Guaranteed aurora hunting tour with unlimited distance/time
We set out with one goal – to see the auroras. We don’t end the night after few hours. We keep going as long as needed — usually 5–7 hours — and we drive as far as it takes to find clear skies.
Every night we make a plan according to the weather forecasts. If the best chances are on the other side of the border in Sweden or Norway, we drive there.

Aurora Tour FAQ
What time does the tour start and end?
Start time is usually 7–8pm.
End time is usually 01:00–4 am.
The end time depends on the auroras. If we see good auroras early in the evening, people are usually happy to finish earlier. If we have to drive far for a clear sky, the tour can take longer.
Do you provide winter clothing?
Yes, you can book it online if you need warm winter clothing.
What if the weather is too bad and the tour is cancelled?
Sometimes the weather is too cloudy in all northern Finland and Scandinavia area and we cancel the tour. The tour will be 100% refunded if weather is unfavorable, and is cancelled. Or we can reschedule the tour if possible.
Refund terms if I don’t see the auroras?
*The deal: If you see any auroras with the naked eye, we consider that you saw some auroras and you do not get a refund. The northern lights can be very faint on some nights when aurora activity is low. We cannot guarantee a bright light show; it happens only some nights.
How far do we drive during the tour?
Usually 10–40 minutes one way, and we usually stop at a few different spots. We choose the direction with the best weather and clear sky. If clear skies are further away, we can drive up to 4 hours one way.
Do we need to stay outside the whole time and do we need to walk much?
No, you do not need to stay outside the whole time. You can wait inside the warm car if you want. We go outside when the sky is clear to watch the Northern Lights. Usually we wait outdoors close to the van. Some places require walking for one or two minutes.
How can I pay for the northern lights tour?
You can book online now and pay with a credit card.
Information about Northern lights in Levi, Lapland - 8 tips to see auroras
1. Cloud forecast is the most important thing
Northern lights appear in Levi about 10 times a month. Some weeks with clear skies we see them almost every night, and sometimes a whole week is cloudy, and you have to drive in some direction from Levi to see them.
2. Don’t trust the Aurora forecast too much
Aurora forecasts for many days ahead are not accurate. We often see beautiful northern lights even when the forecast says “low activity.” The most important thing is a clear sky and some luck. Real-time satellite data can help during the aurora hunting tour.
3. You only see the northern lights if you try
Sometimes you can see them from your hotel, but usually, you need to go outside to a dark place and wait. Be ready for a long drive if the sky near Levi is cloudy.
4. Dark nights are the best time
Auroras look best when the sky is very dark. The smaller the moon, the better. Still, a full moon night can be a very good experience, especially when the aurora activity is high.
5. Visit between September and early April
That’s the northern lights season in Finnish Lapland when the nights are dark enough. You don’t see them during the midnight sun in summer. September, February, and March are often the best months — clearer skies and less cloud cover.
6. Don’t expect the same show every night
You never know what will really happen. Every night is different. Sometimes you only see a green line in the sky; other nights the whole sky moves with bright green color. The strongest moments can last only a few minutes — so stay ready.
7. Be patient
Some nights we have to wait for the northern lights to show up for hours. Auroras often appear in cycles: visible for some time, then fading away before returning. Waiting is part of the adventure.
8. You get good photos with your phone
Phones can take nice pictures for social media. But we use DSLR cameras for the photos we send you — the quality is better.
