Moose on a field

Join us for an adventure on Moose Safari!

Fast facts:

Only 30–45 minutes from central Helsinki, there is an exceptionally high density of moose and other wildlife. Moose sightings are guaranteed on this tour or you don’t pay!

This is one of the best wildlife experiences in Finland (5.0 stars in Google reviews).

Moose Safari has 10 years of experience. We know the ways of the moose.

The price is 160 euros per adult in a shared tour. The price of a private tour depends on the details such as the number of people in your group.

On this safari the group size is limited to a maximum of 4 persons which is helpful in getting close to wild animals without disturbing them. Avoid mass tourism and enjoy a unique experience like this.

Last minute inquiries are welcome, but it is a good idea to reserve your spot as early as possible especially if your flexibility with dates is limited.

The tour in a nutshell

Moose Safari offers a rare, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to encounter wild moose in their natural habitat—just 30 to 45 minutes from the heart of Helsinki. The tour includes convenient pick-up and drop-off from anywhere in the city, making your adventure easy and hassle-free.

The safari lasts approximately 3 to 4 hours and is available annually from May 15th to October 30th. During summer, tours begin at 8:00 PM—thanks to Finland’s long northern days, you’ll be exploring in broad daylight even late into the evening.

Please inquire about morning tours which run in September and October.

🫎Moose Sightings Guaranteed
