My son and I recommend Yampu enthusiastically
The Franzettis Return Again and Again
Curated Experiences
Finland Through the Franzettis' Eyes
The destinations and moments Yampu arranged for their Finland adventure.
Bear Blind on the Border
A night watching brown bears, wolverines, and wolves in their natural habitat on the Soviet frontier—the kind of experience only Yampu's network can arrange.
Winter War Museum
A short walk from their Kalevala Lodge, this historic site deepened their understanding of Finland's resilience and culture.
The Finnish Sauna
Where locals say 'A house without a sauna is not a home'—an essential cultural immersion at every hotel they stayed.
VIP Access to Hidden Destinations
Repeat Yampu travelers earn VIP status, unlocking access to destinations that exist beyond our website. Paul and Joe Franzetti discovered this after multiple journeys with us—their search for elusive pumas led them to meet Yampu's Cofounder Monica, and that connection opened doors to places like Finland's remote wilderness, where they hiked Pyhä-Luosto National Park and spent nights in bear blinds on the Soviet border. These hidden destinations aren't listed anywhere online. They're reserved for travelers who've proven they understand what Yampu offers: meticulous planning, local expertise, and experiences that can't be replicated elsewhere.
