You'll travel through snow-covered forests, beside frozen lakes, and up hills in search of those dancing ribbons of green, pink, and purple light that make the Arctic sky come alive.

Good to Know

The hunt typically lasts around 8 hours, depending on weather conditions and aurora activity. You'll meet at the agency to collect thermal gear if needed, then head out into the Lapland wilderness. Your guides are professional photographers who will capture high-quality images and videos of both you and any aurora displays.

Dress warmly in layers underneath the provided thermal gear, and wear comfortable winter footwear. Bring a valid photo ID as the tour may cross international borders into Sweden or Norway to reach the best viewing spots. The experience is not wheelchair accessible due to the wilderness locations and winter conditions.

While aurora sightings can never be guaranteed due to natural conditions, your guides will share fascinating insights about the lights and Arctic culture throughout the evening. If you're planning to explore more of Lapland's winter activities, consider pairing this with a traditional reindeer farm experience or take a husky sledding adventure to make the most of your time in Finnish Lapland.
