Rovaniemi Insider: Northern lights trip for families
Description
Join us for a magical family-friendly Northern Lights viewing experience like no other! Set off on an unforgettable adventure, where you’ll have the chance to marvel at the auroras in a unique, child-centered setting on a frozen lake. The journey begins with a short, scenic drive to a picturesque location, where we minimize travel time to ensure a relaxed experience. Warm up in cozy huts with heated spaces and toilets, so you can focus on the beauty of the Northern Lights without the chill. As an added bonus, there’s a chance to see majestic reindeer in their natural habitat. To keep the little ones entertained, we’ve included a thrilling sledding hill and classic kicksleds, making it easy for everyone to enjoy the great outdoors before the night sky lights up. We’ve also planned an earlier start and finish time to help young ones stick to their bedtime while still making the most of the adventure.

Our experience with the insider team was wonderful. We booked the Northern lights tour, though from New Zealand Rebecca new best spots to see the lights. She took some amazing photos and was very patient while we posed for hundreds of photos. The entire team was very welcoming and helpful. thanks for making our trip memorable Jonas, Laura and the entire team.
Thank you so much for the nice review! I will tell your regards to Becca. :) Hope to see you again in Rovaniemi. :) Warm regards, Eppu / Rovaniemi Insider
They promised a warm cottage and a heated bathroom and hence suitable for travellers at all age...DONT BELIEVE IN THIS! The cottage was just a hut with malfunction heater and the toilet was quite a distance away with slippery forest in between. I regretted bringing my 71 year old mother and a 2 year old infant on this trip. Both of them were super miserable . The guides were not even the locals as they advertised; rather visitors all over the world who seek for jobs while travelling. Not to mention they were 30 min late and we were left in -7 degree waiting for them at the hotel bus stop as instructed, and again left at their office car park due to miscommunication. Luckily, the rest of our activities here at Roviniemi are not booked with this company
