Rovaniemi: Small-Group Northern Lights Wilderness Tour

1.Small-Group Northern Lights Wilderness Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 1,515 reviews · 4 hours · from $136Our pick

Chase the Northern Lights from Rovaniemi with a small group, campfire cooking, warm gear, up to three stops, and free professional photos.

“It was an amazing night and we saw the lights the whole night! Our tour guide Jeremy was great and flexible, pivoting quickly to find spots to view the lights, everywhere! He was also super friendly and accommodating to my kids even though the tour we chose is not the “family friendly version” one, since we wanted to focus on being able to view the lights! He specially prepared a toy companion for them, marshmallows for them for the campfire, and even going above and beyond and sending us all the way back to our resort! Great experience and highly recommend!”

Review of Rovaniemi’s small-group Northern Lights hunt, with long-distance chasing, Finnish snacks, photos, hotel pickup, and a weather refund.

“The experience with the company didn’t start with the right foot because I sent several messages that came unanswered about pick up and drop off details . I was able to manage and once the tour started, we were advised that the conditions may or may not allow us to see the aurora. Unfortunately we were not able to see the lights ( and that is not the fault of the company , so no complains there) my complains come with the follow up after the tour. The main guide ( Berk I believe) said that he would have offered us a next day tour but that given the conditions,…”

Review of Rovaniemi’s small-group Northern Lights photography tour, with warm gear, aurora chasing, campfire snacks, photos, and practical booking advice.

“Spontaneously booked this night tour on the morning due to the guide being so great. Started at 8pm meeting point where rucksack was given with hot drinks, head torches & other essentials for the evening. Clothing was given to those who needed it as it’s a cold evening ahead. Then it’s a drive out to first viewing point. Juhani was great at telling us how to set out camera settings correctly to get best photos & also explained exactly what the Auroras are and conditions needed to see them. We travelled on to next location a frozen lake where we set up and was very fortunate enough to see the…”

Chase the Northern Lights from Rovaniemi with a small group, remote viewpoints, fire-cooked Finnish snacks, warm gear, and guide photos.

“The guide and tour size was perfect. The onky draw back is we didn't see northern lights. When we left the area we were in there was another group there would have liked to stay longer to see if we could see lights. Some tours say guaranteed sighting so not sure if I'd book a longer tour next time to ensure sighting. The tour guide was lovely and accommodating and if I had seeing the lights I would give the tour 100%.”

Float in an icy Rovaniemi lake under the Northern Lights, wrapped in a thermal suit, with a campfire, hot drinks, and hotel pickup.

“It was super exciting to float in the lake, looking at the sky at night time, to stand up and walk under water feeling like the moon landing. All super well managed by Mattia and the team. We had a great chat after the activity, while we enjoyed a hot drink and some ginger biscuits and learnt about the Finnish culture, the people, their ways and his experience in the country. Great experience!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The small group setting made this snowmobile tour feel personal and adventurous. The guides were professional, friendly, and ensured everyone felt safe throughout the ride. We explored the stunning snowy landscapes of the wilderness—endless white trails, frozen lakes, and pine-covered hills. The experience was thrilling but also peaceful, with plenty of moments to stop, take in the scenery, and snap some photos. The equipment was top-notch and well maintained. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking to explore the true beauty of Lapland away from the crowds. An unforgettable Arctic experience!”
