Very well organized. Took us to a spot where there were hardly any other tourists. Turned out to be an excellent location as we saw a wonderful display of the Northern Lights. Our guide kept us entertained and enriched us with information about the lights, scientific details, camera knowledge and many more. Highly recommend this tour.

we saw the northern lights, even if they were fragile. Our guide, Mirko, did everything possible to find a clear sky. Unfortunately, solar activity was weak. Anyway, the goal was achieved. Thank you for this! On the other hand, when we returned, we didn't understand why we had to listen to the Ukrainian anthem on the loudspeakers, very loudly. I understand the empathy with these people, but I don't think that forcing things like this helps. Finally, I recommend this trip!

Amazing experience!! Weather was really bad, had really thick snow and the clouds were very low but the tour guides knew exactly where to go to see the lights- Finland. We drove to Finland with not much hope and to our surprise we had a fantastic view of the lights! Best night ever.
