Review:

In central Finland, the city of Oulu marks the place where the Oulujoki River empties into the Bay of Bothnia. Though it is located below the Arctic Circle, Oulu is still a winter wonderland for visitors, with frequent views of the Northern Lights during the fall and winter seasons. Oulu is the largest and oldest city in northern Scandinavia, and this history is reflected in the city's buildings, like Oulu Castle, a structure built in the 16th century on the site of an even older fortress from about the 13th century. Tours and private guides will show visitors around the city of Oulu as well as the surrounding regions, including cross-country skiing, Arctic camping trips, and much more.
