*May vary, depending on custom builds
The stage is a purpose-built circuit of ice and snow, guided by professional instructors throughout. The Arctic environment is unforgiving, and driving at speed demands full focus and feel. These are the same conditions used by manufacturers to push their cars to the limits, deep forests, frozen lakes and open tundra.
The experience spans two full days on the track. Both driver and car will be tested without compromise.
Choose from up to 30 luxury models and drive on full-scale circuits recreated on frozen lakes. Pure performance, on ice.
Finland has produced some of the world's finest rally drivers. Now you can experience their home terrain firsthand, snow-covered forest roads, ice-covered corners, and all the drift you can handle.
For the devoted 911 enthusiast, specially prepared 911 RS models are available for race-inspired ice driving near Ylläs, Finland.
As the leading luxury and ultra-luxury DMC in the Nordic region, we have spent over a decade curating exceptional Lapland journeys. We bring a carefully built portfolio of fully appointed private villas, world-class experience providers, and genuine hands-on knowledge from the field.
Each villa in our portfolio is fully equipped, privately staffed and chosen with one purpose: to place guests as close to the Arctic as possible. Sweeping wilderness views, front-row access to the Northern Lights, and a private host who bridges accommodation and adventure.
Our hotels are chosen one by one. Each offers a rare harmony of design and architecture, spaces that dissolve into the Lapland forest, where frost-covered trees, frozen light and open skies become an extension of the interior itself. The nature outside is never a backdrop. It is always the main event.
Some experiences exist nowhere else on earth. Reindeer safaris, snowmobile expeditions and authentic encounters with Sámi culture are the ones guests remember longest.
Above it all, the Northern Lights appear on most clear evenings, with dedicated viewing experiences arranged so that one of nature's greatest spectacles is never simply left to chance.
Few experiences carry the weight of a child's eyes meeting Father Christmas for the first time. Our private Santa Claus audience is crafted from beginning to end: elves, gingerbread cookies and a carefully built sense of wonder, leading to a personal meeting with Santa himself and gifts for the children. Unforgettable for the little ones. And for the adults who still believe, even a little.
