Day 1

Self-arranged arrival at Saija’s Tenniöjoki boat launching site by the river.

Distribution of equipment (life jackets, rain gear, wetsuits) taking into account the weather conditions. Introduction to SeaDoo jet skis, safety instructions, the driving event, and hand signals. Personal gear is packed into the jet’s storage compartment.

The guide provides individual instruction on how the jet ski operates, and a short ride is taken to go over all the taught material. Once everyone is familiar with operating the jet skis, we head downstream towards Savukoski.

At the beginning of the journey, we get accustomed to driving at different speeds, make turns, stops, reversals, gather as a group, practice water rescues, and learn how to tow a jet.

Upon reaching the campfire site, we disembark and enjoy safari snacks with coffee brewed over an open flame. After the meal, we continue towards Kuosku and then reach the Kemijoki River. We cruise downhill, and a few kilometers later, we arrive in Savukoski.

We disembark at Hotel Samperi’s Savotta. There’s an opportunity to visit the Metsähallitus Visitor Centre.

We set off on the return journey after a while, and now we can safely increase our speed on the large stretches of water, as we’ve gained quite a bit of driving experience. Driving against the current is slightly different from driving downstream.

Arrival at Saija’s boat launching site, where we disembark and return the equipment.

The safari covers a distance of approximately 90 km.

The self-arranged departure back home, enriched by an incredible experience.
