Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had booked the aurora hunt in French for €100 (+€25 cancellation insurance), with the possibility of postponing the evening if the weather conditions were bad. On the first day, the sky was overcast and the hunt was postponed until the next day, as the sky was clearer. That evening, we spent a superb evening in a small group of 5. We made 2 stops to see the aurora (30 minutes by car), the first was a little difficult to access (frosted footbridge in marshes) and we we saw the first dawns. The second was near a small road, and we stopped there as the auroras exploded in the sky. We ate a small snack around a wood fire nearby (cakes, sausages, marshmallow and blueberry juice).
Our guide, Chris, was funny and cultured. He took good care of us. However, the temperatures quickly dropped and it was very cold (2-3°C), so you still need to wrap up well.

We booked a 'Northern Lights tour' knowing at this time of the season the chances were very low. However, Adrien who guided us through this unforgettable night, knew so well where and when to expect them that I felt blessed just to be accompained by him. After waiting around the fire in a beautiful Tipi on top of a frozen lake between a snack and a cup of tea, a speechless green and purple panorama broke into the Sky. I will never forget this night.

We came to spend a week with family. And if we were able to enjoy this stay so much it is largely thanks to the activities of Nordic Odyssey. Always very well organized, the equipment loaned is of quality and the locations are always perfectly chosen. But above all a big thank you to all our guides: Martin, Antoine, Emma, Justine and Camille. They gave us a lot of knowledge and allowed us to safely enjoy all our activities and the landscapes. In addition, they were all very kind and very humble. If you want your vacation to be successful, don't hesitate to organize it with them

We had an excellent time with our tour guide Jeremie on a three hour northern lights walk with snowshoes. We walked for a bit until we reached a camp spot on a frozen lake where Jeremie set up a camp fire, and we ate sausages and drank hot beverages, and learned about Finnish nature. Jeremie was very kind and attentive, and although it ended up being too cloudy for northern lights during our walk, we got some great pictures (Jeremie had a great camera), and he taught us what to look for to see the lights later in the night!

I went on an amethyst mining hike with Justine.

The organization is square, punctual, the price is correct.

In a small group, it was great.
I definitely recommend.
I will return there with pleasure.

I also rented a bike, the equipment is great.

Thank you for a nice day.

I planned our private tour about a year before it actually happened. I emailed the team frequently, and they were always quick to respond.

Our day finally arrived, and we headed out to see the lights! Adrien took care of all of the details, but unfortunately for us, mother nature did not cooperate that evening! However...

The Nordic Odyssey team was fully booked the following evening, but they sent us frequent updates and locations on where to see the lights. We all jumped in a cab and spent an hour looking at God's creation. It was wonderful.

Thank you all!

We had the most wonderful time with our guide Adrien. We learned so many things about Lapland and the life there thanks to him. Even though the auroras weren’t as powerful as we would have wanted them to be, the experience itself was completely worth it! We would 100% recommend the Northern Lights photography hunting trip.

Although I have not yet done any excursions, I can say that I have rarely found such a kind and helpful tour operator. In fact, I am planning to do a series of excursions with Chris for the coming Christmas holidays and he immediately proved to be the right person to organize our excursions. He is always available and kind and satisfied us on every request, creating a perfect travel program. I can't wait to be able to do all the planned excursions with him.

Awesome tour guide! Went on two guided hikes with Christophe and both were great experiences. He has great knowledge about nature and the surroundings and taught us a lot - from making a fire to reading tracks. We appreciated his honesty and care that he showed towards us and also the snacks he brought along :) All in all it was a wonderful experience... that's why we booked him again and hopefully we get the chance to do it another time. If you're looking for a guide that is knowledgeable, funny and caring, you won't be disappointed by Chris!

Was trying to book a last minute ice climbing trip and this place was about the 4th company I went to. Shout out to Chris for going above and beyond and trying to make it happen. His company didn’t offer this but he emailed another one. I haven’t received customer service like this in Europe ever. If I was staying another day in Rovaniemi I would have definitely booked a trip with them but had my heart set on going ice climbing. I was able to go too! Thanks again Chris!!!!
