Finn, you are amazing! - Had an amazing experience with Finn. Finn is very passionate about the Northern lights. Even if we did not see them, he was an experience in itself to listen to him. He has gone above and beyond my expectations to find us the northern lights! Thank you Finn, you have created some beautiful memories for a long time! There was very little chance to see the northern lights in Finland so we drove to Sweden and luck was on our side. We had a show for 90 mins before the clouds came back. Thank you also to the Beyond team to allow us to reschedule the hunt as the weather was not good the day before.

An activity perfectly suited for a family or a small group - We would like to thanks our guide Andy. Despite a bad weather she managed to find a spot with a clear sky. We enjoyed the activity within a place with nobody around. Perfect conditions to be amazed with the north light while having comforting grilled foods and hot drinks.

No northern lights, but - thanks to Andie - amazing pictures of an unforgettable fun and special experience. - This was our second tour with Beyond Artic, which was selected by our travel agency AMEX/A&K. We did not yet know that Beyond Artic distinguishes itself by offering high-quality photos of their tours. When we realised, we were super enthusiastic about it. I am a hobby photographer, but taking photos at -20 degrees with a complex professional camera turned out to be too much of a challenge for me. Fantastic when it turns out that your guide is a professional photographer / camerawoman. Although the term 'northern lights' is always part of the name of excursions, we did not see the phenomenon in six days. Not even during this excursion. But we still enjoyed it immensely and had a great evening. The most important ingredient: the fantastic sense of humor and the fantastic creativity of our guide and photographer Andie. The northern lights were not photographed, we were. And every time Andie came up with something new, which gave us truly fantastic photos. And while we warmed ourselves in between at the fire she made, she told us about the effect of climate change in Lapland, especially for the wild animals in the forests. No northern lights, but - thanks to Andie - amazing pictures of an unforgettable fun and special experience.

Worth the money - Skip the slightly cheaper group tours and go for this private tour. Our guide Aleksei went above and beyond making sure we saw the lights. He had several apps and ways of figuring out where the lights were. We were out for over 6 hours. We did a group tour with a different tour company the next night and it paled in comparison.

Great experience - We had an amazing experience with Oren our guide as he provided us with lot of information about the Northern lights. Oren kept on driving and trying to make sure that we see the lights and he also shared lot of information in detail about the lights in a fun and engaging way. I will recommend Oren for a great experience.

Experience the dancing photons on the first row!! - Your guide is 50% of your experience, the rest is the Northern Lights. Aki went far and beyond to make sure we had a 100% amazing experience. He drove for miles to find the perfect clear skies to be able to see and photograph the most spectacular show of lights possible on that night. Aki was kind, informative, and we got to know some of his personal interests as he is as transparent as you would want a friend to be. Don't hesitate, if you're lucky to see the Northern Lights and to get Aki as your guide the rest is a bonus! Reserve NOW!

Beyond Arctic is Beyond Expectation! - Transportation comfortable, equipment and gear such as overalls (special suit), socks, gloves, boot even hit drinks are included. Our tour guide is Mr Oren is very knowledgeble about the aurora. All the way to the hunting spot, he gave us information and explanation. You can ask him anything about the northern light. That night Oren drove us 150km to hunting the aurora and we super lucky to have the dancing one! Highly recommended.

Highlight of our trip! - We went on a private tour with Oren who was fantastic. He told us everything about the Northern Lights as well as other interesting information about Lapland and Finnish culture. The best part about being on a private tour was that we could stretch the usual horizons of a Northern Light tour and keep driving until we found them (in Sweden, to be precise). This was quite spectacular as when we left Rovaniemi there was a heavy snow storm and probably a 5% chance of seeing them. We were still home by 1 am and even our young kids got to stay awake to see the lights. Our son has the photo framed in his bedroom, it's his favourite memory. Thank you, Oren - 5 stars!
