Our tour guide Elo was fantastic. She was always nice and friendly, helped us and provided us with the right information. Group was very nice. Just be prepared for long bus drives if you start from Helsinki (there is an option to start from Rovaniemi to avoid this just check with the operator). Although we had people older than 45 with us, they did the activities just as enthusiastically as the younger people. It was an awesome trip and I will remember it.
Grand Lapland Tour - Finland, Sweden and Norway with activitiesExcellent from start to finish, such a smooth payment plan and travel experience.
Lapland Winter AdventureOverall I'd rate the trip average to good. The Scandic Polar is in need of a serious makeover, its very dated and the rooms were very hot. I wasn't looking for a 5 star hotel, but I'd give it 2 stars. Saying its semi escorted is a joke. They organise your activities and you either get picked up and dropped off or you make your own way to the tour operators office. I could and should have just organised this tour myself instead of using Tourradar. Having said that, it didn't deter us from having fun and thats why I gave this tour an okay to good rating.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn in Lapland offers unique chances to blend wilderness hiking with Northern Lights viewing before winter sets in. Several tours take advantage of this special time, including a remote trek through Käsivarsi where you'll spend nights camping in two-person tents while photographing the aurora. Our TourRadar customers particularly enjoy the gradual ascent from birch forests to open tundra, often spotting wild reindeer herds along the way. The Finnish-focused tour starting from Ylläs combines daily hikes of 5-10 kilometers with opportunities to forage for mushrooms and berries, plus evening aurora photography sessions. For those seeking cultural elements alongside nature, the Helsinki-to-Lapland route lets you explore the capital's historic Senate Square before flying north to sleep in glass igloos and meet reindeer herders. These autumn adventures typically include practical elements like proper safety briefings and expert guides who know exactly where to position you for the best Northern Lights photos.
