Aurora borealis
Cosmopolitan730138, October 2026
Wow! It was Amazing!!! First of all, Atte and Sara were Super friendly and provided all the details of what the hunt entails. Sara gave the historical talk of the how Arora borealis activity formed. They took us to a place near a lake (google map showed). As we pulled in to the area, we can see the Aurora band showed and it got intense. Started with one, then two, then three, then it just exploded in the sky, of course better seen with your camera. As the Aurora weakened and we got colder, Atte and Sara brought out the warm cider and cookies (native to Finland). Yummy!!! What an amazing experience and the best way to end my trip. Thank you Atte and Sara!!!

Breathtakingly brilliant!
charlottebJ4450JC, October 2026
This was one of the MOST amazing experiences of my life! Absolutely breathtaking. Sara and Atte were EXCELLENT guides. They explained what we would see, the science behind the Aurora, camera settings and practical info for when we arrived at the site. They took pictures of everyone and these were available to us via email the next day. Refreshments were also provided before and during the trip. Sara was genuinely so excited herself in seeing the aurora which was brilliant. All in all I would highly recommend this company and these guides in particular.
