We invite you to a night dedicated to searching for that frail beauty called Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights. With Vidar, our professional photographer and local guide, you'll get plenty of attention and tips on how to capture the best possible photos of the Aurora Borealis. During the tour he will share stories about Troll, and its legends and myths.
Of course, you are welcome to join our tour with or without a camera. Our guide will also take photos of the aurora to share. We provide you with all the gear needed (winter suits and dry boots), and like this you can fully enjoy this tour, even if it is freezing cold outside.
Later in the evening our guide will take your portrait and send it to you via email. We will spend plenty of time under the open sky; we will not miss anything up there! Come with us on a truly amazing adventure.

Do not look any further, this is THE best tour operator if you come to Tromsø for an unforgettable Northern Light experience . More then the price worth, they really know how to find the light despite weather and clouds, on top you see beautiful landscapes by night, have a bonfire if conditions aloud, they take photos and a very skilled to teach you how to take photos of the amazing sky yourself. This is the difference between business (bigger companies) and passion and local knowledge (Creative vacations) . I have been to different tours and different companies; would anytime book a tour with them. Even if you some days can see the aurora on your own, this is a totally different experience not to miss out. Best recommendations . GO :)

Incredible experience with Noemi, a basic excursion planned in a small group of 10 that, thanks to a small mistake, became a privileged moment with 3. An exceptional Northern Lights hunter, a quiet basic evening with no real activity became an unforgettable evening with a mountain of Northern Lights visible to the naked eye, which we could photograph countless times thanks to our wonderful guide. Thanks a lot again to her and to the agency Creative vacations who knew how to take care of a slight mistake and turn it into a wonderful and unforgettable moment. We return to France with memories full of eyes. Laury and Greg (the bride and groom)

We did a Northern Lights Private tour, two families (6 people). We were picked up at our home by Mattia, a young, extremely kind enthusiast of northern lights and astronomy in general. We were lucky with a clear sky. Mattia brought us to a light-less beautiful little fjord about an hour from Tromso. We loved the fact that Mattia made us walk a few tenths of meters away from the road to reach a super-quiet sea side so that we were not bothered by the few cars passing by. We fully enjoyed amazing Northern Lights lying down on the snow, supported by a nice bonfire and some food. Mattia made us several beautiful pictures that he shared with us the day after (at no additional fee). Fully recommended!

Auroras tour with Creative Vacations has been a spectacular experience. The team has been very friendly and professional, you can see that they love the Arctic and infected us with their enthusiasm. Matía, our guide, looked for the best places to see auroras and made some great photos. Thank you very much Silvia, Vidart and Matía. I will be back soon and repeat with you for sure!! ;-)

We started off from the city center, and lucky for us the sky was clear on the coast, where our guide, Vidar decided to take us. He took the time to explain the plan for the night, our chances and what we can expect. He chose to stop in a stunning location, a beautiful secluded fjord with the nearby mountains, and no one else around us (small group of 6 people) This is really why I chose them We got lucky with the northern lights, and even the Milky Way on top of that! Vidar has a lot of knowledge of the region and knew troll stories to entertain us around the bonfire (and the food was welcomed!), the suits and equipment came in handy since it's sometimes hard to wait for a long time without moving too much. Great pictures too, his advices as a professional photographer were very helpful to capture great shots! Thank you again!!

Although it was more expensive than other tours, it was more than worth it. First, if the weather is bad in tromso, we'll take you to a location where you can see the Northern Lights (even if it's a two-hour or more journey each way). Second, the tour is small group, so the guide spends a lot of time with you. Third, the guide is incredibly enthusiastic about taking photos. On the day of the tour, the Northern Lights were completely hidden in Tromso due to clouds, but we traveled all the way to the Finnish border and witnessed not only the Northern Lights but also their dancing. I'm Korean. I think a photo that satisfies Koreans speaks volumes. Highly recommended.
