This Northern Lights tour in Levi is designed for travelers who want more than a typical bus tour — a small-group Arctic experience focused on finding the auroras. Hosted by Arctic Midnight Group, a local company in Finnish Lapland, this experience is built around maximizing your chances. Our guides track real-time weather forecasts and solar activity, and travel to the best locations each night instead of staying in one place. Small groups mean a more personal and relaxed experience. Enjoy warm drinks, local snacks, and the quiet of Lapland while waiting for the Northern Lights. Your guide will also take high-quality DSLR photos of you under the auroras, so you can fully enjoy the moment and receive professional images after the tour. While the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon and can never be guaranteed, our local knowledge and flexible approach give you the best possible chance to see them.

This is for you who wants to maximise the chances to see the Northern Lights – and minimise the need for luck! The main goal is simple: to see and photograph the Northern Lights with you in the picture, using our professional cameras and years of photography know-how. We drive as far as needed, even across the border to Sweden if that’s where the lights are. Total tour duration is between 4 to 6 hours, depending on the conditions of the night. We’ve explored countless locations around Lapland. Our team monitors live aurora data 24/7, satellite cloud maps, and weather models throughout the day. Once we confirm the conditions are good enough, we move. And when we move, we commit fully: we drive as far as needed - sometimes 50 km, sometimes 200+ km - to find clear skies an seeing the lights. We go where the Northern Lights are – and we take you with us!
