Aurora Hunting Tours from Rovaniemi
Meet the core: Lorenzo and Luisa
We both fell in love with the Arctic nature of Lapland — especially the Aurora Borealis. We spent countless nights chasing the lights and turned our passion and the arctic into our home. From this passion, we founded Arctic Road Trips — a small company in Rovaniemi specialised on Aurora Hunting Tours.
We came up with the idea to do the Aurora Road Trips. It’s our own concept made to maximise the chances to see the Northern Lights while experiencing the untouched beauty of the Arctic. Every photo you see here was taken by us along the way.
If have questions or you’re just curious we’d love to hear from you.

AURORA ROAD TRIP
On this multi-day Aurora trip, we let nature decide where to go. Each day we follow the clearest skies, which can lead us anywhere across northern Finland, Sweden, or Norway. We developed this concept as the first one in world to give you the best chances to get to see the Aurora.
So far, every single trip has reached a 100% Aurora success rate. But the trip is more than just Aurora — along the way you’ll see the beauty of the Arctic: peaceful forests, snowy fells, or stunning fjords.
If you’re dreaming of real Aurora Hunt, our Road Trips might be exactly for you.
ONE NIGHT AURORA TOUR
Our One Night Aurora Hunting Tour starts from Rovaniemi, Finland, with one true goal: to show you the Northern Lights. We don’t waste your night — we only depart when there is a real chance to see them.
Our tour has no time or distance limit. Whether it takes 200 km or 800 km, we go as far and as long as needed to reach clear skies and give you the best chance.
Starting point: Rovaniemi, Finland
NATIONAL PARK TOURS
On this trip you’ll discover another part of Lapland, with landscapes that feel even wilder and more untouched. In Riisitunturi National Park, you can walk among the famous “snowy giants” — trees so covered in snow that they can weigh up to two tons. It’s a quiet, almost surreal place.
This is our first attempt to chase the aurora and we are glad we caught it with the passionate folks from Artic Road Trips.
We took a gamble after seeing their IG and Google reviews but it turned out to the best thing ever - they are not bounded by KM to HR - they kept going till we spot the northern lights activities.
Booking a trip was simple. Sign up and they will be in touch leading up to your trip via WhatsApp.
Then on the actual day of the adventure, they will let you know the time for pick up.
This is a small group tour and pls bundle
Up. It’s cold when you are out in the open.
Our guide, Romain was attentive, detailed, careful and very knowledgeable. Despite the cloudy and rainy day, we found our way to a spotting of a low grade activity but he was very persistent and he knew where to hunt for the next spot. Hearing him and see his photos gave us a lot of comfort that we will find something and boom it happened.
Here are the photos from my camera and the second batch is from him.
If you are planning for your first Aurora experience, trust these guys. Really. Look no further!

Our Northern Lights hunt with the Arctic Road Trip team was one of the most incredible experiences of our lives! We chose the “One Night Road Trip” and went aurora hunting for two consecutive days, guided by our guide Romain on October 2025.
On the first day, we had better weather conditions and were able to see the Northern Lights from a lake. The aurora was reflected on the water, creating an incredibly beautiful scene—something our eyes could hardly believe. The sky was also clear, and all the stars were visible, along with even some planets, like Jupiter.
On the second day, we traveled a bit farther to find a sky with fewer clouds and were able to see the aurora in a forested area, where the moon also put on a beautiful show. Our guide explained how the auroras form in the sky and gave us several photography tips, helping us set up our cameras so we could also take some photos and videos. We talked about the stars and planets, and both nights were filled with learning and awe.
We also got some beautiful photos taken by Romain, who was very patient, helpful, and attentive with everyone on the tour. It was clear how dedicated he was to making the tour the best it could be for everyone—well-prepared to find the best spots, knowledgeable in his explanations, and even concerned about whether everyone was staying warm during the cold night.
We had a safe trip back to the hotel, and the adrenaline from seeing the auroras stayed with us for a long time! I wish everyone could have this experience one day—and preferably with this team, who clearly loves what they do! We definitely recommend it and hope to return someday!

