Things to do in Tornio

We pick you up from Kemi and Haparanda-Tornio hotels/stations and drive 15-30 min to suitable Aurora station. We check the sky, moon, stars and Auroras when they occur. The professional guide will teach you the basics of Aurora hunting via apps in Northern regions. You get also insights to the history of Kemi and Sea Lapland region. Possibility for photoshootings. Past years 2021 - 2024 we have reached the level that over 90% of our Hunt and Chase groups catch the Auroras during their visit in Lapland. Our unique expertise is based on persistent research of the Auroras and the apps predicting the occurrence of Northern Lights in specific regions. We also finetune the starting times and even recommend our customers to cancel with full refund those Hunts and Chases when the chances are too low for catching the Greens. Please note that the Aurora Borealis / Northern Lights are natural phenomenon and therefore sighting cannot be guaranteed. We have over 20 Aurora stations and visual control over Sea Lapland so we can drive there where the open sky is available. Our main product is The Hunt where you scan the sky in one Aurora station. On The Chase we drive the Auroras even whole night if there is still chances of seeing them. We communicate on Hunts and Chases via WhatsApp. Ask availability. Happy Hunting!
