Amazing experience - Alex is a great guide, couldn't recommend enough! Honest and very open to explain and try to find the best spots to see the Aurora. When searching, I was looking for someone that didn't realy just want to exploit tourists trying to get the money when there is zero chance to see the lights and also just sit in a spot without hunting the lights. Alex's tour is the opposite. Keep in mind that Aurora is unpredictable, you may have all the chances, great sun activity but still not being able to see it. But at least find a professional open to try their best to give you the opportunity to see it. I booked last minute because my other tour was canceled and Alex was very flexible. We got lucky to see the lights after three or four cloudy days in town, but he was also very honest about the probabilities for that night. - He does pick up in the central area - Small group (in our car we were in four people only) - Hot juice and barbecue were a nice courtesy, I wasn't even expecting! - Also he took some pictures of us (and sent it the next morning without extra cost) which is also something I didn't expect. So yeah, if you get the chance, do it. Even if you don't see the lights, at least you will have the feeling that it was worth trying. Thanks! FYI: Tour date: 29/01/24

Amazing Aurora hunt - We had a really good time hunting the Aurora Borealis together with Alex. We had a nice barbecue, got warmed up by the fire, and actually got to experience the lights !! It was incredible, and throughout the experience the atmosphere was jolly and fun. Thank you for an amazing time !

Northen lights night - We were picked up at our hotel and taken to different locations to see the northern lights. December is not the best month as the weather can be quite unpredictable. Luckily we were able to catch a glimpse of this natural wonder followed by a much needed barbeque. The pictures came for free :)

Magical night - I had an extraordinary Aurora Hunt today in Rovaniemi, guided by Alex. His impeccable plan and timing ensured a mesmerizing experience witnessing the Northern Lights. Words can't capture the magic. Special thanks to Alex for orchestrating a delightful BBQ with marshmallows and hot tea afterward.

Best Aurora tour in Finland - By far the best Aurora hunting experience we went on. Alexi was amazing. Found the lights with no trouble and he took amazing pics for us. Do not book with another tour (only this one) or you will regret it.

Bland and uneventful - Although there are no guarantees to see the lights this wasn’t the problem with the excursion. The tour guides could have provided a lot more energy and enthusiasm about the trip. There was very little dialogue from them and it seemed the whole night was a chore. At least enjoy the company of those you are taking out

Adverse weather conditions - We booked this activity to see the auroras, however, they put us in a minivan without prior information to travel a lot of kilometers, surprisingly south, and although we went to several places due to the clouds we could not see anything. The guides, knowing the weather conditions, knew very well that the probability was zero or very low and yet they continue carrying out the activity and how they have it scheduled, so we feel deceived in this aspect.
