Great tour through the night in Lapland - Johanna and Niilo were great hosts who had really thought of everything. From warm jackets, firewood and sausages (also vegan) to ice barbecues. There was nothing missing. We saw the aurora lights once for quite a long time, which was really great. Johanna even had a camera with her and took great photos of us. Otherwise, unfortunately, we weren't very lucky with the weather but that didn't matter as we then headed out into the wilderness and Niilo made a warm fire. We sat cosily around the fire on a frozen lake and roasted sausages + drank homemade berry juice and learnt a lot about Lapland and the region. A really great experience. Johanna and Niilo are two great and nice people from the Ivalo region and know their way around. I can highly recommend this tour to everyone.

We were lucky to have a very friendly guide and the Aurora was very active! - It was an extremely valuable experience to see the aurora on a large scale, covering the entire sky. The forecast said that we might not be able to expect much. So early in the tour, the guide told us each time she found even if it was small-scale. The guide moved the minivan to a location where the surroundings were darker and it was easier to see the aurora, which allowed us to fully enjoy the Aurora as they became more active. It was also interesting that she served us blueberry juice and chocolate drinks and told us stories of local life.

Great experience! - Amazing tour organised by lovely people. The tour operator was very kind and communication went smoothly. We were lucky enough to see the aurora lights and the tour hosts were very helpful in making pictures and making stops along the way. 5/5 recommend!

Beautiful, authentic experience - We went as a family of four (2 adults, 2 children aged 13 and 11). We were lucky to have the experience on our own so we never felt rushed and could decide on when we moved on. Effort was taken to find the lights and we were fortunate enough to see them. Transport was on time, clean and comfortable. At the end we were taken to warm up, eat toasted sausages and drink warm drinks all surrounded by beautiful reindeer. It was a lovely evening and we would thoroughly recommend it.

Lovely authentic experience - We were a family of four (2 adults, 2 children aged 13 and 11). We didn’t feel rushed and could make decisions about when we wanted to move on. Effort was taken to find the lights - they were stunning and we felt very lucky to have seen them. Transport was comfortable. We were taken to warm up at the end and eat toasted sausages and warm drinks surrounded by reindeer. It was a lovely evening and we would thoroughly recommend it. There was the offer of photos being taken as the host’s camera was better than our own.

Best out of four tours we took to see the Northern Lights. Highly recommend!! - Our Northern Lights tour with Johanna was such a dream! We loved every second of our night. To start, Johanna was incredibly kind and accommodating via text prior to the start of our tour. On the scheduled day for the tour it was expected to be cloudy (blame Mother Nature) and she texted me offering to go a different day or to still try to see the lights on the original day. We rescheduled for two days later and are so thankful we did! Johanna took us to several different perfect secluded spots to see the Northern Lights, she has an incredible eye for where to stop to catch the beautiful aurora. She gave us some of her homemade warm fruit juice (MUCH better than the similar juices we received on other tours), made a fire, shared stores about life in Ivalo/Finland, and just overall we had great conversation. I went on four different Northern Lights tours between Norway and Finland, and our experience with Johanna/Aurora Hunting was by far the best. I strongly recommend you book with them for your trip to Ivalo!

An Unforgettable Northern Lights Tour - The tour organized by Johanna and the guide was fantastic! The convenience of the hotel pick-up and their knowledge of the most intimate and strategic spots to view the Northern Lights made the experience incredibly satisfying. Additionally, we really appreciated the open fire with the offer of reindeer sausages and homemade strawberry juice. Trust them for an amazing tour experience!

AMAZING ! - Johanna and her husband are the sweetest couple ! They were so flexible, nice, honnest people. They tried desperately to find auroras for me. I was enchanted by their quick availability and professionally lovely responses to me. I felt soooo safe as a female solo traveller with them at night in the middle for nowhere. They are locals & the husband is a Sami ! How cool is that ? It was one of my best experience to chat with them. I can only but recommend them ! + it is always better to support local businesses when travelling ! <3
