Tailor-Made Trips to Finland

⸻

Not knowing where to begin when planning our trip to Finland, I started by searching online for travel specialists who focus on the Lapland region—and that’s how I came across kimkim. After completing a quick questionnaire about the type of trip we were hoping for, we were connected with Emerson, who took care of every detail from that point on.

We scheduled a Zoom call to go over our wish list and discuss the level of accommodations we had in mind. Emerson’s personal experience in the Lapland region really stood out—he offered thoughtful suggestions on where to go, what to do, and even shared valuable insight on some of the stops we were considering. We truly appreciated his honest input.

Following our call, Emerson provided a detailed itinerary that outlined everything—from accommodations to excursions to transfers. We were able to adjust it several times to better suit our schedule and interests, and he was always responsive and helpful in answering our questions leading up to the trip. During the trip itself, he remained quick to respond whenever needed.

Everything unfolded exactly as planned. The accommodations met our expectations, and the tours and excursions were led by knowledgeable, professional guides. One guide was also a professional photographer who led us through a national park and sent us home with beautiful photos of our day!
The day-by-day itinerary made everything seamless and stress-free. A couple of our northern lights tours were unfortunately canceled due to cloudy weather, but we were pleasantly surprised to receive refunds for those experiences.

We’re already looking forward to planning our next adventure and would absolutely work with kimkim again. We can’t recommend Emerson and the company highly enough—thank you for an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime trip!

I had a wonderful time on our Northern Lights trip in Norway and Finland. Some of our planned activities were cancelled due to the warm weather and lack of snow. Moonika took care of rebooking cancelled activities like snow shoeing, dog sledding and snowmobiling to other locations that still had snow. We were able to see the Northern lights in several locations and enjoy the culture and history of the area. Overall, a very enjoyable vacation and would highly recommend Moonika in coordinating travel plans.

This was a very easy process. I sent a few details of things I would like to do to Roy, my local specialist, and then had a call with him where he asked my preferences, including what I liked to do, how busy I wanted to be, etc. He came up with a perfect trip! The website had very easy to navigate information about the trip, including information on the tours and places I was going to sea, tickets for entry, details on where to meet, and an emergency contact number in case of any issue. Camila was also helpful in providing any updates or changes to my itinerary. For me, I said I was interested in outdoors-y type activities, I liked animals and art, and really wanted to see the Northern Lights. I was scheduled for an afternoon on an ice breaker that included a swim in the water in a survival suit, chasing northern lights in Lapland that including a fire with roasted marshmallows, warm blueberry juice, and salmon soup, a visit to the Arctic museum, and to the Wildlife Park. Unfortunately, the weather got too warm in Finland to go snowshoeing or ice fishing, but the team offered alternatives (I was too jet lagged to take it so took the day off!) Overall, I highly recommend. Easy to book, easy to follow, great people.
