It is ideal for those staying in Rovaniemi for several nights who wish to maximize their chances of experiencing the Aurora Borealis.
Your adventure begins with a convenient hotel pick-up in Rovaniemi each evening you choose to participate in an Aurora hunting tour. Tours are operated by experienced Northern Lights guides.

The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, and unfortunately, their appearance can never be guaranteed. Our guides do everything possible to maximize your chances, including checking forecasts, choosing the best locations, and sharing their expertise about the Aurora.
However, the cost of the tour covers much more than just the chance to see the lights - it includes professional guiding, transportation, hot drinks, campfire experiences, storytelling, and the unique atmosphere of being in the Arctic wilderness at night. For this reason, refunds are not provided if the Northern Lights do not appear.
We truly appreciate your understanding and hope the overall experience will still be a magical and memorable part of your Lapland adventure.
Our professional Northern Lights guides employ a flexible strategy to maximize your viewing chances. They constantly monitor real-time weather forecasts, cloud cover, and Aurora activity levels. Based on this data, they will lead the tour to the best possible viewing locations each night, venturing away from city lights to remote, dark spots like frozen lakesides, forest clearings, or hilltops around the Rovaniemi region.
Please be on time! Our tours follow a strict schedule, and if you miss the hotel pick-up, you will not be able to join later. Arriving separately by taxi or private car is usually not possible, as it may disrupt the program and group safety. Plan ahead — we appreciate your understanding.
The best season to witness the Northern Lights in Rovaniemi, Finnish Lapland, is typically during the dark months, from late August/early September until early April. Within this period, the longer nights and colder, clearer weather often provide optimal conditions for observing the Aurora Borealis.
Proper clothing is crucial for comfort and safety in Arctic conditions. Participants are responsible for bringing their own suitable outerwear. We highly recommend dressing in multiple warm layers, including thermal underwear (a must), a mid-layer such as fleece or wool, warm socks (preferably two pairs), insulated winter trousers and jacket, a warm hat, scarf or neck gaiter, and thick mittens or gloves. Footwear should be winter-rated and insulated to keep your feet warm in the snow.
We also recommend bringing heat pads or hand/foot warmers - they can make a big difference in extreme cold.
During the tour, your guide will light a cozy campfire and serve hot drinks to help you stay warm and comfortable while waiting for the Aurora. On very cold nights, the vehicle will always be kept nearby so you can warm up inside whenever needed.
