Northern lights / evening time Safari Guide - Lapland Safaris

Lapland Staff is looking for Northern Lights/evening time safari guides for the winter season 2025-2026 to Lapland Safaris Rovaniemi. 

The most important task of a Northern Lights/evening safari guide is to take our international guests to the dark, but ever-enchanting wintery nature of Lapland both by bus, as well as snowmobile. While waiting for the mesmerizing performance of the Northern lights, the guide will tell the guests about the magical phenomenon in question, as well as the nature of Lapland.   

As a guide, your workdays consist of preparing for the safari programs, meeting the guests before the safaris, as well as taking care of the clothing of your guests. As the title reflects, Northern lights / evening time safari guides work mainly in the evening, but the possibility for additional work conducted during mornings or daytime is provided as well.  

One of the most essential parts of the job is to help dress our guests with winter clothes, and all our guides work as part of our equipment team. You will help our guests dress up properly before each safari and after the activity you will take care of the clothes that you provided such as overalls, socks, boots and gloves. Whatever you do, every day you get to see the excitement on your guests’ faces as they prepare for new and unique experiences! 

Lapland Safaris organizes training for new guides before the start of employment. The training covers required guide skills, such as first aid, cold protection, problem solving and outdoor/wilderness skills.

In addition, please note that in order to work in Finland, an EU-citizenship/passport or valid working permit to Finland is required. 

Kindly notice, that we we only process applications received through our application form from our website, and we do not accept applications received by e-mail or other channels.
