What To Expect

If you want to go Northern Lights hunting but don't want to get round up with dozens of tourist, our private hut experience is a perfect choice for you. We specialize in small tours only. That way everyone will have our full attention and a chance to get a personalized experience. We’ll pick you up from your hotel with our comfortable van. To escape the city buzz and experience the true beauty of Finland, we’ll drive to the Arctic lake. We want to show you the thrill of Northern Lights hunting. Locals here are used to Aurora Borealis, but they never take it for granted. In order to see the lights dance in the sky, you need to have good timing and just be lucky enough. Nature is unpredictable, but it's the thrill of a chase that we go for. In addition, we wanted to immerse you in a traditional Lappish experience and take you on an Arctic lake in our authentic Lappish Tipi, to enjoy juicy sausages and hot drinks.

5.00This trip was the highlight of our entire trip to Lapland. We were very lucky because the aurora borealis danced across the sky. The spot where the tipi is located is beautiful. Our guide was very helpful. I recommend this trip to everyone.

5.00My gf and I went aurora hunting in guidance with Alex. Alex is such a professional in aurora hunting and shared many fun facts about Aurora and Finland. Alex first dropped us by a lake with Tipi and we saw aurora light there already. however the light was weak. Then Alex took us to a place with better sight on the light. and the pictures he has taken for us were absolutely gorgeous. We can’t believe we can see the aurora light in the first stay in Rovaniemi. Highly recommended!
An unforgettable family Aurora experience!

5.00Victor's safe and friendly guide allowed us to have an unforgettable and enjoyable experience in Rovaniemi. Since my children are 8 and 10 years old, I wanted to go on a fun aurora hunting trip with the family, and this was the perfect trip! Victor explained the schedule and aurora forecast in detail from the time we departed, and upon arriving at Lake TIPI, he kindly told us about the area around the lake and the location of the aurora. The weather was so cold that my feet got cold, but the kids had a lot of fun eating warm firewood, tea (glogi), ginger cookies (piparkakku), and grilling sausages in the cottage. As soccer fanatics, we had an even more enjoyable time with our children who had recently traveled to Spain and were interested in their soccer talks :) Thanks to Victor's explanation, the two children were able to understand the principles of how aurora appears, and were thrilled and exclaimed when they saw the aurora in the form of a rainbow band. As time went by and it got colder, even when we were warming ourselves by the wood fire, Victor went outside every now and then to check the aurora situation and called us at important times. Thanks to this, we were able to see the beautiful, fantastic and ever-changing aurora several times. Thank you for being willing to take pictures of our family. (I was a little disappointed that I did not prepare a good camera ~) Thank you again to Victor for giving our family a precious Northern Lights experience and wonderful memories in Rovaniemi ~ (I am especially grateful for the warm and professional guide.) Next time, if I am lucky enough to come to Rovaniemi again, I would like to sign up for another experience at Nordic Adventure!!
Brilliant Aurora Expert Tour guide.