An exceptional four-day road trip. The clouds made things really difficult for Lorenzo, who managed to find us viewing spots every night. Three countries in four days, and every night, magnificent Northern Lights. The road trip is also about discovering landscapes, countries, hiking, sharing, and lots of laughter. Lorenzo, Luisa, and Luke have a wonderful, infectious energy; they go out of their way to allow us to experience a magical moment every day. They are only satisfied when we can see the Northern Lights. My next trip is already booked, with Arctic Road Trips of course.
I have been following these guys on instagram since forever. I was finally able to join their tour and they more than delivered.
The weather was horrendous with a big cloud blanket covering all of Scandinavia. Lorenzo and Luisa asked everyone that could to join a day earlier (for free 😱) to ensure the best chance of seeing it. And that was a sick night! Then Lorenzo and Luke raced us across Finland, Norway AND Sweden for the official tour to give us the best possible chance. And we saw aurora all 5 nights!! They went above and beyond to give you the best experience, teaching you about aurora and the region along the way.
During the day there was plenty of time for other things such as hikes. We did a lot. These guys are pros and on top of that funny! It was an absolute joy to join them. Everything was neatly arranged, communication was easy and fast, transport was great and they took care of accommodations. If I return to this area I will 100% join their tours again. The passion of these guys is unmatched and it is a joy to be able to share in that. (They also take sick shots of you 🙌🏻)

After following Lorenzo on Instagram for a couple of years I finally had the chance to go on two aurora hunts with Arctic Road Trips, one with Luke and one with Romain, and both experiences were amazing.
On the first night, the weather looked hopeless with thick clouds everywhere, but Luke didn’t give up and decided to take us all the way to Sweden. After hours and hours of chasing clear skies, we finally got to witness a beautiful aurora, something I’ll never forget as it was my very first one!
The second night was completely different: the aurora showed up early and gave us an amazing show right away. But instead of stopping there, Romain kept driving us to different spots as the aurora shifted and the conditions changed, making sure we had the best possible views for as long as we could.
What really stood out is how passionate they all are. You can tell they genuinely love what they do, and they’ll go above and beyond to make sure you have the best chance to experience the magic of the northern lights.
If you’re considering booking with them, don’t hesitate. You’ll be in the best hands!
A huge thank you to Luke, Romain and Arctic road trips for two unforgettable nights under the northern lights =)

A trip like this will be remembered forever. It was a unique experience that filled our eyes and minds with pure beauty, magnificent landscapes, and incredible emotions! Thank you, Lorenzo and Luisa, for overwhelming us with your passion for the Aurora Borealis and giving us the opportunity to create such wonderful memories!
The best hunters ever!

We had the most unforgettable experience with this Northern Lights and Adventure Tour. From start to finish, Lorenzo & Luisa showed genuine care and personal attention, making us feel less like customers and more like family. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and they went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment throughout the journey.
What stood out the most was their warmth, patience, and personal touch — they took the time to answer our questions, adjust to our needs, and make sure we were fully immersed in the magic of the Aurora and the adventure activities. Their passion and dedication truly shine through in everything they do.
Lorenzo & Luisa are highly professional, yet so caring and attentive — an absolute 5-star experience! We couldn’t have asked for a better team to make this dream trip so special. 🌟

Aurora road tripping for Luisa and Lorenzo is amazing. They are the absolutely best in Lapland. Our multi night road trip was a success where we saw the aurora almost every night and caught the most amazing display I’ve seen in my life. Lorenzo did all of the driving and we camped in amazing locations in Norway. We toured the entire Lapland, saw wild foxes and had really great food in Finnish Lapland. They took care of everything for our small group. That included bringing camping gear for us, picking us up and dropping us off, plus taking photos and videos for us. They’re super knowledgeable and their passion cannot be matched! I can’t wait for my next trip to Rovaniemi and joining Lorenzo and Luisa again!
Diana was our tour guide and she made the whole journey very fun with her stories and experience
She is very passionate and really went the distance (literally) for us to get amazing views of the aurora
Highly recommend Diana!

