What our customers ask about Northern Lights Tours & Trips in Finland
When is the best time to see the Northern Lights in Finland?
The Northern Lights viewing season in Finland stretches from late September to March with December through February offering the highest chances of sightings. Places like the Wilderness Hotel Muotka near Saariselkä and Hotel Jeris in Muonio position visitors well for aurora spotting.

A TourRadar traveler mentioned "The guides know the best locations for viewing and the dark skies away from city lights provide optimal conditions for witnessing this celestial spectacle."
What accommodation options are available for Northern Lights viewing in Finland?
Finland's range of aurora-focused lodging includes glass-roofed cabins which have become increasingly popular with visitors. Near Ivalo the Aurora Village offers heated glass-roof units where guests can watch for the lights while staying warm in bed.

What activities are typically included in a Finnish Northern Lights tour besides aurora viewing?
Finnish tours blend aurora watching with classic Arctic experiences. Most trips feature 2-4 hour husky safaris visits to reindeer farms with sleigh rides snowmobile trips through forests and guided snowshoe walks around spots like Lake Inari.
