About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- chunheia20240 contributionsWonderful experience with Beyond Arctic (w/Markus)Beyond Arctic is truly one of the best tour service providers! Me and my friend joined a tour, guided by Markus, on 28/9/2024. And here is our experience with Beyond Arctic: Pre-trip: We mistakenly booked the wrong tour date. Although the website stated that 'its not guaranteed to make changes', they were still so helpful and helped make date amendments accordingly and swiftly. Tour: The trip was amazing. On our way chasing Aurora, Markus kept explaining facts about Aurora and chatting with all of us, the vibe was great. In addition to Markus' passion, the trip was literally flawless. Despite exceeding the expected tour hours, Markus was still willing to bring us around to chase the gorgeous Aurora, which was really impressive! Post-trip: They sent us back a selective amount of photos without a watermark. When I realized there was a missing photo (that I was looking forward to), I sent them an email for it and they really sent that particular one photo to me, though with a watermark. But that was already unexpected, I thought they were going to ignore me LOL. In conclusion, our experience with Beyond Arctic was wonderful and I truly recommend Beyond Arctic to future visitors! Aurora spotted: Yes Equipment provided: Tripod Yes Photography service: Yes Food provided: Sausage (& vegetarian option) & marshmallow with campfire Language: English Duration: 1920 (from Santa Claus Village) to ~01:15 (Santa Claus Village, drop off in front of the hotel room)Written 23 October 2024
- 827dtw0 contributionsUnforgettable experience with Beyond ArcticI had an absolutely unforgettable experience with Beyond Arctic during the aurora hunting tour and reindeer farm visit! The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the Northern Lights, making sure we found the best possible location to witness this magical phenomenon. The chase itself was thrilling, and seeing the aurora in the Arctic wilderness was a once-in-a-lifetime moment. The visit to the reindeer farm was also a highlight, providing an authentic and educational insight.Written 18 October 2024

- jeremybT2841AN0 contributionsGreat Excursion from RovaniemiHighly recommend this tour to see the beauty of Lapland. Oren was a fantastic guide and really took care of us. Over the course of the trip, we did a few short hikes to different waterfalls, had a Finnish barbecue over a fire, and learned about north Finland all throughout. The autumn colors were in full force, so it was extremely gorgeous everywhere we went. I definitely recommend this hike for anyone interested.Written 14 October 2024

- GeorgiaJ130 contributionsRanua Wildlife Park Tour - Fun guides, great animals, beautiful park, worth the time and $Juho & Satu took good care of our group. They were delightful and so informative. They knew where the animals like to hide and seamlessly took professional pictures while maintaining the comfortable pace of the tour. They saved us a lot of time. This is a beautiful animal park where we saw healthy animals that we can't see on our own. Juho and Satu made it a very fun and exciting morning. Highly recommended.Written 9 October 2024

Wow. What a tour this is. My guide for this tour is Oren and has been wonderful during this tour. He explained the history of Rovaniemi, the water transit, founded spots that I had on my list to see and pointed out great photo oppertunities. Oren was very detailed about the sites that we visited along the way, plus he is a great photographer. Beyond Arctice is fortunate to have him on their team!

It was an incredible experience. Our guide Oren Singer was excellent; Friendly, knowledgeable and a very good photographer.
We were lucky enough to see the northern lights and Oren did his best to give us an unimaginable night. He took us to two different locations and made sure we had enough photos at each.
He was very prepared with hot juice, a warm bonfire and sausages for everyone. In addition to sharing all his knowledge and tips with the group.
Although the Northern Lights will not always be visible, the experience is 100% worth it.
SUPER recommended.

Our guide Oren picked us up at the hotel and the three of us started our tour. He took us to the most beautiful photo spots in Rovaniemi. From start to finish we had a lot of fun and Oren shared a lot about the area. We didn't have any time pressure and were always able to help decide where we wanted to go. All in all, it was a very successful trip that we can definitely recommend. Thanks again Oren, we couldn't have asked for a better guide.

So, mom and two kids... I dont recomend this because its not worthy. When you got the photos, you will be shocked. Although they are telling you that you will get a hughe file through mail, ćyou will get 20 photos all togeather. There are duplicates, and photos with other tourists that were with you, the rest are to be honest - nothing. Fortunately, i took photos also with my phone, my photos and photos of this young lady are a hughe difference, and i am happy that i did her job.. Profy photos?? You dont see faces of kids, half body, some blurry, behind is nothing, you cant recognize nothing that is connecting you to this wonderful place... Its not harsh, its realistic. So, this totally failed. Its money spend for nothing much, maybe for a nice chat. Hope you will improve. I was here for a week, there are people who work very hard for money spent here by tourists, and after their offer, tourist feels happy and satisfied. And i guess this was dissapointment and waste. Too bad.
In their decription stands "tour will take you to key locations around Rovaniemi City to photograph some of its most iconic landmarks and natural sights."... We have been to three places, we didnt even saw the town, and i dont believe that you have 3 iconic places around Rovaniemi... Further more "guided by a professional photographer who can teach you some new tricks in photography and share information about Rovaniemi".... New tricks? Guide suggeested only one to us - below the tree, and she ask other tourist in the car about her camera and didnt comment further. Informations about Rovaniemi? I heard some about the brige and the skii track.. Not once did I hear - You will take photos by yourselves, and I will take few photos on the side. Did we see the Rovaniemi? No... Did we see the best places in town, no... We saw three chek points. So... Although photografer is a really sweet young lady, of all those photos are low job in every way. Well... Dissapointing. Most photos are "not" Rovaniemi.... Its some snow behind, and it can be anywhere else in the world. Photos should be unique for your city, most of this photos can be in Bosnia, Italy, Austria, anywhere.... for all ppl who will see them, know. You are paying for nothing. Avoid, because you will see better by yourself or other company.
