## What the operator says

This is not a standard Northern Lights tour — it is a fully private Aurora hunt with no fixed route, no time limits, and unlimited mileage. If no Northern Lights are captured by camera at any point during your tour, you will receive a full refund.
Operated by The Original Aurora Hunters®, Arctic GM is a family-run company with roots in Lapland dating back to the 1600s, combining generations of local knowledge with continuous Aurora and weather tracking.
Your guide adapts the plan throughout the night, with the flexibility to travel long distances and even cross into neighboring countries when conditions require — all to maximize your chances of clear skies.
Supported by real-time updates from Arctic GM’s large team across Lapland, this approach focuses on finding the best possible conditions, rather than following a fixed schedule.
Throughout the experience, your guide acts as your personal photographer, capturing high-quality images of your private night under the Northern Lights.
