DESCRIPTION
PREMIUM AURORA EXPERIENCE
Treat yourself and your loved ones with the best aurora hunting experience you can imagine. This private Northern Lights tour is organised by an aurora expert guide who will do everything possible to find the auroras for you. The tour has been designed to offer all the best features for a successful aurora hunt!
The tour lasts up to 6 hours, which allows to drive very far (up to 300km around Rovaniemi) to find clear sky and observe the auroras. Driving far might be the only way to find northern lights, especially when the weather is challenging in Rovaniemi. By staying out for a longer time, you also get the opportunity to see more in the sky and will not miss any Northern lights if they appear late in the night!
The tour is private, allowing for an intimate experience adapted to your needs and requests. A specific start time will be suggested, based on our analysis of the weather and conditions (a brief report will be send to you in the morning to inform you about our analysis of the conditions) but it can also be adapted to your timetable. During the experience, you may always decide together with your guide if you would like to change locations to experience something else or stay longer at the specific place because you enjoy it. You are also free to decide to return home at any time when you feel fully satisfied. Basically, this is YOUR experience.
PHOTOS INCLUDED
Your guide will always be equipped with a professional camera, specifically designed for low-light photography. This is a must-have tool when chasing Northern Lights! It helps anticipate the evolution of the sky and therefore allow us to make the best decisions! And of course, pictures are always nice to keep as a souvenir! All pictures taken during the tour will be sent to you by email in high quality!
OPTION FOR A SALMON SOUP
A standard Finnish snack (Finnish sausages with hot drinks) is included in the program. However, you may be willing to live a more special experience and opt for a delicious homemade salmon soup served directly around the open fire in the middle of nowhere (and hopefully under the northern lights!). The price for an extra salmon soup is 18€ / person and it also includes local hot drinks and sweet snacks.
ABOUT AURORAS
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee to see the Northern Lights. No matter how hard we try, no matter of the decisions we take or the distances we drive, sometimes we also need a bit of luck. Northern Lights are an unpredictable phenomenon, and despite our long experience, there is unfortunately nothing we can do if Mother Nature decides not to offer us auroras… This is also the beauty about the Northern lights and we all have to accept it. But even if we are unlucky, the adventure will be worth it!
*BAD WEATHER?
CANCEL THE TOUR!
While other companies in Rovaniemi will take you to see clouds (or even snowfalls!) knowing that you have zero chance to see auroras, our Northern Lights tour automatically includes a cancellation possibility. It allows you to cancel your Northern Lights tour a few hours before (until 14.00, local time).
We usually do not take the decision to cancel the tour unless the weather is really bad and unsafe. Instead, we would happily reschedule if we still have availability. Why? Because most of our guests have travelled very far, and are usually willing to take their chance: even with a challenging weather, we may find Northern Lights… We also believe that the hunting experience in the beautiful dark cold nights of Lapland is anyway worth the try and efforts!
But we also understand that you might prefer to cancel at the last moment if the weather turns out to be bad, and this is why we have included this cancellation possibility in our tour.
By allowing you to cancel a few hours before, we offer you the possibility to join the aurora tour only when the conditions are good enough. In the morning we send you our weather & solar conditions report, that will help you take your decision to go, reschedule or cancel. It will also be possible to change for another night adventure if you don’t want to waste your evening.
