Chase the Northern Lights with Lapland’s first and most experienced aurora hunting operator with over a decade of experience! Step into the Arctic night on an unforgettable journey through the snow-covered wilderness of Finnish Lapland. This small-group Northern Lights tour from Rovaniemi is designed for those seeking more than a glimpse of the aurora—it's crafted for those ready to join a real chase, led by the most experienced team in the region.
Recognized as Lapland’s first and pioneering aurora hunting and photography operator, this expert-led experience has set the benchmark for professional Northern Lights adventures in Lapland. Planning for each evening's tour begins early in the morning, as the team analyses weather systems, solar activity, and local forecasts to craft the optimal route long before departure.
With access to over 20 exclusive private locations, participants are taken far from the crowds and light pollution to the clearest skies available. The evening begins with a group briefing covering the destination, aurora activity, and local weather outlook. From there, the journey continues in a comfortable minivan, heading to the most promising location based on real-time updates and years of local knowledge.
Throughout the night, your guide, a seasoned aurora hunter and professional photographer, accompanies the group, helping guests prepare their camera equipment and offering expert guidance on photographing the aurora. For those without a camera, professional images are taken and shared, allowing everyone to stay present and fully enjoy the moment.
Typically, one to three locations are visited during the tour, each selected based on live forecasting and photographic potential. If optimal conditions are found 100 kilometers away, the team will make the journey—true to the spirit of authentic aurora hunting.
