We had a wonderful night and saw the beautiful northern lights from the start without any trouble. Our guide Paul was very kind and helpful and even gave us tasty Glögi to warm up. We would highly recommend this excursion to anyone. Professional photos were taken and we were the only couple for the night so it was very private and personal. We enjoyed every minute of it.

We had a wonderful experience. Tirthankar was incredibly knowledgeable and explained everything in a clear, engaging way, answering all our questions with enthusiasm and care. He was thoughtful, accommodating, and made the experience both educational and enjoyable. We felt well looked after from start to finish and would 100% recommend booking with him.

Paul was a friendly and great tour guide. Although we weren’t able to see the aurora borealis due to weather conditions, he still made the experience enjoyable by taking us to a beautiful river, where we did a short hike and took some lovely photos. He was very honest about the likelihood of seeing the lights and let us decide whether we wanted to continue the tour, which we really appreciated. Paul is very knowledgeable about Rovaniemi and the surrounding towns in Finland. Even without the aurora, we learned a lot and had a wonderful time. We would definitely recommend Paul’s services!

Great experience chasing the auroras. We went out on a cloudy night and our guide worked hard to get us to clear skies so we could see the lights!

Guide was great. We went out on a cloudy night and he worked hard and drove a long distance to find clear skies so that we were able to see the auroras. He was very dialed into where to go and when the lights would be visible.
