AURORA HUNT – REAL NORTHERN LIGHTS EXPERIENCE
IF YOU DONT SEE THE LIGHTS GET %100 MONEY BACK WITH NO QUESTION
Join Lapin Taivas for an authentic Northern Lights adventure! We can travel up to 300+ KM in our comfortable Mercedes Pegabus Vans, chasing clear skies or heading deep into the wilderness — this tour is made for true Aurora Hunters.
Our professional guides and photographers use the best weather data, cameras, and lenses to find the lights and capture unforgettable shots. All photos are delivered to your email within 8–72 hours after the tour.
Unlike standard tours, we follow no fixed route. We drive wherever the sky is clear, often 100+ KM away from city lights, to give you the best possible viewing conditions.
With an impressive 93% success rate during the 2024–25 season, this is one of the most reliable and exciting Aurora experiences in Lapland.

What To Expect
Rovaniemi
You will be taken on a northern lights hunt with a professional photographer in a spacious van. (Comfort is important for road trips, as we travel at least 50 km—but usually around 120 km one way—to find the darkest spot.) A delicious Finnish Sandwich and berry tea are on the menu for the night to satisfy your hunger. Since our priority is finding a clear spot for the northern lights, we don’t set up a barbecue for unnecessary sausages. Based heavily on cloud coverage and solar wind data, you may visit 2 to 3 different viewpoints from the 100 we have mapped, discovered all across Finnish and Swedish Lapland. Some say it’s a nice road trip; others call it a true northern lights hunt. Due to weather conditions, we always send an information email to our guests by 13:00 at the latest on the day of the tour. Sometimes, we may need to depart 1 hour earlier or later to find better weather. Our tours usually start between 18:30 and 19:00 and end around 01:00 to 03:00.

Mixed feelings

2.00I have mixed feelings with this agency. We did the experience on the geostorm in March. First they took us into a parking lot for a briefing and one of the guides was smoking in front of children. Then we took a 2 hr drive in which we apparently were lost several times. No one was telling us what was happening. I believe we found a spot by mere luck. The team, was very upbeat and excited to see the show the aurora was giving and the pictures were super good. On the way back, the truck had oil issues and we had to stop several times
Awesome

5.00It was an amazing experience! The tour was perfectly organized and Emin, our guide, was very friendly and informative. We were super lucky to see the Northern Lights so well and for such a long time. The ride to Inari and our stop at the lake was really worth it. It was also great to get same warm juice and sandwiches. Thanks for this fantastic experience!
Maravilloso

1.00THEY SCAMMED ME! I booked this tour, and on the same day they created a WhatsApp group to tell us that the northern lights hunt had been cancelled due to allegedly bad weather. They offered us the option to pay an extra €60 to switch to a small group in a van instead of a bus, because apparently a van could go farther than a bus. Some people did, while others didn’t because we couldn’t afford the extra cost. This happened about 3–4 hours before the tour was supposed to start, so I couldn’t book any other northern lights tour for that day, and I was leaving the day after. Since it wasn’t my fault that they couldn’t use the bus, they should have offered the small-group van option for free instead of being greedy and trying to charge us even more. After that they have been chasing me and sharashing me on whatsap. Also they dont want to give me a refund, Ive got a whatsapp message from them saying literally "No refund will be processed btw☺️" I understand that this depends on the weather, but if they can operate with vans instead of buses, they should accommodate the bus customers for free. It is not professional or serious to cancel the tour and leave customers without the experience, especially when they know that most of them are tourists on a tight schedule. So if you go to Rovaniemi, avoid this company. They are not serious, and you will just waste your time and money.
Not recommended!
