Join this family-friendly adventure in Rovaniemi for an unforgettable experience chasing the magical Northern Lights in the heart of Lapland. We ensure you’re dressed in warm winter gear, as temperatures can drop to -30°C. Then, we head out of Rovaniemi to chase the Northern Lights. As we travel deeper into the Lapland wilderness, the views of the snowy forests become more enchanting, setting the stage for our first stop at a private location, renowned for its clear skies offering the best chance to witness the Northern Lights.
Our excursion takes you to a secluded spot where the beauty of the Lapland wilderness envelops you. Here, we pause to warm up by a campfire inside a cozy tipi. You can enjoy delicious grilled sausages, hot drinks, and sweets while your guide keeps an eye on the sky for any sign of the Northern Lights. This interlude not only offers warmth but also a unique opportunity to bond with fellow adventurers.
Throughout the tour, the small group size of a maximum of 8 people ensures a personalized experience, far from the chaos of mass tourism. Bring your camera along, and if you need a tripod, we can help you! This tour is all about family fun, making it perfect for everyone, young and old.
