We stayed in a GLASS IGLOO in ARCTIC CIRCLE | Cost, Tour, Food & More | Lapland | Finland

We travelled to Finland in February 2024 for a week. We had an itinerary packed with fun activities like meeting Santa Claus, staying in glass igloos, hunting the Northern Lights and more. This is the third part of the 3 video series. In this video, I show you our stay experience at glass igloos in Finland.

We paid 500 euros per night for this igloo!! So 1000 euros for two nights.. Somehow the cost part got edited and I didn’t notice that!! So apologies 😅

I think those comments about food and water in the end of the video are unfair. Finland in general is an expensive country even for many locals. And as you go up north both food and accommodations get even more expensive because hotel and resort businesses here are seasonal. Some properties even have to close down completely to save costs in the off-season. The northern region is sparsely populated and finding and buying groceries can be challenging even for locals who don't live centrally. So expecting Indian food in the middle of nowhere where anything barely grows is rather unfair. Running water (especially hot water) is actually a luxury in cottages and such hotels. This is because in Finland plumbing is THE most expensive thing to get done in construction and supplying hot water is even more expensive. I think staying in cottages or such remote hotels can be quite surprisingly different experience that staying at actual hotels with all the amenities. So, its best to be prepared beforehand. I remember during one of the trips to Inari for an event, I was the only guest at one hotel for first 1.5 days. Luckily the owner/chef/housekeeper warned me about location of the hotel and we stopped by some grocery store to get some food for backup. From personal experiences from business and leisure trips, I recommend staying in Rovaniemi. You can stay at comfortable hotels, have better culinary experience and enjoy all those same activities (northern light tours, reindeer safaris, Santa clause village and other day activities). Rovaniemi also has better and cheaper connectivity. If you are comfortable driving in snow, you can also rent and car and drive around. Also during weekdays almost all the restaurants offer lunch at much cheaper price.

[@apurva_v_arora]

Great video! Thanks for all the info! That's the thing about living abroad, while in India you dream of living in developed countries but when you actually stay in one, its just not worth it ! I moved to the UK a year ago, and I terribly miss India 😪

Are kitne din Ruke aur Kitna kharcha hai aur yah bata do yaar

[@shruthisudhindra4866]

U are basically doing ice camping so u can’t expect shower area and mirror.. camping life is not same as normal touristy spot..

[@poojaonthego]

I understand.. there are many igloos that give showers in their base room too. I mentioned for the cost we are paying, that should have been minimum. Paying extra 200 euros for showers is bit ridiculous. Just my opinion :)

[@sakinakhambati4802]

how do you manage in such an extreme temperature??​@@poojaonthego

[@Pachamaala]

Something I am just not encouraged to do. Too cold for me to even plan to a place like this.. And using poor animals to push you - no way 🙁

[@ag3480]

I WOULD HAVE WENT BY WALK, RATHER THAN POOR ANIMAL PULLING ME.

[@MokshiDedhia]

Thankyouuuu🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@amruthasathish3309]

Reindeer ride, isn’t it an animal abuse?

[@ashishkgp]

you look like chubby alia bhatt. so cute

[@ridaansare]

You are very very beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

[@MB-xw8ir]

First world privilege

[@Runali_Chavan]

Poor animal. Walk for 45 minutes.. Animal cruelty.. Feeling sad for animals

[@ritushakerkar6351]

But stop hurting animals please 🥺🥺🥺 are we do this to human?

[@smartviwer5520]
