Perfect tour - Thanks to Asko and Jesse for the unforgettable experience. The tour was perfectly organized. We were picked up right at the property. Asko gave us lots of information about Lapland and the Northern Lights. We were on time at the viewpoint to admire the Northern Lights. Additional highlights were the BBQ in the Kota, the snowmobile sleigh ride and the reindeer. Winter overalls were provided to us. The tour I can only recommend.

Absolutely recommendable - Absolutely recommendable! We did an Aurora Hunting Tour with Matti on February 23rd and he really gave everything to find her. Since it was totally cloudy in Rovaniemi, drove up the very far on the Swedish border and were able to find the aurora borealis. Thanks again Matti and thank you for the great photos you took.

Great experience even with a slight sighting of the Northern Lights - This was mainly a Northern Lights tour but as the weather wasn't cooperating, it became more of a focus on the winter experience. We had an amazing time with our guide, feeding the reindeer, sledding with a snow mobile, eating the snacks and the entire experience. Our guide offered for us to wait and see if the Northern Lights would appear and they did as we were leaving.

Aurora Boreale. - We did the aurora hunting and, thanks to our guide Matti, we had a breathtaking vision. In the beginning the probability of seeing the aurora was high, but then the sky becomed cloudy… Matti didn’t gave up and he brought us until sweden, where we saw the aurora. Thank matti we higly reccommend you.

It was beautiful! - It was beautiful! Our guide Lattif was very kind and prepared. He took us to beautiful places and did not give up even when there seemed to be no hope left. As a last stop we stopped on a frozen lake and a few minutes at midnight we saw it! It was super exciting. Lattif made us some very nice pictures that he sent us the next day. Despite there were -29 large outside, in the van we were very good and were offered a hot drink and cookies. I ended my trip very well!

Nice experience - For us really positive experience, they gave us suits to put over ski suits, wool socks gloves and balaclavas. They took us to a snowy field with a very nice hut with a fire where they cooked sausage and canapés, here is not to expect dinner (we had dinner before for safety and we had done well) then we fed the reindeer and we took a ride on a sleigh pulled by a snowmobile, just arrived and while we were doing the sleigh ride appeared the Northern Lights that made it all even more magical, the price is maybe a bit expensive, we paid 135 euros per head, but as it all went I would say it was worth it, I would recommend it.

Poor - Avoid this, or simply observe the clouds. Indeed, you will go hunting despite the bad weather. You'll fall behind, and the organization will be chaotic. We could have chosen another area where the skies were clear and the weather was mild, but they preferred to head to the places they knew. For them, the goal was primarily financial. Look closely at the pictures, it's always the same view at each spot. And that didn't seem to bother the guide. We stayed under the clouds and under the snow, without moving, for several minutes. The sky would never have cleared. You only had to look at the weather to find out. In the end, nobody wanted to leave the bus.
