Northern lights in Rovaniemi - Definitely an amazing experience! Our guide, Tiina was so kind and patient( thanks again💖) ! She told stories while the tour and took us to different nice spots to know better the area and of course see the northern lights 😀 The fire fox appeared in the sky and we could admire the beauty of that dance.

Awe inspiring auroras! - It was an amazing experience, absolutely splendid to see the lights dance across the sky. The guides were very helpful and friendly. They took us to a location with very little light pollution where we had a clear, cloudless view of the sky. Thank you safartica for the superb experience!

Great overall Experience! Were able to capture the Auroras! - The tour was really good. We were able to spot the aurora at the 2 locations the guide took us. The guide was good and took us to great viewing spots, as well as captured good photos. Overall happy with the experience and will recommend to take the tour at least once when in Lapland!

Not the best experience - Went on 26th December. Female staff rude told me to get out of way while I was taking photos so she could photograph other people with her camera. Would suggest staff have a torch light to help people to viewing points as could be dangerous, as I sunk knee high in snow at one point. Tour ended up taking g 6 hours arrived back 2am so be prepared if you have something booked early next morning

Nothing recommended! Un 0 - Too bad! We are told that the tour is in Spanish and is entirely in English and Italian. We saw nothing. We snowed out and yet they took you around looking for auroras when they knew you weren't going to see anything. A waste of time and money. The guides have no idea about the auroras. On a bus going around.

A waste of time and money… - SAVE YOUR MONEY… The most unprofessional tour I have ever taken. The only reason I gave it 1 star was to write this review. We took the Aurora Hunting Photo Tour on Sunday 5/1/25. A complete shambles, no direction from the guides, unprofessional and dismissive of my concerns about what was happening when we were left to our own devices on a frozen river. The conditions for The Northern Lights were not ideal, no issues with mother nature. The lack of direction and professionalism from the 2 guides was very disappointing. Will never recommend this company. Save your money and just go for a walk and look at the sky, you may not see The Northern Lights or if you’re lucky you may. But you will save yourself 200 Euros.

Total scam! No photos because nothing to see just giving us the run around! - It was a total scam! Was asked to put overall outfit when not necessary.. waste of time (almost an hour to do that!) then put on boots that’s not even as good as our own for grip! Went around for about an hour…. Not even trying… just drive around! Then stopped for cookies and chocolate.. 😵‍💫! I googled map… we were only 15 minutes from our own hotel! We were so upset, we asked to take us back right away! One lady fell because of those horrible boots, hit the back of her head badly! She was throwing up!! The tour leader too busy looking for tissues when not needed anymore! The other one busy with the cookies! We went with another company the next night. No need overall, not boots! It was a serious looking for aurora 8 hrs and went to 3 spots of aurora sightings… for almost the same price!! I understand that aurora is all about weather permitted! But that was a total scam just to get our money!
