FAQ — Northern Lights Tours With Arctic GM
What is the best time of year to see the Northern Lights in Lapland?
The best time to experience the Northern Lights in Lapland is between late August and early April. During this period, the long, dark nights offer the best chances for clear visibility of the Aurora Borealis.
Do you guarantee a full-sky Northern Lights display (aurora storm) during your tours?
We understand that witnessing the breathtaking beauty of a full-sky Northern Lights display, also known as an aurora storm, is a dream for many of our customers. While we can assure you that we offer excellent opportunities to view the Northern Lights in Rovaniemi, Levi, Tromsø and Kiruna, we want to be transparent about our guarantee.
Our Guarantee: We guarantee that you will see the Northern Lights during our tours. However, it's important to note that the intensity and scale of the Northern Lights, whether they are a small display or a spectacular aurora storm covering the entire sky, cannot be predicted or guaranteed by anyone. The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon influenced by various factors, including location, winds, solar activity and several other weather conditions.
How do you predict Northern Lights viewing conditions for the next few days or months?
We take great care to ensure you have the best chance of witnessing the mesmerizing Northern Lights during your tour in Rovaniemi, Levi, Tromsø or Kiruna. Predicting the Northern Lights is a complex process that involves monitoring various factors. Here's how we do it:
Daily Monitoring: Our dedicated team of experts continually monitors a wide range of factors on a daily basis. This includes staying up-to-date with weather forecasts, wind patterns, locations, space weather reports, and real-time data on solar activity. We also harness the power of our extensive network of friends and family living in various locations throughout Lapland for local insights.
Team Meetings: To make the most accurate predictions, we hold team meetings the day before your tour and on the same day as your tour. During these meetings, we gather and analyze all available information to determine the likelihood of Northern Lights visibility.
Local Expertise: Our guides and team members are locals with extensive knowledge of the Lapland region. They use their experience and insights to select the best viewing locations based on the latest information.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Our tours are flexible and designed to maximize your chances of seeing the Northern Lights. Thanks to unlimited mileage and our 24/7 Aurora tracking, we will go wherever clear skies can be found — even if it means driving long distances. If weather conditions truly prevent visibility, our team will advise and assist you.
How many guests are on each tour?
Our tours are small-group experiences, with a maximum of 8 guests depending on the tour type. We also offer private tours. This ensures a personal, comfortable, and authentic Arctic experience.
What kind of vehicles do you use?

What clothing do I need? Is winter gear provided?
We provide a winter overall for the duration of the tour, but please note that we do not supply boots or hats. To stay comfortable in cold weather, we recommend wearing layered, warm clothing—including thermal wear—and bringing essential accessories such as a hat, gloves, and a scarf. This ensures you remain cozy and enjoy the experience to the fullest.
Can I book last minute?
Please note that we are often fully booked, especially during peak season. We recommend booking as early as possible to secure your spot. However, if you are looking for last-minute availability, feel free to contact us — we reply fast and will do our best to assist you.
