Summer Tours in Lapland
If you think Lapland is only about snow and Santa, you’re missing half the story. When the snow finally retreats, the Arctic undergoes a transformation that is almost impossible to describe. It’s a place where the sun literally forgets to set, and the vibrant green of the ancient forests contrasts with the deep blue of thousands of untouched lakes. This is the Midnight Sun season, and it is Lapland’s best-kept secret.
Our summer tours in Lapland are designed for those who seek true wilderness and a slower pace of life. Whether you’re looking to hike through the rugged fells of Rovaniemi or experience the surreal peace of a midnight boat ride, we’ll show you a side of Finland that most travelers never get to see.

Arctic Summer: Embracing the Magic of the Midnight Sun
From early June to late July, the sun stays above the horizon 24/7 in the northernmost parts of Finland. This phenomenon, known as the Midnight Sun, creates an incredible energy that you won’t find anywhere else. Locals call it the season of “limitless time,” where the days merge into one another, offering endless opportunities for exploration. Our Lapland summer packages are built around this unique light, allowing you to experience the Arctic at its most vibrant.
What to Experience in Lapland During Summer?
While the activities differ from the winter season, the adrenaline and wonder remain the same. In the summer, the Arctic landscape becomes accessible in a whole new way:
- Active Adventures: Enjoy world-class Arctic hiking in national parks, or try mountain biking through trails that were covered in meters of snow just months before.
- Wildlife Encounters: Summer is the best time to see reindeer roaming freely across the roads and forests. You can also visit husky farms for “summer sledding” on wheels or meet the reindeer in their lush summer habitat.
- Cultural Immersion: Learn about the Sámi culture and their deep connection to the land during the fishing and berry-picking seasons.
- River and Lake Life: From peaceful kayaking on the Ounasjoki river to traditional Finnish sauna experiences followed by a dip in a crystal-clear Arctic lake.
