Step into a truly unique Northern Lights adventure that combines the charm of a budget-friendly experience with the expertise of a local guide. Join Sami Kauppinen, a third-generation Ivalo local, for an unforgettable night chasing the auroras in the pristine wilderness of Northern Lapland.
Your journey begins when Sami picks you up. We’ll drive as far as needed to escape light pollution and find the best possible spots for viewing the auroras based on real-time conditions. While Sami keeps an eye on aurora forecasts, he relies most on his own experience, sharp eyes, and gut feeling to maximize your chances of seeing the lights.
The tour starts between 8 to 10 PM (depending on the weather and your plans) and lasts until 2 AM, or until the auroras fade. Along the way, enjoy hot drinks and snacks to keep you warm and energized as you marvel at the Arctic night sky. Sami's expert local knowledge and warm storytelling will make this an extraordinary and intimate experience.
If the forecast suggests poor aurora activity or poor weather on the day of your tour, don’t worry — Sami will make the call and cancel the trip, ensuring you don’t waste time chasing what isn’t there. In that case, you’ll receive a full refund.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PRIVATE TOUR IS FOR MAX 4 PEOPLE!
