Artic Floating
Went on the Artic Floating excursion. Well coordinated, great guides who were fun and knowledgeable. Very relaxing, not cold in the suit. Unfortunately we got pretty wet in the process so take a change of clothes just in case.

Wow!
This is one of the best things I have ever experienced, 100% recommend. Our guides, Ali and Tiia, were amazing. The floating was so relaxing and we were lucky to get a clear night with amazing northern lights, and shooting stars. The hot drinks and marshmallows were so delicious as well.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your fantastic feedback! We’re delighted to hear you had such a memorable experience, from the relaxing floating to the magical night sky. Moments like these are what we strive to create for our guests, and we’re so happy you enjoyed every detail.

Just do it! 😁
What an amazing, exhilarating, and powerful once in a lifetime experience!!! I had reservations about doing this because of water and the Arctic 😅, but any coldness I felt was well and truly taken over by how much I loved the experience. Communication was impeccable. We weren’t rushed at all once the experience began. It was very much guided by when we were ready to move on. The suits keep all the water out! My suggestion is wear warm clothes and many layers as you would if out and about. No Northern Lights while floating, but looking up and seeing millions of stars, the Milky Way, and shooting stars. Just, wow! On the way back, I was blessed to get my first glimpse of the Northern lights too 🥹. I have the highest of praise for our leaders Tiia and Alejandro. They were professional, personable, knowledgeable, and created a wonderful evening full of memories. Highly recommend! 🙏🏻

Amazing float under the Northern Lights
One of the best tours we have been on. We were lucky to see the Northern Lights and had so much fun floating around looking like Teletubbies. The staff were great and we especially enjoyed our time chatting to the guide from Finland. He answered so many questions about life as a young man in Finland. Fascinating
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful feedback Juelene! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the tour, had fun floating under the Northern Lights, and appreciated the fascinating insights from our Finnish guide—it sounds like a truly magical experience!

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Aurora Floating in Rovaniemi: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rovaniemi.
How much does Aurora Floating in Rovaniemi cost?
+
Prices start at $165 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rovaniemi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Aurora Floating in Rovaniemi take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rovaniemi is not rushed.
Is Aurora Floating in Rovaniemi worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rovaniemi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Aurora Floating in Rovaniemi?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Aurora Floating in Rovaniemi suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Aurora Floating in Rovaniemi?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rovaniemi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rovaniemi and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Aurora Floating in Rovaniemi start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rovaniemi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rovaniemi?
+
On Outty we rank every Rovaniemi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Northern Lights Rovaniemi: Guaranteed Viewing & Unlimited Mileage, Rovaniemi: Korouoma Canyon & Frozen Waterfalls Tour with BBQ, Rovaniemi:%100 Guaranteed Northern Lights Hunt&Free Photos. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rovaniemi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rovaniemi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
