They explained in great details how to fish, performed demonstrations for everyone and were of great help with the kids. We caught fish with a fishing line, then checked the nets. Eventually we had such a great time around the fire in the tent. This day by the lake in the forest is one of our best experiences ever. A must do in Lapland!”

When the meal was prepared her husband also joined us. Kavitha speaks excellent English. The area we went shopping is a real residential area that we went to by metro.... you see local people doing normal things, a very different environment to the west. The food was excellent. Overall its a 10/10 from me and my wife. MUST DO.”
