I have no word to explain. We were able to explore the wilderness of lapland and to add on top we able to see the the northern lights at its best. Highly recommend this tour

Just a great experience! We didn’t see the
northen light but the sky was clear and we saw more than 30 shooting stars.
Our two guides N and V did everything to service us with sausages, mashmallows, pastery, hot juice and hot chocolate and of course great company☺️

We had such a great time on this wilderness camp. So much so, that when the Aurora was a no-show we didn’t even mind! The Lappish wilderness at night was enough of an adventure and our guides, Yasmin and Noah were great. We especially want to thank Yasmin who we connected with immediately because she is so genuine and connected to nature. We highly recommend this excursion if you love the outdoors and new experiences!

It was an amazing experience. While we were fortunate enough to see the Northern Lights with great clearness, our guide was also fantastic. Vera really made the experience enjoyable; would definitely recommend!

A lovely evening passed under the stars and unfortunately some clouds. We didn’t get to see much of the Aurora but we got a brief glimpse. Edvard was very knowledgable and friendly, and his helper (sorry forgot his name 🙈) was funny and engaging. We went to a wide open space away from the road and light pollution, and had a lovely bbq and hot drinks. We were made very comfortable and welcome, and we’re even treated to a little song. Great company!

Fantastic trip. The guides are so friendly especially Liticia who serve us lots of hotdog. They also taken care us very well with warm thermal clothes with fire in the middle of forest. Enjoying aurora spots so well.

We could not see the lights because it was very cloudy. The place was very nice but without the lights, there was not much to do.

Me and my girlfriend really enjoyed this trip and were very lucky to see the northern lights in one of the clearest nights for a while according to the tour guide. One disappointment was the food, if you are expecting a traditional lappish picnic...its not but then again this tour is more for the northern lights as appose to the food. Worth the money overall.

The tour was really very good, both guides Laura and Timmo were absolutely professional and paid much attention to every participant. That was very interesting experience both for adults and children 11 and 6 yrs. Of course, it depends on children, if they are not afraid of dark forest, and they like to seat by fireplace and listen to the legends and stories. What I would recommend for children, just to have more fun - to give them headlamp and make them guess the steps in the snow :

Rien ne garantit que l'on puisse voir des aurores boréales . Cependant le cadre est magnifique et le guide fort sympathique.

Abbiamo scelto di partecipare a questa escursione praticamente all'ultimo momento; abbiamo prenotato il pomeriggio per la sera stessa ed abbiamo trovato posto! Siamo stati molto fortunati: appena raggiunto il posto per il picnic l'aurora già era presente ed è durata per quasi più di un'ora! Ma aldilà di ciò è stata una serata molto bella ed amichevole in compagnia delle nostre giovani guide e degli altri partecipanti! Menzione speciale va a Natalia, una delle nostre guide, sempre sorridente e gentile, con cui abbiamo avuto l'occasione di parlare sedute intorno al fuoco! Tour consigliatissimo a prescindere dalla presenza dell'aurora boreale!
