Michael / Mikhail was super friendly and super knowledgeable. I get super cold super fast, he was kind enough to get me the right outfit, kind enough check in throughout the thing, warm enough? Fast enough etc. We only saw a mild bit of aurora but the experience is still worth it. Standing in the middle of a frozen lake in the cold and looking up at the cosmos.

Went on the snowmobile aurora tour with my partner last week and wow—what a night! Our guide (sorry, forgot his name, maybe Jari?) was suuuper friendly and kept checking we were comfy on the snowmobiles. It was COLD, bring extra socks! We stopped at a little hut for hot berry juice (yum) and cookies. We saw the lights faint at first, then they just went MAD across the sky. Felt a bit like a movie. I kept dropping my gloves, lol, but staff helped me out every time. Only minus—my helmet visor fogged up, but honestly still worth every minute.

Don’t usually write reviews but this snowmobile tour was something different. Group was a bit large (12 ppl?), so sometimes felt a little rushed when we stopped for pics. Lights showed up but were kinda faint, guide explained that’s just how it goes sometimes. He had SO many stories though. We roasted marshmallows over fire, which my kids LOVED. If you’ve never snowmobiled before—be ready for a bumpy ride lol. Would do again, just smaller group next time.

Set out on a 4-hour guided snowmobile adventure from Rovaniemi, with a chance to spot the Northern Lights in a small group.
