Highly recommended!

R Paul was punctual and very kind for our transfer to Rauna zoo. The car is new and comfortable, the driving was safe and we felt communication was good. We had such a positive experience that we also decided to get our next transfer to the Snowhotel with him.

Amazing trip to the Ranua Zoo

We really liked the trip, it was wonderful! Paul arrived at the agreed time, as it was written, he did not put us together with other groups. It was exactly as it says in the description of the trip. The ride was very pleasant and Paul was an excellent guide and interlocutor.

Highly recommend this tour

We had a really lovely experience on this zoo tour. It was just me and my girlfriend, and our guide was incredibly nice, pleasant, and kind from start to finish. He picked us up directly from our hotel and explained the plan for the day on the way, which made everything feel very easy and well organised. When we arrived, he showed us where the restaurant was and let us know that our meal was included in the tour. He also gave us a clear plan for exploring the zoo, told us the polar bear feeding time, and shared a few helpful tips so we wouldn’t miss anything important. After that, he let us explore the zoo on our own, which was perfect for us as a couple. It felt relaxed, well-planned, and very enjoyable. Overall, it was a great experience and we’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting. Thank you for such a pleasant and memorable day!
