Perfect from start to finish! The guide takes great care of the guests, the hotel pick-up service makes transportation much easier and the guide is extremely willing to talk and discuss all topics. I must point out that I learned a lot about Finland! It was an unforgettable experience, I was able to be with someone who is an expert in what he does and knows where to take people to watch the aurora. The barbecue is very good and you can try some Finnish cuisine, such as cookies, a drink and a cheese tart. Another highlight is that the guide has a professional camera and took several photos of everyone, always willing to take as many as the group wanted and making sure people looked to see if they liked the photo and if they wanted more. The attention to detail made all the difference, the fact that it was a small group was also essential and shows how much you value the tour. I felt welcomed and very happy to have chosen you, thank you very much!!

The tour was very much organized. Aleks, the tour guide brought us to two locations to spot the northern lights. We finally saw the northern lights on the second spot which I think was a 30mins away from the City Center. We had a good fireplace and ate bbq with their traditional finnish bread along with a hot finnish drink which was so tasty. It’s a must try! It was such a memorable experience especially it was our first time to witness the Aurora Borealis. I highly recommend booking this Aurora Hunt!!

Everything was perfect, even if I had a different idea about the northern lights , I was very excited. Mehmet was our driver and guide, he is a special person, passionate about what he’s doing and together with the team he works with, they did everything what was possible to see the northern lights . He is very friendly and a very good photographer. I highly recommend them

Super fun. Although we couldnt go fast, we could enjoy the view+ drive for quite a long time! I highly recommend it

the experience itself was very pleasant, except that the sled ride took very short time.
