Additional Information & Description

The Northern Lights Rovaniemi wilderness tour takes you into Finland’s Arctic landscape with an expert Aurora guide. Over four hours, the focus is on seeking out the lights beyond the city and exploring the natural surroundings along the way. The tour runs in a small group, with a maximum of eight guests.

A route shaped around aurora viewing

The journey may include up to three locations, chosen by the guide for their promising Northern Lights viewing potential. Rather than centring the whole outing on a single stop, the tour can take you to several places in the Rovaniemi wilderness. The number of locations is flexible; three stops are a possibility, not a fixed itinerary.

Learn about the Arctic surroundings

Your guide shares knowledge about nature, wildlife and the Northern Lights throughout the journey. Live guiding is in English, giving you explanations of the landscape you are exploring as well as the aurora you have come to see. This adds a nature-focused dimension to the outing beyond watching the sky.

Traditional fire-building and Finnish refreshments

The wilderness visit also introduces traditional fire-building using materials from the surrounding environment. It is a practical element of the tour, alongside the guide’s explanations of Arctic nature. Finnish campfire snacks and hot drinks are included, adding a warm refreshment break to the four-hour excursion.

Photography handled by your guide

The professional Aurora guide brings a camera to photograph the group and the Northern Lights. You do not need to take on all the photography yourself: pictures taken by the guide are sent to you the next day. The photography service is part of the tour, rather than a separate addition.

Professional winter clothing and boots are provided. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included for accommodation outside Rovaniemi’s city centre, and all taxes, fees and handling charges are covered. Arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled start. Tickets are delivered instantly, and smartphone tickets are accepted.
