The Northern Lights are never guaranteed… except with us.

Hunting the Northern Lights in Lapland is a once-in-a-lifetime experience — and with Arctic GM, it becomes a professional, family-friendly hunt on a scale unlike any other. This bus tour combines real-time Aurora tracking, expert guides, and modern heated coaches to give you the best chance of seeing the Aurora Borealis.

As Lapland’s Original Aurora Hunters™, our family has lived here for 20 generations since the 1600s. Trusted by over 50,000 guests worldwide, Arctic GM is one of Lapland’s most respected operators. Every tour is run fully in-house with certified, first-aid-trained guides, ensuring safety, authenticity, and excellence.

This tour is ideal for families, couples, and groups who want to enjoy the comfort of a modern heated bus and the reassurance of a shorter 4–6h format, while still benefiting from Arctic GM’s unmatched Aurora expertise.

Your evening begins at Arctic GM’s central office in Rovaniemi, where you’ll meet your certified Aurora guides and board a spacious heated coach. From there, the hunt begins: we drive up to 2 hours one-way in search of clear skies, guided by our 24/7 Aurora Command Center and 150+ field team members across Lapland. If skies are clearer across the Swedish border, we go there too.

Along the way, your guides will share Aurora science, Arctic legends, and local knowledge — while capturing professional DSLR photos of your experience. Thermal overalls, hot drinks, and light snacks are included to keep you comfortable in Arctic conditions.

When the Aurora appears, you’ll step into Lapland’s wilderness and witness one of nature’s most breathtaking displays.

This tour is shorter and more relaxed than our unlimited small-group minivan hunts, making it the perfect choice for families with children, or anyone seeking a professional yet accessible Northern Lights experience in Rovaniemi.
