    Booking.com's Scam: Denying a Refund It Promised

    Travelers, Be Aware Booking.com's Scam! Booking.com has denied a refund it promised against all the evidence and then made up various excuses. In April this year, I booked a hotel in Reykjavik through B.com. On 4/12 B.Com confirmed in an email that the payment was successful and the payment appeared on my credit card on 4/14. When I cancelled the reservation, B.Com emailed me to confirm the free cancellation and promised that a refund was on the way. More than 5 months have passed and I've made 14 appeals for a refund. B.com responded variously as 1) I didn't cancel the reservation; 2) B.com didn't captured the payment; 3) B.com is reprocessing the refund. The first two responses completely disregarded the documented evidence from B.com itself that I've sent them. As for the 3rd response, no refund has ever come. It is such a disgrace that has completely undermined my trust in B.com. Any reporters on this site should investigate and report on its fraudulent practice.

    Our guide Ilker knew...

    Our guide Ilker knew exactly what he was doing. He was very kind and knowledgeable, he told us a lot about the Northern Lights, and with a little patience, he allowed us to witness an incredible show beyond all expectations and forecast!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for this fantastic review! 🌌 It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your evening with Ilker and that his knowledge and patience helped make the Aurora hunt such a memorable experience. The Northern Lights don’t always follow the forecasts, which is exactly what makes seeing an unexpected display so exciting! We’re thrilled that you were able to witness something that went beyond what you had hoped for. ✨ We’ll be very happy to share your kind words with Ilker. Thank you for trusting us with your Aurora adventure and for choosing Book Lapland. We hope that magical night will remain one of your favourite memories from your time in Lapland! 💙

    Our guide SK is amazing; not only is she was committed to hunt down the best aurora, she explained everything about the phenomenon, and was very pleasant to have a conversation with! In the end we saw dancing auroras! Which is also a testament to her as an aurora hunter!

    Response from the operator: What a wonderful review — thank you! 💙✨ We’re so happy to hear that you had such a great evening with SK. Finding the Aurora is always an adventure, but having a guide who is passionate about both the hunt and sharing her knowledge can make the experience even more special. And what a fantastic reward at the end of the night — dancing Aurora! 🌌 We’ll be sure to share your kind words with SK. We’re sure she’ll be delighted to know that you enjoyed both her guidance and the conversations along the way. Thank you for spending your evening with Book Lapland. We’re thrilled that you got to take home such a magical memory from Lapland! 💫

    The best experience

    Our guide, Ilker, was fantastic. Due to weather conditions, we had to travel until around 2:00 AM, but the aurora was truly beautiful, making it an amazing experience.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! 🌌 We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the Aurora hunt with Ilker. It sounds like it was a long night, but we’re happy that the beautiful Northern Lights made the extra effort worthwhile! We’ll definitely pass your kind words on to Ilker. He’ll be very happy to know that you appreciated his dedication throughout the night. Thank you for joining us and for choosing Book Lapland. We hope the memories of that special night in Lapland stay with you for a long time! ✨💙

    Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rovaniemi.

    How much does Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund cost?

    +

    Prices start at $182 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 Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 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 Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 90 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 884 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Rovaniemi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund?

    +

    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 Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund?

    +

    Around 309 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund 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: Northern Lights Tour, 100% Guarantee with Free Photos, Rovaniemi: Korouoma Canyon & Frozen Waterfalls Tour with BBQ. 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.

    What is included in Rovaniemi: Northern Lights Hunt Max 8 + Pro Photos & 100% Refund?

    +

    Included: Northern Lights viewing - 100% money-back guarantee; All fees and taxes; Pickup & drop-off within 10km of Rovaniemi city center; Professional photography with photos (unlimited); and Meteorological Observations.
