Once booked, the entire private sauna, shower room, dressing room, and lounge are reserved exclusively for your group — no other bookings during your stay.

Use the private lounge, with a dining table, fridge, and microwave, to relax, eat, or simply unwind.

The sauna comes with ecological shampoo and conditioner, an authentic Lapland sauna scent, fresh towels, and cold sparkling water.

On-site luggage storage means you can drop your bags and settle in before hotel check-in, or spend your last hours in Rovaniemi relaxing after checkout.

Private pickup in Tromsø. Your night starts with a private pickup from your accommodation, straight into your own modern, heated 4x4 minivan with your personal guide — who is also your dedicated photographer.

Live Aurora tracking. Through the night, a back-office team combines satellite forecasts, weather models and live field reports to find where the sky is clearest. If conditions change, you move too — sometimes across the border — until the Aurora appears.

Arctic scenery above Tromsø. Surrounded by fjords, mountains and islands, Tromsø sits above the Arctic Circle and is one of the world's best-known places to see the Northern Lights. With unlimited mileage and flexible routes, and just your own group in the vehicle, the search can range wherever the skies are clearest, at your own pace.

Under the Aurora. When the lights appear, you'll stand beneath the Arctic night sky while your guide captures the moment in professional DSLR photos, just for you, delivered securely online after the tour. Hot drinks, light snacks and thermal overalls keep you warm, even down to –40°C.

As long as it takes. Most tours last 3–4 hours; this one typically runs 6–10 hours with unlimited time and mileage, so the chase continues until the Aurora is found.

The Magic of Snowmobiling in Lapland
