I’m still processing everything I experienced in Finland… what an absolutely magical trip! I joined a tour to see the Northern Lights and, thanks to our guide Luca, we got to live one of those moments that stay with you forever. He truly did everything he could to make it possible — changed routes, guided us with patience and enthusiasm, and always brought that energy of someone who genuinely loves what they do. Seeing the auroras like this, with someone so dedicated by our side, made the whole experience even more special. A 5‑star adventure that I’d repeat without a second thought. Thank you, Luca.

We were very happy with our experience, our guide Artur spared no effort to find the Aurora, and we did see it! It was a really nice atmosphere for such a long car trip - we went all the way to Sweden. They were very helpful and efficient throughout the whole process (including the rescheduling for weather reasons), and we would absolutely book again with them.

Fantastic organization, you can see that the guys know what they are doing, in our case to avoid the clouds they took us all the way to Sweden, then moving us to a new spot after the first one had become crowded. Our guide made himself available to take all the photos we wanted and gave us explanations about the aurora also answering the various questions. He offered us hot juice and biscuits and returning we stopped near Rovaniemi because the sky had cleared giving us the opportunity to admire the aurora again and take more pictures. Very quick even in the delivery of the same, they arrived the next day along with some time-lapse videos. Really recommended, obviously as in our case good forecast for the aurora permitting. Thank you very much for allowing us to live this unforgettable experience!

Fantastic Northern Lights tour in Lapland! Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and determined to make sure we saw the lights. We even drove into Sweden to find clear skies, and it was worth it. He didn’t give up until we saw them and also took some great photos. Highly recommend!

Mirco was a great guide, with a lot of knowledge about the Aurora and photography! We went out on a cloudy night, so we had to drive pretty far north and west into Sweden, but Mirco set realistic expectations from the start: we’d have to be out for awhile to find any clear skies. The first stop we found with clear skies, there was no Aurora activity, and clouds came in quickly. But Mirco pivoted quickly, and we found another spot within 20 minutes. Once there, activity began within 10 minutes, and it was beautiful! It was wonderful to experience seeing the northern lights with the naked eye, and we also got some great photos thanks to Mirco. Activity died down after about 15 minutes, and we had been out for about 5 hours at that point so we started heading back. But we lucked out, and Mirco noticed another clear stretch with some activity while we were all falling asleep. We got out and saw an even wider arch of activity, but for a shorter time (more great photos). All in all, we were out for about 11 hours, but it was well worth it! Guides can’t control the weather, but they’ll do everything in their power to watch weather and aurora activity models to give you the best chance to see something special - and they succeeded for our group!

Fantastic experience. Mirco was a phenomenal guide — super knowledgeable about the Aurora and excited to give us the best possible experience. We went out on a really cloudy night and weren’t confident that we’d find the lights. But Mirco drove us all the way to Sweden and eventually we had some luck with clear skies and saw vibrant lights visible to the naked eye. It was a longer tour since we had to drive further (about 4.5 hours outside of Rovaniemi) and wait out the clouds — we left at 6pm and didn’t return home until 5:15 the following morning. Make sure to bring lots of water and snacks and an adventure mindset, as this tour is super focused on finding the lights and making changes to your driving direction depending on conditions. We only stopped once for a real gas station bathroom break with the opportunity to buy snacks. Otherwise we were mostly in the car, with 3 stops to get out and wait for/view the lights. There was hot juice and some cookies at our longest northern lights viewing stop, but otherwise relied on our own supplies. Mirco took great photos of everyone and of the lights and shared with us quickly the following morning. Highly recommend
