Your evening begins with a seamless private pickup in Rovaniemi, whisking you away to a hidden lakeside retreat deep within the Arctic forest. Here, far from any light pollution, you will unwind by a roaring campfire, enjoying the authentic flavors of traditional grilled sausages and homemade berry pie served with steaming local juice. After a quick change into professional thermal gear, the adrenaline kicks in as you take command of a snowmobile or ATV to navigate the frost-covered trails in search of the dancing Northern Lights.

SUV Transfer Your guide will pick you up in a comfortable SUV from any location in Rovaniemi: hotel, apartment, or train station. Relax in the warm vehicle as the city lights fade away, replaced by snowy landscapes.
Arrival at the Base Camp (Frozen Lake) We arrive at our secret spot deep in the forest, on the shore of a frozen lake. There are no city lights here—only absolute silence and dark skies, perfect for spotting the Aurora. Your guide lights a campfire to create a cozy atmosphere. Your guide grills delicious sausages for you. We serve hot berry juice and a sweet dessert. This is the time for cozy chats, photos, and watching the sky for any final flashes of the Aurora.
Gear Up & Safety Briefing Time for the active part! We provide you with professional thermal clothing and boots. The guide gives a short briefing on how to drive a snowmobile—it's easy, and even beginners can handle it.
Hunting the Lights by Snowmobile The most exciting part of the adventure! We head into the night forest on snowmobiles. Riding through the snow, we explore the area searching for the best view of the Northern Lights. Feel the wind, the thrill, and the vast starry sky above you.
Drop-off Back in Town Full and happy, we get back into the warm SUV. Your guide drives you back to your accommodation in Rovaniemi, wishing you a good night after a true Lapland adventure.

It snowed that day, and we set out knowing we couldn't see it. The guide showed us the forest in the snow, the hunter's hut, the footprints of the reindeer, and the stars in the sky were very bright and clear despite the snow. The pilot said it was also a peculiar phenomenon. After that we tasted hot blueberry juice and grilled sausage. Of course we'd love to see the aurora, but if we don't, enjoy the process, see the different landscapes, experience the moment and relax.
We booked on trip advisor but operator cancelled and contact is to make direct booking. And on the night , right in the beginning the driver told us the chance of see northern light is very low but they not advise or offer to change so we went ahead. We did not get to see any northern light. The next night we had a dinner in glass igloo with them booked too and there was supposed to have kids snow mobile included which they did not have ready that night. As we had a free day the next day they asked if we would like to book ice fishing with them too and the kids can have snow mobile the next day, so we did. They did not give any invoice, confirmation or agreement. The next day the driver was late for 20 mins and when we’re express displeasure he insisted that booking was for 10AM and not 9:30AM and chased us out of van. The staff promised that full refund will be provided within an hour but in the end the office only gave half and that was after 2 chaser and 6 hours later. When questioned they said they gave a lot of of BS excuse. Book with this company at your own risk.
We loved the place, the food we've eaten fantastic, including dessert. Although we haven't been lucky and haven't seen Auroras, too bad. Very friendly and nice driver.
