Highlights
This tour takes you away from artificial lights to a peaceful, open spot on the edge of a vast, frozen lake. With a wide horizon and clear views, this location offers an excellent chance to observe the northern sky, where—if you’re lucky—the Aurora Borealis may begin to dance above. While the Aurora Borealis is a natural phenomenon, our experienced guide will select the best viewing spot based on that night’s conditions to maximize your chances. During the evening, your guide will also share fascinating facts about the Aurora Borealis—how it forms, when it appears, and the science and legends behind this incredible display. Whether the sky stays calm or bursts into color, the atmosphere remains magical. As you wait, enjoy the warmth of a cozy campfire and sip a hot drink. Surrounded by crisp Arctic air and peaceful silence, you’ll find a rare sense of calm that invites a deep connection to nature.

About Rovaniemi
Rovaniemi, on the edge of the Arctic Circle in Finnish Lapland, is a river city known for Santa Claus Village, northern lights, reindeer and deep snow.
Rovaniemi is the capital of Finnish Lapland, set where the Kemijoki and Ounasjoki rivers join, just south of the Arctic Circle. The town was rebuilt after being burnt in the Second World War, and its street plan, drawn by the architect Alvar Aalto, is said to echo a reindeer's antlers. Arktikum, a museum and science centre, tells the story of life in the Arctic, and a lit footbridge known as the Lumberjack's Candle crosses the river.
