Highlights of the tour include dogsledding in snowy forests, curling lessons from locals, enjoying a meal filled with local dishes with homesteaders, soaking in geothermal hot springs, learning the art of photographing the Aurora Borealis, snowshoeing and drinking tea with a family of reindeer herders.

 

This season is special because the solar maximum, also known as the highest rate of solar activity during the sun’s 11-year solar cycle, is expected to hit between late 2024 and 2026. This can result in higher activity of Aurora Borealis.
