Highlights

Welcome to the Aurora Chasing & Deep Sky Telescope View Experience — the first tour in Lapland to combine Northern Lights Chasing with live Telescope Astrophotography. Max 8 guests, one van, hosted personally by the owner. This is real aurora hunting, not a bus to a fixed campfire. No pre-selected routes — every night is planned fresh from live cloud maps and solar data, and we drive wherever the sky is clearest: across Lapland, into Sweden, or further if the forecast promises a show. And while we watch for the aurora, the second hunt begins. Our smart telescope Repo— locks onto galaxies, nebulae and planets in real time. You choose the target: Saturn's rings, the Andromeda Galaxy, the Orion Nebula. You can watch it live, or scan a QR code and follow the view on your own phone. Repo will ride in the van with us and its powerful enough to photograph galaxies meanwhile we keep looking for aurora.

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.

Top-ranked sights in Rovaniemi: Arktikum, Santa Claus Office.
