Northern Lights Hunt & Photography Experience
Operated by Kotatuli Experience
Overview
Join a family-run company from Rovaniemi for a unique Northern Lights adventure. More than just aurora hunting, this is a hands-on photography experience where you’ll learn to capture the Arctic skies yourself. With a local guide using real-time weather and solar data, you’ll travel as far as needed for the best chance of seeing the aurora. While waiting, discover the secrets of aurora photography and get professional portraits under the lights. Wrapped in warm blankets with hot drinks, enjoy stories of Lapland, aurora myths, and life in the North. Although the tour includes photography guidance, it is not only for those passionate about taking pictures. Anyone can join – even those who simply want to enjoy the beauty of Lapland’s nature. To crown the night, receive a Northern Lights Hunting Certificate — a personal souvenir of your Arctic journey. This is more than a tour: it’s an intimate blend of storytelling, photography, and hospitality.
