The 15 Best Northern Lights Tours in Rovaniemi

93 tours

Rovaniemi’s own streetlights wash the sky out, so the aurora trips that work are the ones willing to drive: an hour toward Ranua, two toward the Swedish border, wherever the cloud map is thinnest that night. These 15 do exactly that. Each entry says how far the vehicle roams, how long you stay out, whether hot drinks and a fire are included, and which ones repeat the trip free if the sky stays shut.

“A fellow tourist (while visiting China) advised me to join a tour that went hunting for the northern lights and I had heard of people who went to Finland and did not see the northern lights.

Although the sky was clear that night, we could not see the northern lights at Rovaniemi, but our tour guide/driver George drove about 1 hour out to a forested area which was a great spot, and we saw the northern lights! George delivered where it was important - picked us up on time, was alert and drove…”

“A bit chaotic at the office before I set off. I was amazed at the number of people on the tour. I was on coach 7 which was a 55 seater and it was completely full. We eventually found the Northern Lights after about 2 hours driving north with the driver going down country lanes to the side of a river which meant he had to reverse about 1 kilometre to get back to the main road. The hot drinks were given out on the coach before we left to come back. Overall, we saw the lights which was the object so cannot complain too much. Juan and SK, the…”
