Mother Nature's Most famous light show

Witnessing Mother Nature's most famous light show is one of the greatest travel experiences on Earth. Head north, above a latitude of 60° from late September through to late March, and you'll be in prime position for dazzling displays of this remarkable phenomenon. Whether you choose to visit Iceland, Finland, Sweden, or Norway, we can plan the perfect trip designed with aurora hunting in mind.

Glass Igloo Holidays

For aurora hunters desperate to catch a glimpse of the celestial light show but not so keen on enduring the freezing winter temperatures, Finnish Lapland offers the perfect solution. Glass igloos and aurora cabins are scattered throughout the north of the country. With entire roofs made of heated glass, guests can watch the bright green shimmering ribbons from the comfort of their very own bed.
