We had a hike on an island in the snow, followed by the most delicious Salmon soup, coffee and tea by the fire. Then we finished off with our ice swim, the survival suits kept us warm and dry and it was very relaxing floating amongst the ice. We learned a lot about finish lifestyle and culture from Lief! Highly recommend this tour in Helsinki they looked after us from start to finish and even provided the clothing…”
