Northern lights wilderness tour with professional camera

Excellent

5/5

1 reviews

After pick-up from your accommodation and properly dressed in professional winter overalls and boots (temperature can drop to -30°C!), your Arctic guide will drive straight out to the wilderness to start hunting for the Northern Lights.

Based on the analysis of the weather situation and on experience, you will visit locations that will offer the best chances to see the Northern Lights. Your guide will keep checking the conditions so you might jump back in the van to visit another location.

During the drive, your guide will lead you past some fantastic sceneries. You can take a short walk through the snowy forest or to the top of some fells, you can visit a hanging wooden bridge over powerful rapids, enjoy the silence on a lake beach, or stand in the middle of an immensity of ice and snow.

This tour operates most of the time in complete darkness, this way your eyes get time to adjust to the dark. Not only do your eyes adjust (you actually see better in the dark!) but you also see the scenery in a completely new way.

Enjoy a little break where your guide will teach you how to light a fire in the traditional way, without matches or lighters. Once the fire is lit, your guide will tell you about the forest, the nature of Lapland, and the Northern Lights. Enjoy a hot beverage to warm you up and grill your own sausages over the open fire.

During the tour, your guide will take pictures with a professional camera. A link to download all the pictures will be sent to you the next day.
