer, share stories and taste tradition by the fire. Not a tour – an initiation.
Day 6
Husky Sledding
Just you, the dogs and the white wild ahead. It’s not about speed – it’s about surrendering to the rhythm of the sled, the howl of the wind and the thrill of trust.
Day 6 - 7
Treehouse Aurora Suite
Your final night is spent in an elevated glass cocoon, cradled by the forest canopy. The lights might come, or not. But the silence? Always there.
Day 7
Departure
One last breakfast in your warm wooden cocoon. Transfer to the airport with snow still in your hair and the kind of silence only Lapland can leave behind. You came here to chase light. Turns out, it found you too.
