CANCELLATION : how does it work?
While other companies in Rovaniemi will take you to see clouds (or even snowfalls!) knowing that you have zero chance to see auroras, our Northern Lights tour automatically includes a cancellation possibility. You may then join the aurora tour only when the conditions are good enough!

• You have the possibility to request a cancellation until 14:00, local time (GMT+2). Please request it to info@nordicodyssey.net in due time. After that, full refund is not guaranteed.
• you will get a refund within 2-3 working days of your ticket. Please note that cancellation fees will however apply (25€/adult; 15€/child); they will be used to cover the administrative and banking fees. The refund does not cover other options nor clothes rental fees (5€) because the equipment will be reserved for you.
