4.Northern Lights Wilderness Small-Group Tour from Rovaniemi

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 290 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $155

Leave Rovaniemi with an Aurora guide and up to seven other people, then chase clear skies at as many as three wilderness locations. You’ll learn about Lapland and the Northern Lights, build a traditional fire, enjoy hot drinks and Finnish snacks, and receive guide-taken photos the next day.

“The most important thing to remember is that there can never be a guarantee that the Northern Lights will 'perform'. So much depends upon weather conditions as well as solar activity. There was a very modest amount of Northern Light activity during our excursion but we still enjoyed the trip out into the snow-covered landscape, the welcome snack over a crackling fire and the assistance and commentary of our very knowledgeable guide.”
