Will I get a refund if I don't see  auroras?
The aurora borealis is a natural occurance so Lights Over Lapland can not make any form of gurantee that you will see the lights during our tour. If you do not see the lights during your time with us and you want to give it another try please let us know and we will happily offer you a small discount on a new booking if we have availability.

Will you cancel the chase if the forecast is bad?
No, the tour will go on as planned as long as the road conditions allow us to safely operate the adventure.
