Northern Lights Tours: Frequently Asked Questions
Which Northern Lights Tour Should I Choose?
Choose the car tour if you mainly want an evening spent searching for the aurora. A snowmobile or snowshoe tour combines the search with an outdoor activity, while a reindeer sleigh ride, ice floating or a Lappish dinner offers a different way to enjoy the Arctic night.
Check the activity level, duration and age or height requirements before choosing your tour.
Are the Northern Lights Guaranteed?
No. Seeing the Northern Lights depends on auroral activity, cloud cover and darkness. Being away from city lights helps with viewing, but no location can guarantee a sighting.
Read your chosen tour’s description and booking terms for details of the programme and any weather-related changes.
When Can You See the Northern Lights in Rovaniemi?
The Northern Lights can be visible when the nights are dark enough, from late summer through winter and into spring. Clear skies and auroral activity are more important than the temperature.
Our snow-based experiences also depend on winter conditions. Check each tour’s booking calendar for available dates during your stay.
What Should I Wear on a Northern Lights Tour?
Dress in warm layers, with a hat, gloves and warm socks. Evenings outdoors can feel cold, especially when standing still to watch the sky.
Equipment varies by activity. Check your tour page to see which winter clothing or specialist equipment is included and what you should bring yourself.
Can Children Join Northern Lights Tours?
Participation requirements vary between tours. Consider your child’s age, their comfort in cold weather and how they usually manage late evenings outdoors.
Some activities have minimum age or height requirements. Check the individual tour details, and contact us if you would like help choosing an experience for your family.
What Should I Check Before Booking?
Review the total duration, meeting point, transfers and included equipment. Meals, drinks and other activities depend on the tour you choose.
If receiving photographs is important to you, check whether photography is included. You can also contact our team with questions before making your booking.
