Who we are and what we do
The Rovaniemi guide association has been offering guided tours for tourists in Rovaniemi and its surroundings since 1972. Our authorized tourist guides are experts on our local culture, on history, heritage and on relevant cultural sights.
Our guides work as bus- and city walking guides in and around Rovaniemi. We inform visitors about the local environment, its history and present developments.
