On the day of your snowmobile-pulled sleigh ride from Ivalo, you'll need to arrive at the meeting point in the Xwander Nordic headquarters. You can also hire your instructor's transportation service from Inari, Nellim, Kakslauttanen, Kiilopää and Saariselkä, for 20 euros per person. Once you get there, your instructor will distribute the thermal overalls, boots, and mittens they lend you to keep warm during the experience. Then, it's time to head to the starting point of the experience, where the snowmobile and sleigh will be waiting for you.
Once you're in the cosy sleigh, it's time to go! Your instructor will drive you around the snow-covered forest and frozen lake near Ivalo. They will make a few stops, where you'll get to sit on reindeer hides and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of Finnish Lapland.
