Aurora in the tipi. - This trip was the highlight of our entire trip to Lapland. We were very lucky because the aurora borealis danced across the sky. The spot where the tipi is located is beautiful. Our guide was very helpful. I recommend this trip to everyone.

Incredible Aurora hunting experience - My gf and I went aurora hunting in guidance with Alex. Alex is such a professional in aurora hunting and shared many fun facts about Aurora and Finland. Alex first dropped us by a lake with Tipi and we saw aurora light there already. however the light was weak. Then Alex took us to a place with better sight on the light. and the pictures he has taken for us were absolutely gorgeous. We can’t believe we can see the aurora light in the first stay in Rovaniemi. Highly recommended!

An unforgettable family Aurora experience! - Victor's safe and friendly guide allowed us to have an unforgettable and enjoyable experience in Rovaniemi. Since my children are 8 and 10 years old, I wanted to go on a fun aurora hunting trip with the family, and this was the perfect trip! Victor explained the schedule and aurora forecast in detail from the time we departed, and upon arriving at Lake TIPI, he kindly told us about the area around the lake and the location of the aurora. The weather was so cold that my feet got cold, but the kids had a lot of fun eating warm firewood, tea (glogi), ginger cookies (piparkakku), and grilling sausages in the cottage. As soccer fanatics, we had an even more enjoyable time with our children who had recently traveled to Spain and were interested in their soccer talks :) Thanks to Victor's explanation, the two children were able to understand the principles of how aurora appears, and were thrilled and exclaimed when they saw the aurora in the form of a rainbow band. As time went by and it got colder, even when we were warming ourselves by the wood fire, Victor went outside every now and then to check the aurora situation and called us at important times. Thanks to this, we were able to see the beautiful, fantastic and ever-changing aurora several times. Thank you for being willing to take pictures of our family. (I was a little disappointed that I did not prepare a good camera ~) Thank you again to Victor for giving our family a precious Northern Lights experience and wonderful memories in Rovaniemi ~ (I am especially grateful for the warm and professional guide.) Next time, if I am lucky enough to come to Rovaniemi again, I would like to sign up for another experience at Nordic Adventure!!

Worth for money - It was very good. The view was breath taking. It was near by the lake and you can see all the stars. The tour guide was very nice and friendly.

Beautiful night talking around the fire - It was really nice to be able to see the northen lights next to a lake. A fantastic experience, very knowledgeable and friendly guides, it was also a pleasure that one of them were italian like me and my friend. So if you aren't so able with english ask for Edoardo.
