Levi Northern Lights Experience
Description
This Northern Lights tour in Levi is designed for travelers who want more than a typical bus tour — a small-group Arctic experience focused on finding the auroras. Hosted by Arctic Midnight Group, a local company in Finnish Lapland, this experience is built around maximizing your chances. Our guides track real-time weather forecasts and solar activity, and travel to the best locations each night instead of staying in one place. Small groups mean a more personal and relaxed experience. Enjoy warm drinks, local snacks, and the quiet of Lapland while waiting for the Northern Lights. Your guide will also take high-quality DSLR photos of you under the auroras, so you can fully enjoy the moment and receive professional images after the tour. While the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon and can never be guaranteed, our local knowledge and flexible approach give you the best possible chance to see them.

Fully recommended. I was in contact with the guide, Toni, for weeks before my arrival and he made the booking as easy as possible. He indicated the differences between the different experiences they have on their website and recommended the best days for each one. Even once already in Levi, I was in contact with him by mail every day and he was telling me what day and what time was best to go to see the auroras according to the forecasts of that same day, with the flexibility of being able to go at the best time regardless of the day or time that I had booked. In addition, luck accompanied and you could see some of the best lights in weeks.
¡Gracias, Manuel! Fue un placer mostrarles lo mejor de la “magia de Laponia” 🙂 Un saludo, Toni
Great tour with MP which was customisable. She was super knowledgeable and skilled at finding the northern lights. Added bonus was the hot drinks and sweet treats! Would recommend for anyone looking to explore this region! Tony helped book this for us last minute - super clear communication!
Thank you so much for your kind words! Great to hear you had an amazing tour with MP – she’s truly excellent at what she does. Glad you enjoyed the hot drinks and treats as well! Happy I could help with the last-minute booking and make everything smooth. Hope to see you again in Lapland!
It was absolutely amazing, Toni was a great host. He knew all the right places, in fact we did see it at one spot regardless he went beyond to bring us to other beautiful spots where we saw more of the magical lights! From booking to coordinating it was a seamless process, really recommend him!
Thank you so much! Really happy you enjoyed the experience and that we found some great spots for the Northern Lights. Glad everything went smoothly from start to finish. Hope to see you again in Lapland!
Toni was great! He took it very seriously to find us the best spots for the northern lights and it did not disappoint. We had three great spots one that was exceptionally better than others. We were gone a total of about four hours, and it was very chilly so dress warm and bring water. If I ever had the opportunity to use this company or Toni again I definitely would!
Thank you so much, Lindsay! It was a pleasure having you with us. The Northern Lights were truly amazing that night! Hopefully we’ll see you again sometime 😊
Tim was great! Very competent and dedicated. Thanks to the German language, we could ask him anything. Unforgettable and highly recommended!
Super, dass es euch so gut gefallen hat! Vielleicht bis zum nächsten Mal!
amazing! guide was so attentive and kind and worked hard to allow us to see the northern lights. lakeside cabins were quaint and warm and served sausages and warm glogi over campfire. 6 stars if I could!
It was a pleasure having you with us — chasing the lights, warming up by the fire and enjoying the lakeside atmosphere is exactly what it’s all about. Hope to see you again for a 7-star night next time!
2nd night, 2nd try...and the Auroras cooperated and showed up. Our same guide as the night before (when we saw nada, and got ice cold soda's at the end 😂) took us to many places where we viewed a great light show. The hut in the Forrest that we stopped at was a wonderful experience too! (Wish we had stopped here the night before as well when we saw NOTHING... it would have softened the disappointment!) Tracy, our hostess at the hut, was cooking sausages and had warm glogi for us~ much appreciated in the sub-zero temps! A great evening and we still got those ice cold Finnish soda's at the end when we were dropped off😉😂 Moral is~ you never know if it will be a night of lights or a dud... so best to book MULTIPLE excursions and try as much as you can!
Hello Tony, Thank you for giving it a second shot with us! 😊 That’s the Northern Lights for you — sometimes they play hide and seek, but when they finally come out the show is worth the wait. We’re glad the second night delivered and that you got to enjoy the hut with sausages and warm glögi. And yes… the ice-cold Finnish sodas at the end are our way of keeping guests properly acclimatized to Lapland temperatures! 😉 Thanks again for joining the adventure. Best regards, Toni Arctic Midnight Group
If it's cloudy and you havent canceled 24 hrs before~ you're stuck 😞 That was our experience this night. Our driver was nice~ but not sure why the company can't be upfront and at least offer you a partial for canceling when it's obviously not aurora cond's. We basically drove for sev hours in the dark and didn't stop for anything. The online portion said stacks and a warm drink... nothing. When we got dropped off at the end, he handed us cold Finnish soda's 😂😂😂 it would have been nice to at least have been offered some Glogi and snacks.
Hello Tony, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Our Northern Lights tours are designed with one main priority: giving our guests the best possible chance to see the auroras. Because the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, finding clear skies can sometimes require driving long distances and adjusting the route during the evening. On nights when the conditions require us to travel further in search of clearer skies, we may unfortunately not have enough time to visit our wilderness hut. The hut is located about 25 km in a different direction, and reaching it is only possible when the aurora conditions allow us to stay closer to that area. When the Northern Lights cooperate and appear in the nearby areas, our usual plan includes visiting several viewing spots and stopping at the hut where we serve sausages and warm glögi by the fire. However, preparing food and drinks is only possible at specific locations and cannot safely be arranged just anywhere in the winter wilderness. As you mentioned, the Northern Lights are unpredictable, and sometimes finding them can be very challenging. If the weather is clearly impossible — for example heavy snowfall or completely overcast skies — we do offer our guests the option to reschedule the tour or receive a refund. We truly appreciate your feedback and will continue working to make every experience as enjoyable as possible, even on the more difficult aurora nights. Kind regards, Toni Arctic Midnight Group
WOW , just fantastic. Tim our guide did the best possible to experience us magical moments. Can recommend this tour to anyone. Northern lights are a whim of nature but with the tour you are close
