You’ll need a Schengen Visa to fly to Rovaniemi ,The process can be started as early as 6 months before departure and you will have to attend the appointment in person.

If you have applied for a Schengen Visa in recent times and have already done your biometrics, an agent can submit the documents on your behalf.

We have an in-house visa team who will consult you and assist you through the entire journey over calls & email.

We don't offer airport transfers to the hotel because of the different arrival times of Bucketlister. The easiest way is to get a taxi from the Rovaniemi airport to the Hotel. You can choose from local taxis or Uber - whatever works better price-wise. We do recommend getting in touch with your fellow travellers on the WhatsApp group to coordinate if anyone is landing around the same time and share a cab to the hotel with them.

Approximately 50-60 Euros per day for food & drinks

We recommend having a read-through of the itinerary above, and getting in touch if you have specific questions on fitness here.

Northern Lights is a natural phenomenon and is difficult to predict where will they appear. You can see the Northern Lights from late August to May, but October and April happens to the best time. The night skies will be much darker, improving the chances but please note that sightings are never guaranteed.

Please be aware that the itinerary, experiences, and hotels are subject to change. These changes are rare but can happen with little notice due to availability, poor weather, seasonal changes, or other circumstances beyond our control – but we’ll always do our best to ensure it has little impact on your experience. From time to time, we may also make changes to your itinerary to try out new ideas and keep things fresh and exciting which we will always try and communicate to you.
