Saariselka, Finland

5 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Enjoy an unforgettable private Northern Lights hunting experience in the vast, open fell region of Lapland, where remote locations, treeless landscapes, and wide horizons create excellent conditions for aurora searching away from artificial lights.

Designed exclusively for small private groups, this flexible experience allows your guide to adapt the route each evening, heading toward areas with the most promising aurora forecast and clear skies to maximize viewing opportunities. While the Aurora Borealis is a natural phenomenon and sightings can never be guaranteed, the carefully selected locations offer excellent chances when conditions are favorable.

Along the journey, your professional guide shares fascinating insights into the science, stories, and traditions of the Arctic night sky. High-quality photos are included throughout the experience — with or without the Northern Lights — ensuring meaningful memories from your Arctic adventure.

    Join the Aurora Experts on our legendary Northern Lights trip to reach the best places and see this great natural arctic phenomenon. The guide shares information about the Northern Lights and the old mythology around them. Listen to the stories about local life and nature by living fire. Experience some Lappish shamanism and see your future with our great Aurora guides! Make pictures by the hints from the Aurora guide. The visibility of Northern lights depends for example on the weather and activity of the Sun, but this trip is to offer you the best chance to see the lights on the best possible location in Ivalo – Saariselka area. We take it seriously Our sites are absolute dark far from the village lights and hotels. This is important because most of the lights are relatively faint so in absolute darkness you will see much more. The longer you stay the more you see. This is why our tour is relatively long. The best hour to see the lights is just before the midnight but the best lights may appear whenever. On the way to the site we stop the car even several times if needed and follow the lights. During this tour we also spend nice time in a tepee on the best possible site for following the sky and barbeque for all tastes and diets. We will also advice you in taking pictures and we will make pictures ourselves which we share with you from our cloud service. We follow the daily weather forecast
