9.3 Hours Snowmobiling under Auroras and Night Sky

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 31 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $162

From Levi, you’ll drive a shared snowmobile through the Lappish wilderness for about 30 km, stopping at a tipi-style campfire for sausages, marshmallows, coffee, and juice. Guides such as Antonin and Emme keep the group together and provide thermal clothing. Aurora sightings depend on clear skies, but the night ride and stars remain part of the experience.

“JUST BOOK IT !! Probably the best excursion I ever have done. The northern lights weren't at there brightest unfortunately but I still managed a few good pictures of the lights. Driving a snowmobile through the forest at night crossing frozen rivers and lakes was just as good of an experience as seeing the lights. We visited a teepee tent and cooked sausages and marshmallows on the fire with our guide Antoin who was very friendly and helpful. If you are thinking about booking it definitely do it took about 3 hours in total and is definitely one for the bucket list 👌.”
