Fly to Ivalo and transfer to Aurora Village. Upon arrival, you will receive your program schedule before dinner. Depending on your arrival time, cold weather gear is given to you either upon arrival or the next day.

After breakfast, join your guide for a cultural day. Drive along the beautiful landscapes formed by several small lakes and the great Lake Inari. Your guide will tell you stories about Lapland as you approach the Lapp museum Siida where you’ll see a DVD of the Northern Lights. The guide will walk with you through the museum and will be there for you in case of questions. You can have also your own time in the museum of many international awards. The museum displays the original way of living of Sámi people and the Lappish wilderness with its eight seasons of the year. This is an exciting morning to see and hear about the Lappish way of living.

Return for lunch and free time before your evening Northern Lights search by car. After some research on the weather forecast, with a professional Aurora Hunter, you will drive it to places where the sky is most clear and the probability of seeing the Northern Lights is highest.

A hot drink and snack is included. You can get access to the photographs taken during the trip.

Experience Finnish Lapland at your own pace today with a choice of two unique excursions. Explore the forests and trails surrounding Levi on an electric fatbike tour, a favourite way for locals to enjoy the outdoors as the snow melts and the landscape comes to life after winter. With pedal assistance making the ride accessible, you'll venture into the wilderness before stopping for snacks and hot drinks around an open fire.

Alternatively, discover the wonders of the Arctic sky with a guided stargazing experience. Using a powerful telescope and accompanied by an experienced astronomy guide, you'll learn about the constellations, planets and celestial phenomena visible in the far north. The experience also includes an immersive planetarium visit and a warming hot drink, offering a fascinating glimpse into the universe above the Arctic Circle.

This morning, drive to Saariselkä by minibus. Together with a guide, hike up to the fell region of Urho Kekkonen National Park. It is Finland’s second largest national park, comprising the fell regions of Saariselkä, as well as the forest regions of the northern sections of the municipalities of Savukoski and Salla. This area named Koilliskaira is one of the last wilderness regions of Western Europe. The task of the National Park is the preservation of the native forest, bog and fell countryside. Good outdoor clothes and sturdy footwear are recommended.

Return to Aurora village and relax with a private sauna booking. Watch for Northern Lights from the jacuzzi or panoramic sauna. Perfect for your last night in Finland.

Activities can be changed if needed.

Today, travel from Ivalo across the far north to Kirkenes, a remote coastal town on the shores of the Barents Sea. This region is known for its Arctic landscapes, rich fishing heritage and close connection to the sea, making it a fascinating contrast to Finland's forested interior.

On arrival, join a memorable king crab safari, one of northern Norway's signature experiences. Travel by snowmobile sled across the frozen fjord to check the traps and learn about the giant Red King Crab, an introduced species that has become both an important local industry and a culinary delicacy. After posing for photos with your catch, watch as the crabs are prepared before sitting down to enjoy a fresh king crab feast served in traditional northern Norwegian style. It's an authentic taste of Arctic coastal life and a highlight of any visit to Kirkenes.

Experience one of the Arctic's most iconic traditions with a husky sledding excursion through the winter landscapes surrounding Kirkenes. After meeting the enthusiastic sled dogs and your experienced musher, settle into a shared sled and glide across frozen fjords and through lightly forested wilderness, taking in the peaceful scenery that defines Norway's far north.

Along the way, enjoy a break to learn about life as a musher and the special bond between the dogs and their handlers. Weather and ice conditions permitting, there may even be an opportunity to try driving the sled yourself. Combining breathtaking scenery, local storytelling and the exhilaration of travelling by dog team, this memorable experience offers an authentic glimpse into Arctic life in northern Norway.

Say goodbye to Snow Resort Kirkenes as you catch your transfer to the Airport.
