About this experience
Chase the Northern Lights one night, then relax beneath them the next. On Night 1, we pick you up from your hotel and head beyond the city lights in search of clear skies. Your guide tracks real-time aurora data to choose the best viewing spots while sharing northern legends, tips for photography, and warm drinks and snacks.
On Night 2, settle into a heated cabin at our private Arctic Aurora Camp — a cozy and quiet space surrounded by boreal forest. Watch the lights through panoramic windows or step outside for photos near the traditional tipis and glass-roofed shelters.
This 2-night combo offers the perfect mix of movement and comfort, all guided by locals who know the land, the lights, and how to keep your aurora dreams alive. Hotel pickup and drop-off included each night.
Your journey to the aurora starts here — come chase, then stay.
