Cruising through the frozen landscape on board the icebreaker Sampo. Feel the crackling ice and take a dip in Arctic Waters dressed in a watertight thermal suit.

The Sampo, the world's only tourist icebreaker, operates on the northern Gulf of Bothnia out of Kemi in Finnish Lapland.The Sampo Icebreaker has been carrying tourists on Arctic adventures since 1988. The vessel sails from the middle of December to the end of April and trips last four hours. The icebreaker is able to crush ice up to eight metres thick. The crew will let you in all the ship's secrets on a guided tour.
Don't give the daredevil in you the cold shoulder - put on a flotation suit and dip in the ice-cold water! It may look scary at first, but it's completely safe.

The trips last four hours. For scheduled sailings, it's worthwhile making make a reservation well in advance. We recommend these cruises both for individual travellers and for groups. The ship can also be booked entirely for private use. All charter trips are conducted to a programme selected by the customer, and prepared package tours are also offered.
