This is not a bus tour to a fixed location — it’s a real Northern Lights hunt where we actively search for clear skies, sometimes driving far north or even crossing into Sweden to find the best conditions. Many tours in Rovaniemi operate with large buses and fixed stops where guests simply wait and hope the sky clears. We operate small groups (max 8 guests) in a comfortable van, allowing us to stay mobile and react quickly to changing weather and cloud conditions. Our guides monitor forecasts and aurora activity in real time and adjust the route throughout the evening to find clearer skies. Some nights the lights appear close to Rovaniemi. On other nights we may drive far north or even cross the border into Sweden where conditions are better. Aurora Borealis can never be guaranteed, but real aurora hunting is about experience, mobility and making the right decisions to maximize your chances.

Frozen Waterfalls of Korouoma Canyon tour with Pro Photos & BBQ

Had such a fun day at the...

Had such a fun day at the Frozen Waterfalls of Korouoma Canyon! ❄️ Our guide Sarah was awesome—super organized, made sure we were all geared up for the cold, and kept things safe while still relaxed. The walk was beautiful, with plenty of stops for photos (she took some amazing shots too!). Ended the trip with a cozy BBQ—sausages and marshmallows by the fire hit the spot. Definitely a highlight of Finland.

Full Day Tour Visiting Coptic and Islamic Cairo

Great day out experience the cultural and spiritual places of the old city in Coptic Cairo.

I throughly enjoyed it and it’s definitely a must do if you want to know more about the holy sites in the city

Family Snowmobile Safari in Rovaniemi in small group

Renee_c, Feb 2026

Best day ever

Our snowmobile experience today was amazing, one of the best things I've ever done in my life! Our guide Nacho was so passionate, professional and helpful. His instructions were clear and we felt confident once we started. Our seven year old son was transported in a heated pod by Nacho which was awesome for him. He got to stay toasty warm and still enjoy the same experience we did. I would highly recommend Snowride Lapland to anyone looking for an awesome day out.

Rovaniemi: Drive New 2025 Snowmobiles on Arctic Safari

Joanne_L, Feb 2026

Great snowmobiling experience

The snowmobiling is quite a drive outside of Rovaniemi. When we booked the experience, it said maximum 8 guests but there were close to 50 people on the coach!! When we arrived, we were split into smaller groups of appx. 12 people which was okay. We had a wonderful guide (French lady) who explained everything very clearly. She was careful but let us go fast when it was safe. My daughter had quite a bad nosebleed (not because of the trip!) and the guide was so kind and helped me look after her. Despite my initial reservations, this is a fantastic trip. The scenery is stunning, the snowmobiles are great fun, and the sausages were rather tasty afterwards!

A great hike...

A wonderful hike with amazing views of the frozen waterfalls! Our guide Andrew was excellent throughout. He picked us promptly at the designated time, briefed us well on all the logistics, and told us interesting facts about Finland and the area. He even went out of his way to arrange vegetarian lunch for my partner. Highly recommend!

A dream!

I highly recommend this experience. They were kind and helpful when I contacted customer service for information about the shuttle. It was very convenient because it was included in the price. The staff was kind and helpful; the guy who was there before the changing rooms/showers was really good at explaining everything to us. We used the sauna and jacuzzi surrounded by snow and snow-covered trees! It was truly a dream I'll remember for the rest of my life! Thank you! Highly recommended!

Colleen_B, Feb 2026

Great tour

We had a great time on this tour and were even lucky enough to catch a quick glimpse of the Auroras. It’s a long night, so prepare yourself for that, we didn’t get back until 4:30am, but the motor coach was very comfortable and it had a bathroom. The tour guides were very friendly and did a great job finding the Auroras. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Arctic Circle Snowmobile Safari for Beginners in Rovaniemi

viator, Dec 2025

Great experience for family of beginners...

Great experience for me and my family. Time and distance for the ride was just the right amount for a beginner like me. Guides were helpful and winter equipment was provided. Can probably do without the insurance for beginners as you will rarely be driving that fast...

Ice Fishing Tour

raag_v, Apr 2025

Excellent tour with an excellent guide

We loved this tour! While we did not catch any fish (which is common), we had a wonderful experience being on a frozen lake, manually drilling holes in the ice, and trying to fish with a tiny rod! The included campfire, sausage and hot drink were a bonus! Our guide Matu made the tour very educational and entertaining by sharing his experiences and information about the region.
