You’ve decided to chase the Northern Lights in Abisko! You’ve read the glowing reviews, seen the amazing photos on our social media pages, and now you’re ready to experience the magic for yourself! You think: “That’s it. I’m going. I need to see that with my own eyes.”
You secure your flights and accommodation but then life gets busy and you decide to book your aurora tours next week.
Next week turns into next month. And by the time you come back to book your dream adventure in Abisko, your preferred dates are… fully booked.
We hate disappointing people but we’re a small, family-run company, and the demand to see the aurora, especially now near the solar maximum, is sky-high.
If you’re thinking about chasing the lights with us, here’s what you need to know (and how to avoid disappointment).
The Northern Lights Are Hot Right Now
Okay, maybe not “hot” in the tropical sense (you’ll still need a coat), but space weather is heating up. With the imminent peak of the solar cycle, we’re experiencing more geomagnetic activity, more solar flares, and… drumroll please… more epic aurora displays.
People all over the world want in on the action. So even our early-season tours are filling up well in advance. If you’ve been waiting for “the right time,” this is it.
Small Team, Big Demand
At Lights Over Lapland, we’re a small, passionate team dedicated to providing personalized experiences. Our commitment to quality over quantity means we keep our group sizes small, ensuring each guest receives the attention they deserve.
But this also means our availability is limited. With the increasing popularity of Abisko as a prime aurora destination and the added excitement of solar maximum, demand has skyrocketed. It’s not uncommon for our tours to be fully booked weeks, if not months, in advance.
Plan Ahead
We understand that spontaneity has its charm, but when it comes to witnessing the Northern Lights, planning ahead is crucial. Booking early not only secures your spot but also gives you peace of mind knowing that your itinerary is set. If your flights are booked, it’s time to book your aurora tour. If you’re still deciding between October or January, reach out. Our team is happy to talk you through your options and help you plan the right dates. You can email all your questions here: [email protected]. We also highly recommend you check out our Activity Calendar. This will give you all availability in real-time and serves as a great tool when planning your visit.
