Itinerary

Rovaniemi
480 min

You will be taken on a northern lights hunt with a professional photographer in a spacious van. (Comfort is important for road trips, as we travel at least 50 km—but usually around 120 km one way—to find the darkest spot.) A delicious Finnish Sandwich and berry tea are on the menu for the night to satisfy your hunger. Since our priority is finding a clear spot for the northern lights, we don’t set up a barbecue for unnecessary sausages. Based heavily on cloud coverage and solar wind data, you may visit 2 to 3 different viewpoints from the 100 we have mapped, discovered all across Finnish and Swedish Lapland. Some say it’s a nice road trip; others call it a true northern lights hunt. Due to weather conditions, we always send an information email to our guests by 13:00 at the latest on the day of the tour. Sometimes, we may need to depart 1 hour earlier or later to find better weather. Our tours usually start between 18:30 and 19:00 and end around 01:00 to 03:00.

An Unforgettable Northern Lights Experience with an Excellent Guide Team ✨

We had a wonderful experience with our guides on Sept 23, 2026. Gorkem was friendly, enthusiastic and always attentive to our needs. Muhammet Emin, our head guide, was extremely experienced and professional, and acted like a true expert throughout the experience. A great team that made our Northern Lights adventure truly special! ✨💚 Vincenzo & Ambra

Good experience

The tour fully lived up to my expectations. What impressed me the most was the passion and dedication of our guide, Emin, whose enthusiasm made the experience even more engaging and memorable. Another great advantage was the small group size of only six people, which allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in this magical experience and enjoy every moment in a more personal and authentic way. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a well-organized and unforgettable experience.

Best experience with Emin

One word: passion. That’s what Emin, our guide, conveys during the tour. It was my first time hunting northern lights: I recommemd Emin since it takes the time to explain how this amazing natural phenomenon takes place and because he knows the right spots to see the perfect aurora. Be patient and something mesmerizing will happen, this tour deserves every second. Emin has been the most available and kind person in the world during our tour. If you’re looking for a great experience, you’re in the right place.

Wonderful

It was a wonderful trip with an excellent guide. Despite the bad weather, he drove for four hours to Sweden to show us the Northern Lights, and finally we reached those magnificent lights. Thank you for everything ☺️

Amazing Northern Lights Tour

We hit the road on a night where many other tours said it was impossible to see the northern lights. Our guide Emin took us to Northern Sweden to dodge the clouds and this is what happened. Forever grateful. I definitely recommend these amazing guys 🫶🏻

Amazing

The weather was cloudy the day we went on the tour, but despite that, our tour guide took us from Rovaniemi all the way to the Russian border (we actually saw the border) just in case we might be able to see it. And finally, we saw some spectacular views. The guide's explanations and attentiveness were excellent; he took all the photos we wanted and even brought us tea, thank you very much. We were on the road from 8:30 in the evening until 4 in the morning; the car was very comfortable, and there were blankets. If you're thinking of going, I definitely recommend it.

Unforgettable Night - Amazing Aurora & Wonderful Guide!

We had the most incredible Northern Lights tour! The aurora was visible pretty much the entire night, and we could clearly see the vibrant green curtains dancing across the sky with our naked eyes. Our guide, Emin, was absolutely fantastic. He took so many great photos of us and even recorded some wonderful videos to capture the memories. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rovaniemi!

We would choose them again, we were satisfied.

I was very pleased. We felt more comfortable because he spoke Turkish. He honestly informed us. The writing was excellent. The hot tea and cake served on this cold day were wonderful :) I especially recommend it to those coming from Türkiye. We would choose it again; we were satisfied with the price-performance ratio.

An experience that we will never forget

Hello! Our experience with Lapin Taivas was great. We didn't expect to see any aurora because the day was cloudy and it had been raining. Miraculously at night the sky cleared and we could see several incredible auroras. The group was very small and we had a great time. We could see the lights next to a lake in the middle of a forest, it was beautiful. The guide was very friendly, explained everything very well and took us back to the hotel giving us red fruit juice and buns. Thank you for everything and a big hug!
