This small-group tour lasts about four hours and takes place in the wilderness surrounding Rovaniemi. Groups are limited to eight participants to reduce light pollution and provide more personalized attention from the guide. The guide, who also serves as the driver, will take the group by private vehicle to locations with better chances to see the Aurora Borealis. Warm clothing is provided to keep guests comfortable in cold conditions. During the tour, tea, coffee, and snacks are available. Professional photographs of the Northern Lights will be taken and sent to participants the next day. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included for accommodations outside the city center. All taxes, fees, and handling charges are covered in the price.
After being picked up and properly dressed with professional winter clothing and boots (if needed), your Aurora expert guide will drive you away from Rovaniemi, straight out to the wilderness. Based on the weather forecasts, the solar activity and our experience, we will select some locations that are more promising to see the Northern Lights. Your guide will also always check the weather conditions, and you may decide to try another location if you are willing to. As this excursion is a 4-hour tour, you may get the chance to visit up to 3 locations. This tour will offer you the opportunity to head into the Lapland wilderness and explore the arctic nature, hopefully with Northern Lights dancing over your heads! Your guide will share with you their knowledge about the forest, nature and wildlife, and the northern lights phenomenon. They will also teach you how to build a fire in the traditional way, using elements from your surroundings, and will serve you some hot beverages and Finnish snacks to warm you up. They will also be equipped with a professional camera and take many pictures of you and the Northern Lights (a link to download them will be sent to you the next day).
