Fantastic 5.0
Paul took great care of us – providing warm drinks, snacks. He helped everyone with taking professional pictures with his camera (I got some amazing shots on my phone as well!), and his enthusiasm kept spirits high all night. If you’re heading out to hunt the aurora, book a tour with Paul – he’s dedicated, knowledgeable, and goes the extra mile to make sure you see the lights. Highly recommend! 10/10 would do again.

Highly recommend to book this tour if first time going to Finland. For a short stay in Rovaniemi, this tour covers the essentials. Negative points: (1) The only downside is that there is no time to rest and have a meal as the queue for the ride is long so last batch needed to rush after finishing the ride and (2) the departure time is same for many tours so we wasted time in changing the clothes due to many people going by tour at same time

this was a great experience! we were skeptical due to the clouds but they managed to find a spot where we saw the aurora straight away! followed by a warm fire and snacks! the tour guides were both lovely and helped us take good photos!

Punctual at 10.30am. We finished the whole tour within ~2h inclusive of travel. We got to feed the reindeers, take the sleigh ride, and were given some snacks after. Overall, pleasant experience and smooth-flow with this company. Also, Santa Claus Village is just nearby. I would definitely recommend!

It was a wonderful day for a hike, made even more magical by the falling snow. Learnt so much from our guide, who shared fascinating insights about the surrounding nature. Tasting fresh berries and even trying “old man’s beard” was such a fun and unique experience. We’re especially grateful to our guide for being so patient, always waiting for us and helping us navigate the slippery parts of the trail. Overall, it was an unforgettable and enriching adventure!
