Ting å gjøre i Rovaniemi

Det var flott, personalet, Jiji og de andre, var veldig høflige, informative og hjelpsomme. Utstyret var i god stand og rent også. Kjøreturen varte i 1 time, og vi nøt den veldig.

Ilari is our excellent, friendly and patient guide. He is very familiar with the animals in Ranua zoo. He is also very willing to share lives and history of Finland, letting us know more the life of Finnish! We highly recommend this trip organised by Lake Hit Safaris (email is info@lakehutsafaris.com).

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.

Det var så fantastisk å jakte på nordlyset i Finland igjen! Nordlyset over innsjøen var så vakkert. Vi var heldige med været i dag, selv om det var iskaldt. Denne nordlysjakten var absolutt verdt det, og det var kjempebra med bålmat også! 👍

unfortunate for me not able to see the northern lights on this trip. very disappointed. however, kudos to my two guides who were trying very hard to try catch one but to no avail.

En helt uforglemmelig opplevelse. Å stå på det frosne havet og flyte i sjøen er noe alle burde prøve en gang. Mannskapet på Arktis var fantastisk.

Booked an aurora tour for 1026 HKD (Klook). Didn't catch the aurora, but caught the moonlight. Meeting point was at 20:00 in Rovaniemi city center. I have to say, the cold-weather gear they provided was really amazing!! We changed clothes upon arrival, and shoes were also provided. Then we waited for the other tour members to arrive before getting on the bus together. The ride was about 50-60 minutes to an outdoor campsite. The guides would start a fire first to make sure everyone wouldn't get cold outside. Then a group of people gathered in the tent to eat reindeer sausage, drink hot blueberry juice, and roast marshmallows. Everyone chatted while waiting for the aurora to appear. You could also go out and take pictures. There was a professional photographer in the group. After waiting for an hour, the guide said that the probability of seeing the aurora today was low. Everyone could also have the photographer take some pictures to leave some memories. We departed around 20:15, arrived at the campsite at 21:20, and left at 23:00. Then they took us to two other campsites to wait briefly, without getting off the bus, while the guide checked for auroras. There were no auroras at either location. We ran to a total of three spots. Finally, we returned to the city center around 00:45. The whole process was quite fun. Gathering around a campfire with people from different places and having a barbecue was also a special experience.

While the price is a little high, it's a fantastic experience! The staff on board are friendly and courteous, and they do their best to assist customers! In addition to trying on the lobster suit, the staff also gave us a tour of the ship's facilities and helped us understand how the whole ship works, which was very cool! A big thank you to our Nepalese service staff, who were very helpful!
