Arctic experiences in the heart of Lapland! On the menu: guided experiences and seasonal activities for small groups in all seasons of the year: dog sledding, northern lights viewing, reindeer farm, snowshoeing and Rovaniemi, from Santa's village to field hockey. The plus: Tuomo, the manager, is very friendly and will pass on his love of the region.

Here are a few activities:

Experience the Northern Lights from Rovaniemi in summer and autumn. Observe the colorful halos of light in the Lappish night with coffee and sausages around the fire. Possibility of heating a traditional wooden sauna. Duration: 5 hours.

Northern Lights Experiences winter and spring. Experience the Northern Lights while enjoying a picnic, dinner, sauna or outdoor spa. You can also try your hand at swimming in icy waters, or extend the night by sleeping in Villa Suopursu, a traditional log cabin. And, of course, we'll teach you how to take photos of those extraordinary nocturnal phenomena known as the Northern Lights. Duration: between 3 hours and 2 days/1 night.

Arctic fishing. Feel the atmosphere of Lapland and spend a day fishing in a frozen lake. For 3 hours, dressed in a cold-weather fishing suit and accompanied by a guide, try your hand at fishing. All this next to a fire, fruit juice and coffee.

Husky safari. Ride with the huskies, learn about their way of life on the husky farm and get to know them better. At the end, juice and coffee in a heated hut. Duration: 2h30 including transport, farm visit and 30-minute walk. If you want to go further, the walk can continue into the forest, with rest in a traditional log cabin. Allow 3h30 in total.

Ayer fuimos en búsqueda de auroras boreales y la verdad que acertamos eligiendo Johka! Nuestro guía Joona fue súper agradable, muy simpático y siempre atento a lo que necesitamos. Nos sacó muchas fotos y nos llevó casi hasta Suecia para ver las luces! Estábamos solos, lejos de grupos masificados! Una experiencia muy recomendable ????

We went on the Northern Lights Photography Hunt with Joona and absolutely loved it! He's an awesome guide - fun, passionate about his job, and really goes out of his way to ensure everyone has an amazing experience. Joona drove us far away from the crowds to a quiet spot where we could really enjoy the northern lights, which we really appreciated. He explained all about the lights, how to use the forecast apps, and why predicting them is tricky. Plus, he took incredible photos for us and was always ready to snap more. The whole night felt special, all thanks to Joona.

We were looking for a tour away from the mass tourism scene, led by a company that cares about preserving Lapland, not just making a profit. Johka tours and Joona delivered exactly that!

We are very happy we chose them for our adventure!

Absolutely amazing!!! Can not recommend the aurora hunting highly enough. Our guide Joona was 10/10 fantastic. He was passionate, knowledgable and a little bit of a miracle worker. If there is an aurora to be found Joona will find it! Also tour won't operate if there is 0% chance of seeing lights so you can book with confidence although mother nature always plays a role. Nothing is 100% guaranteed.

Our family had the most wonderful experiences with this company. The quality of service was excellent, we were comfortable and informed throughout. We booked Ice fishing, Reindeer farm visit and Northern lights hunt. All the activities were truly authentic and so were our guides Joona and Tuomo. They shared so much of their knowledge and culture with us. This is the only kind of experience you want when you come here and we can not thank you enough for making it so special. We were absolutely enchanted!
