Location

This tour runs from Saariselkä, at a resort village in northern Finland, deep in the heart of Lapland.

250km north of the Arctic Circle, the area you’ll be staying in is a vast expanse of pristine pine forest that is home to bears, golden eagles, wolverines, and thousands of reindeer.

You’ll be staying in the beautiful Northern Lights Village.

All the activities in the Northern Lights Village begin in the yard outside and the restaurant Kota is only a stone’s throw away. The services at the center of Saariselkä, such as the store, the spa, and restaurants are only a 350-meter walk away while on the other side, the cabins are lined by uninhabited fells and forests.

What our travellers are saying...

We have just returned from our amazing adventure to Lapland. We had a brilliant time and packed so much in to our 4 days but without feeling we were rushing around. The food and accommodation were fantastic and the activities were excellent too, so many firsts and ‘bucket-list’ things. We also managed to fit in a husky sledge tour and a day at the local ski slope. Thank you to the excellent team of guides (Tamara and Hamma specifically), expe

I came to Finland for the Aurora, but I stayed for the people. They are the ones that took my stay from just plain awesome to completely amazeballs! Forget about going anywhere else and book your experience of a lifetime with this small team. Treat my new friends in a faraway land with kindness and respect and they will go above and beyond for you, guaranteed.
