We had booked the tour in French but the day before we were warned that there would be no French guide but English. About the visit this place is superb the view is splendid and the guide in English was very kind and respectful we still recommend this excursion.
We had a great time with our guide Leo, who made us spend a very good day for this visit to Riisitunturi Park. Thank you very much!
