THE ONLY FAMILY-FRIENDLY AURORA TOUR IN ROVANIEMI!
Based on our long experience, we have designed this family-friendly Northern Lights experience to offer all families an opportunity to chase the precious aurora borealis in a special tour adapted to their kids!
We will depart from Rovaniemi and drive in the most promising directions (based on a long analysis of the weather by your dedicated guide before the tour starts!). We will stop as many times as needed to regularly check the sky and discover more of Lapland landscapes.
At some point, we may decide to stop at one promising place and wait a bit longer. In this case, your guide will make a fire to warm you up and you will enjoy some Finnish snacks (veggie option possible). It is a good time for your guide to share all his passion and knowledge about the Northern Lights with you!
WEATHER ANALYSED : Before the tour, we analyse the latest weather maps, forecasts and charts to find the most promising spots and plan our Northern Lights trip. Even with a cloudy sky in Rovaniemi, there is still good chance to see some Northern lights if you know where to go. We will find the best places where we can observe the Arctic sky in the most promising directions. When making our plans, we will consider short driving distances, easy access, and a warm spot nearby to provide a safety place for your kids (warm minivan, a teepee, a good fireplace, etc.)
PHOTOS INCLUDED : Your guide will always be equipped with a professional camera, specifically designed for low-light photography. In our opinion, this is a must-have tool and we would never imagine chasing Northern Lights without a proper camera! And of course, family pictures are always nice to keep as a souvenir! All pictures that your guide takes during the tour will be sent to you by email in high quality!

ABOUT YOUR GUIDE : All our guides are experienced and have spent a lot of time exploring the immensity of Lapland, discovering new areas and chasing Northern Lights. They have a big passion for the Aurora Borealis and they are always excited to go chase them. And of course, they will always be very happy to share with you their knowledge and passion about nature here! When chasing Northern Lights, we work as a team. We analyse the weather predictions together and discuss about the best directions to explore. We collaborate to cover large areas, and always stay in communication to inform each other. This way, we increase our chance of observing the Northern lights with you!
ABOUT AURORAS : Please note that unfortunately we cannot guarantee to see auroras. No matter how hard we try, Northern Lights remain a natural phenomenon. To be successful, we then need a little bit of luck and help from Mother Nature. That’s what also makes the beauty of Northern Lights : they are unpredictable! But even if we are unlucky, this night adventure will be memorable!
CANCELLATION : While other companies in Rovaniemi will take you to see clouds (or even snowfalls!) knowing that you have zero chance to see auroras, our Northern Lights tour automatically includes a cancellation possibility.It allows you to cancel your ticket a few hours before the tour (up to 14:00 local time) and receive a refund of 80% of the price!
This is a great option if the weather is bad and you can't reschedule for another evening.
