Meals

All breakfasts, five lunches and seven evening meals are included. The food at Basecamp is a delicious range of locally sourced (Finnish food) prepared by the in-house chef. Starters consist of a salad buffet with three to four different choices. The main courses consist of wild game such as elk, chicken and salmon. Vegetarian options are also available. Dessert consists of lingonberries, blueberries and cloudberries, which have often been picked by the chefs. These berries are served with a selection of quark kurd, cream, ice cream, cakes and pancakes. Lunch is normally a hot soup with elk, salmon or a vegetarian option. If you have any dietary requirements (including the ones mentioned below), please inform your customer operations executive at the time of booking, so Basecamp can prepare for this. Vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free diets are easily catered for on this trip.

Transport

A minibus is used for transfers. Airport transfers are included for those on the group flights. Please note that transfers are not included for clients arriving on any other flight, even if Exodus has booked it. If you require airport transfers, you may (by prior arrangement only) be able to join the group transfer. Transfers are arranged to coincide with the arrival time of the group flight ‐ please check the group flight details 2 weeks before departure. If you do not take this transfer, or miss it, you must make your own way to the joining point at your own expense.

Accommodation

Basecamp Oulanka is a superb self-sustaining wooden complex inspired by its wild, remote location. Twin rooms are in two separate buildings. The third building is a cosy restaurant and bar, with a log fire, sauna and outdoor hot tub. The heating system used throughout the complex relies totally on nature, using special wood pellets for fuel. Please be aware, multiple Exodus trips are running at Basecamp at the same time and you might share the room with a member of a different group. Please note, there are Exodus family groups at Basecamp during the school holidays.
