Itinerary
Upon arrival at Rovaniemi airport, you will be met and transferred to the Apukka Resort, just 15 minutes away.
You’ll check into your accommodation and receive your warm winter clothes before enjoying a dinner buffet in the restaurant.
Depending on flight times, you could start your Aurora search tonight with a dedicated activity. See our Extras section for a range of activities.
Included Meals: Dinner
Breakfast will be served in the restaurant and then today has been left free for you to enjoy as you please. You could add to your Arctic adventure with a dog sledding safari – see our Extras section for more information.
After dinner, it’s time to board the Snowtrain carriage and let your guide take you out into the dark and silent night to reach a wilderness camp. Upon arrival, you will keep warm inside a traditional Lappish ‘Kota’ (teepee) with an open fire.
Here, you will have snacks and hot drinks by the fire as your expert guide tells you about the science and magic behind the Northern Lights, all the while keeping an eye on the sky for a potential display. You will be out for approximately three hours in total tonight.
Included Meals: Breakfast, Dinner
Following breakfast, you have another free day to tailor your time. You could add to your Lappish experience a reindeer sleigh ride or relax further in the onsite sauna facilities (charges apply). See our Extras section for more information.
Tonight, after dinner, you will head out once more into the Arctic night. You will step inside the warm car with your knowledgeable guide taking you to the best location based on the local weather and Aurora forecast.
For the more active guests, you can upgrade to a Northern Lights snowmobile safari instead (you must be over 18 years old and hold a full driving licence to drive a snowmobile). Please talk to our Aurora Travel Experts at the time of booking.
