Whist we were in Helsinki for Easter, we took the opportunity to undertake this challenge! The weather was good and wind was in our favor. Leif is an excellent instructor. As we are non-swimmers, he was assured us that this was no barrier to taking part in this experience. He was right! He provided all the gear we needed and gently guided us into the water. Within minutes, we were afloat and able to even relax! We had as much time as we needed in the water. It was a most uplifting experience. Equally fascinating were the insights and stories Leif told us about how the suits are used as part of lifesaving equipment (with very short times to deploy them in real emergencies). I could only imagine what that could be like after the leisurely time we had in comparison! Also, we were given lifesaving survival tips, which are invaluable. You can tell that Leif is a true professional with lots of expertise in this field. All in All, a fantastic experience and we would thoroughly recommend it to others. Thank you Leif!My mum and I chose to do the activity whilst visiting Helsinki and we could not recommend it more! The experience was unforgettable and Oli was super kind and knowledgable throughout. Highly recommend the experience!

Highly recommend the experience!Perfect day! We had an archipelago tour with a hovercraft, delicious lunch made on an open fire on a beautiful island, and we finished with floating in the icy sea in survival suits. We ("the locals") enjoyed it very much and it was a unique experience - and even better for our foreign guests!

This experience was actually a part of my birthday surprise and I so loved it!! We had Lief as the instructor and he explained everything to us so well. He was super friendly and very patiently answered all our questions and helped us to adjust to this new and completely different activity we decided to try. I would definitely recommend doing this. You will be so surprised at how relaxing and surreal it is.We had an awesome experience doing the arctic floating in Uunisaari, Helsinki. We celebrated a 30th birthday, and this was a great experience for the whole group. Definitively something everyone should try! It's at the same time very peaceful, yet very exciting.

We had an awesome experience doing the arctic floating in Uunisaari, Helsinki. We celebrated a 30th birthday, and this was a great experience for the whole group. Definitively something everyone should try! It's at the same time very peaceful, yet very exciting. Would definitively do again! Everything was handled with superb professionalism, and we got very useful information about survival and hypothermia. Leif is a wonderful and friendly host!Group of 4 girls booked this up whilst we were away for our friends hen do. We absolutely loved it!
