      About this trip

      Experience the elusive Northern Lights in the heart of the wilderness… Finland is one of the best places to witness the dancing Northern Lights. Spend 5 days surrounded by Lapland's majestic forests blanketed in powdery white snow, far away from the city lights. Our trip is at the best time of the year and place to see the Northern Lights thanks to the remote northern location of the aurora cabins, clear skies with limited clouds, and long dark nights; perfect for this bucket list trip!


      Snowy sleigh rides: Journey through magical snow-dusted landscapes by sleigh, get up close and personal with reindeer & huskies, and snowmobile through the white powdery wilderness!


      Igloo cabins with your own sauna: Warm up in your own personal sauna after a day of snowy adventures and stargaze from the comfort of your own bed in an aurora cabin as you await the Northern Lights. 


      All-inclusive in Lapland: Most meals and all activities are included in the trip price. Enjoy a worry-free vacation where all you have to do is enjoy!

      Noteworthy countries to visit, however, the 4 flights (3 domestic & 1 international) are a bit too much for the duration of this trip e.g., given the distance between Siem Reap and Phnom Penh -- travel by minibus would have been a better option (also, providing a chance to visit a few villages along the way). The local guides knowledge-base were not consistent throughout this trip and definitely could be improved.

      A magical trip of a lifetime with a great tour guide, Marvil, and group of people. The activities were so much fun; the Aurora cabin was special & food was really good—even the reindeer! And the best part….we saw the Northern Lights 2 nights! 🥰

      This was a wonderful experience and I am so lucky to be with a group of amazing people on this trip! Marvil was fun, energetic and friendly, she had great positive energy. I loved the aurora cabins and would recommend this itinerary!

      Globedrifters is truly a first class outfit and the trip to Vietnam and Cambodia was absolutely amazing and unforgettable. Vietnam and Cambodia are wonderful countries with incredible things to see that should be on anyone’s bucket list. The people, food, and sites are just magnetic. And if you are going to hit these two countries, I would VERY HIGHLY recommend choosing GlobeDrifters - they were there to meet our every need, had amazing tour guides, took us to great restaurants, and had a great itinerary that allowed us to see the sites but also gave us time to explore on our own. It’s no wonder that for several of the attendees this was their 4 or 5th trip using GlobeDrifters (it was my first and I will use them again). Happy travels!!

      I thoroughly enjoyed my Thailand trip, which has a good mix of natural scenery, water activities, cultural exchange, city temples and markets. The tropical fruits and food were delicious! Our guides, Issy and Sandy, did their best to help us. Issy went above and beyond to help my vegan diet. I cannot thank her enough. Thanks to Globe Drifters for the wonderful memories!
