Icebreaker Sampo Cruise from Oulu

A true bucket-list Arctic experience from Oulu, this unforgettable adventure aboard the legendary Icebreaker Sampo takes you across the frozen Bothnian Sea for an extraordinary winter journey.

With round-trip transfers from Oulu to the harbor in Kemi included, your day runs smoothly from start to finish. During the 4-hour cruise, watch the powerful vessel carve through thick sea ice and admire the spectacular Arctic scenery.

You’ll be welcomed with a non-alcoholic drink before joining a guided tour of the ship, including areas such as the engine room and captain’s bridge. Step onto the frozen sea (weather permitting) and experience the thrill of floating in icy waters while wearing a thermal survival suit. A warm lunch is served on board, and you’ll receive a certificate to mark your adventure.

Relax in the ship’s comfortable lounges or café-restaurant as you take in panoramic winter views. Your ticket also includes access to exhibitions and experiences at the SnowCastle area, adding even more Arctic magic to your day.
