Looking for an unforgettable northern lights experience? Then our glass igloo holidays in Finland are hard to beat.
On a northern lights igloo holiday, you’ll stay in a luxurious, glass-roofed cabin, with its own private sauna. You can drift off to sleep under a starry night sky — or stay awake to see the northern lights from the comfort of your bed.

Glass igloo holidays in Finland: FAQs
When is the best time of year to book a northern lights igloo in Finland?
The northern lights are visible in Finnish Lapland from September to March. But if you like the idea of winter activities, it’s best to visit from December to March.
During winter, the nights are long. So you have an excellent chance of seeing the aurora borealis. You also get to see Finland transformed into a snowy wonderland.
If you’re unsure when to book your northern lights igloo holiday in Finland, just get in touch with the Aurora Nights team. We can recommend the best month to visit.

Is it cold inside a glass igloo?
No, it’s not. No matter how cold it gets outside, your glass igloo accommodation will be warm and cosy.
A thermal glass roof keeps your cabin warm and melts any snow, so you get crystal clear views of the night sky. The glass igloos on our northern lights holidays also come with a sauna or log fire.
Will there be a bathroom in my Finnish glass igloo?
Yes. Apart from the glass roof, your northern lights igloo is exactly like a normal hotel room. There’s a bathroom with a shower, a comfortable bed, tea and coffee-making facilities and solid walls to ensure your total privacy.
How much do igloo holidays in Finland cost?
The price of a northern lights igloo holiday depends on how many nights you’ll be staying and the time of year you choose to visit.
Glass igloo cabins tend to be more expensive than a Finnish log cabin or a hotel room. So if you want to maximise your budget, you can stay a night or two in a glass igloo before experiencing another style of accommodation.
Share your budget with the Aurora Nights team and we’ll recommend the best igloo options for your trip.
What’s included in a Finland glass igloo package?

What can you see and do on glass igloo holidays in Finland?
During your stay at the igloo village, you can enjoy a host of incredible Arctic experiences. Here’s a taste of what you can see and do:
- Embark on a snowmobile adventure through pristine taiga forests. Or travel the old-fashioned way, mushing a team of huskies.
- Revitalise your body and mind. Plunge into an icy river before warming up in your own riverside sauna.
- Escape into nature. Go on a snowshoeing or cross-country skiing excursion, with only the sound of crunching snow underfoot.
- Venture into the Arctic wilderness with your northern lights guide, warming yourself with hot drinks by the fire as you wait for the aurora to appear.
- Make like a local. Try your hand at ice fishing before cooking your catch on an open fire.
- Head to a local reindeer farm to meet the animals and learn about Sámi culture. Then, take a magical sleigh ride through snowy scenery.
- Relax back at the igloo village. Sample traditional Finnish cuisine and warm up after winter activities by the roaring log fire.
Can I customise my Finland igloo holiday?
Absolutely. Every Aurora Nights holiday can be tailored to suit your requirements.
You can stay in a combination of aurora igloo, log cabin and hotel accommodation. You can also extend your northern lights holiday to include other destinations, within Finnish Lapland and beyond.

What should I wear on a northern lights igloo holiday?
During winter, temperatures in Finnish Lapland don’t rise above freezing. So people dress for warmth and comfort.
We provide warm Arctic outerwear for the duration of your trip. This includes a snow jacket, thermal overalls, snow boots and Arctic gloves.
We recommend that you bring thermals, lots of layers, a warm hat, gloves and thick socks. You’ll also need a winter coat for travel to and from the airport.

Northern lights tour reviews
We booked with Aurora for a short winter break to celebrate an event. We wanted something special and that’s what we got. Clear information was backed up with straightforward booking detail, and we had a super, holiday with no complications.
The holiday exceeded my expectations and I will use Aurora in the future. Thank you!
My wife and I had an awesome and memorable trip to Iceland thanks to Alex at Aurora Nights. Alex tailored the itinerary to exactly what we wanted to see and chose excellent hotels to stay at. We totally enjoyed the city of Reykjavik and the many beautiful waterfalls. He went above and beyond to not only recommend sights to see around the Golden Circle and Ring Road, but also mapped it out so we were prepared to drive through the country during unpredictable weather and road conditions. And we were especially pleased to see the Northern Lights on our visit. Alex was very flexible to make changes to our plans and choosing the wonderful Sky Lagoon to replace our tickets for the Blue Lagoon due to the closure from the volcanic activity. We highly recommend Alex and Aurora Nights.
An amazing trip and excellent service provided by all involved. Great value for money too. Food was excellent. Accommodation was wonderful and the trips booked were outstanding. An amazing trip
Cannot thank this company enough. Our break to Iceland was the second time we’ve let them organise everything for us and once again they didn’t disappoint. Everything ran seamlessly and the organised tours were wonderful. This company knows what they are doing. If you want to experience the geysers, the volcano, the northern lights and all the other exciting things that Iceland has to offer then this is the company to use.
