Blissful evening with spectacular show of Aurora
Our guide took us to a cozy place in the early evening, with a great view over the lake. Here we saw the first signs of the Northern Lights after a while. After this we drove to a private place where the guide prepared tasty hot dog on the open fire. Along with traditional berry tea. And for dessert, marshmallows over the fire. At this place we saw a breathtaking show of Aurora. The guide answered all our questions and helped where necessary. We were very happy, when he dropped us off at the door at the end of the evening.

Cheating in hunting nothing.
A shit. They took us in
2 determined places. I didn't have any hunting. I mean. If it shows up in that place, okay. Unfortunately yours. Worse than I did today. I do not recommend.

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, not luck enough to see aurora due to the weather was full of clouds in the area. But its very beautiful if aurora shows there😊.
All the best to you.

Aurora Lights Tour
We booked the Aurora lights tour. Our guide Lea picked us from our hotel. She took us to 2 beautiful spots. We were lucky to get the Amazing view of the Auroras. What made our night more awesome was our Guide Lea who so thoughtfully brought a sledge for my child to play and marshmallows in addition to the tea & cookies.
Lea also clicked so many pics for us and was not in a hurry at all. She gave us enough timeto enjoy the view. Very friendly and extremely nice.
Thanks alot Lea!!
The tour was really worth it!!
