Private Aurora Chase from Rovaniemi: Two Ranges, Full Refund if Nothing Shows
No barbecue, no coach, no waiting your turn for the photographer. The point of this operator is speed: a small group or private vehicle that can change direction the moment the forecast does. Weather, cloud cover, aurora activity and road conditions are checked each evening, and the route follows them instead of a fixed itinerary. Two options, and the difference between them is range. Aurora Chase: 4 to 6 hours, up to about 120 km, with multiple stops. Private Aurora: 6 hours or more, fully private, with flexible chasing up to about 200 to 250 km when needed. Both run in a vehicle with forward-facing seats, with pick-up and drop-off at your accommodation. The photography is professional and exclusive to your group, so nobody queues for the camera, and the files arrive digitally within 24 hours. An aurora counts as seen when it is visible to the naked eye or caught by the guide's camera. The return to Rovaniemi is normally between midnight and 2 am, depending on conditions. On the guarantee: the northern lights are a natural phenomenon and nobody can truly guarantee them. What the Guaranteed Aurora option guarantees is the money. If you do not see the aurora, 100% of the tour price comes back.

Lapland
A night under the Arctic sky chasing the aurora, run as a small group so the evening stays personal. Pick-up is at your accommodation, in a vehicle with forward-facing seats. The drive leaves the city lights for open country, and the stops are chosen from weather, cloud cover and aurora activity rather than habit: locations change when conditions improve elsewhere. At the viewing spot the guide covers the science and the myths that came before it, then helps you get the lights onto your own camera or phone while shooting the group on a DSLR. Warm Finnish drinks are served, and glögi during the Christmas season. The drop-off in Rovaniemi is normally between midnight and 2 am.
