About this activity
Hunt for the Northern Lights from multiple prime viewing spots around Rovaniemi, guided by local Aurora experts who know where conditions are optimal. This intimate small-group adventure combines the raw Arctic landscape with cosy fireside traditions—hot drinks, Lappish sausage, and folklore—for a complete experience of Finnish winter magic.
Join us on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure to search for the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) in the Arctic sky. Guided by local experts familiar with the best viewing conditions, you’ll visit 2–3 carefully selected locations known for their wide horizons and low light pollution.
If conditions are favourable, the Aurora may appear overhead, creating a truly unforgettable natural display as it moves gently across the star-filled sky.
Around a warm campfire, you’ll hear stories about the Northern Lights, enjoy hot drinks, and taste traditional Lappish sausages grilled over the fire. Take in the quiet Arctic atmosphere, share the moment, and embrace the magic of the night.
This is more than just a tour — it is a peaceful Arctic experience that brings you closer to nature in one of the most remarkable settings on Earth.
Note: Pick-up times may vary depending on your location. Please check the confirmation email sent after your reservation for your exact pick-up details.

Insider tips
- ★Aurora activity peaks between September–March; winter months (December–February) offer longest dark hours, though any clear night can surprise
- ★Dress in full thermal layers even if you think you're warm—standing still in Arctic cold drains heat fast; waterproof boots and a wind-resistant outer layer are non-negotiable
- ★The guides will relocate if clouds roll in at your first spot, so flexibility and patience improve your odds significantly
- ★Photography tip: bring a tripod if you have one; the guides often know the best angles and can help you frame shots

- •Weather-dependent activity; Aurora visibility cannot be guaranteed, though guides maximise chances by scouting conditions in real-time
- •Warm clothing (thermal underwear, insulated jacket, hat, gloves, waterproof boots) is essential; ask about rental options when booking if you lack gear