It was a dream trip with Lorenzo to chase auroras and explore nature in Arctic. Lorenzo and his team is very passionate about chasing auroras and also try utmost to make everyone comfortable. I absolutely loved the trip and also to meet like minded people. I would definitely come back again.
What can I say? Fantastic!! Hunting the Northern Lights is a thrilling experience, something you should try at least once in your life, and if possible, with the guys at Arctic Road Trips! They do it out of passion, so they'd go looking for a spot of clear sky to see the Northern Lights show anyway, and they get excited like children when it happens, so what better way to support them in their dream? Tourists who spend excessively on everything are right to help this team monetize their passion and make a living from it. They're also so passionate about this topic that they're keen to share technical details and everything needed to understand the phenomenon. They're all friendly, kind, down-to-earth, helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable, and they take spectacular photos! Diana is also super friendly, sensitive, and witty, and I felt very much in tune with her. I see a lot of myself in her passion for travel and exploring new places, and in her sensitivity towards others and nature! I highly recommend them!
This tour was absolutely amazing. Very professional. A special shoutout to Diana our tour leader she was soooooo passionate and enthusiastic we had a blast with her . This was our first trip for the aurora and she made sure we saw it . Thanks
Luisa has been the best guide i have ever had, the ability to drive 8 hours or more to hunt auroras is impressive, also how she cares about everyone if you are confortable and warm. You will have the real "HUNT" experience. I didn't just see one aurora, I saw a completely show, an endless dance of auroras, more than 4 hours and 3 days, you gave me one of the best life time experience Luisa, muchas gracias. I couldn´t ask for better first experience i even cry seeing the Norwegian Fjords. 100% recommend doing road trips, because you will not only see the auroras, but also the beautiful landscapes of Scandinavia, i think Luisa and Lorenzo know all the roads and the best spots in Sweden, Norway and Finland :P, is impressive and them knowledge about auroras is other level! Many thanks Luisa, for your kindness and the dedication you give, that at the end made me love the aurora and Lapland :))))) Gracias Lu
After two previous attempts (in other countries and years) to see the northern lights, I finally decided I had to join a trip with ART after watching Lorenzo in an Italian TV show. And the dream came true! 😍 Lorenzo and Luisa are so driven by their passion that they go all the way and beyond to make you experience the magic of aurora, too! I loved the road trip in small groups (so you get to know and bond with the others quite quickly), the nice accommodations, and the whole experience as you get to see Finland (and perhaps Sweden and Norway too) by day (lovely hike also!) and hunt for aurora at night. Lorenzo does make it a thrilling adventure so be prepared for long nights in the wild (with freezing temperatures in winter and in some cases no toilets for a long time - just so you are aware) that you will never forget! The cold, the long drive, the wait, everything is just so worth it when you get to see those magical lights! I am pretty sure I'll do it again and I would definitely choose ART again because they are simply the best! 💚💜❤️
Top! Truly an experience everyone should have at least once in their life: Lorenzo and Luisa are truly the best.
Just got back from my first Aurora road trip with Lorenzo and Luke and wow, what an experience I will never forget! Not only did we get to see some amazing Aurora's, but the day activities (hiking & nature sight seeing) were an amazing bonus to the trip. If you’re looking to polish your photography skills or just get out there and see the Aurora, look no further. This is the best operation & guided service you will find in Lapland. Top notch!!!
We had heard that there were many companies in Rovaniemi offering Northern Lights tours, but we also came across some negative reviews about them. So, my girlfriend and I found Lorenzo’s page on Instagram and quickly realized he was the best in the business.
We decided to book with him, as seeing the Northern Lights had always been a dream of ours and we finally made it come true! Lorenzo was outstanding; you can tell he is truly passionate about what he does. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and always happy to answer our questions. Without a doubt, the best in Rovaniemi!!

We went on an aurora trip with Lucas, and that was the best decision ever! His enthusiasm for chasing the Northern Lights was unmatched—he went above and beyond to make our night absolutely magical. Thanks to Lucas, we witnessed the aurora dancing in the sky, a moment we'll never forget. His passion and dedication to the hunt are truly unparalleled.
Thank you so much, Lucas! Can’t wait to chase the lights with you again!

Diana is a very passionate person, she is friendly and we had a fantastic aurora hunting night.
We were very lucky on that day and we have seen the aurora after 30 min after the tour was started but she decided to took us in other wonderful place and give us the opportunity to see more auroras and then the explosion of it.
Everything was absolutely fantastic, she took beautiful photos that will be for us one of the best memories.
Seeing the aurora is something that gives to you emotions that are difficult to express. Is one of my and my partner dream and we couldn’t have better person as Diana.
Highly recommended!
