Incredible friendly captain and crew. Very insightful as well. Will help you find the aurora once in a spot that he knows will be visible. The food is excellent and filling. Overall, a very accommodating and experienced experience.

The Oceana Stella was in immaculate condition- due to the efforts of Captain Kenner & his wife Sachi. Both were incredibly kind, helpful, and friendly. We could tell that they were invested in bringing a wonderful experience to our family. The Captain’s enthusiasm in siting the Aurora Borealis was contagious! You MUST try the Reindeer stew. We thought we’d be handed a paper cup with a few spoonfuls of- No! Sachi set the table and brought us a huge bowl of stew, with garlic bread. DELICIOUS! And coffee, tea & hot cocoa weee free to enjoy. Finally - you haven’t lived until you have searched for the Northern Lights, while sitting in a hot tub - North of the Arctic Circle. I highly recommend this tour. Heartfelt Thanks to Captain Kemmet & his wife Sachi. My family would happily take this tour again.

The boat is very cute, the food delicious and the hosts lovely. Watching the auroras from a hot tub is a unique experience.

First we would like the captain again for taking us out during a such an intense snowstorm! We were able to catch clear pockets of sky and stars. Soaking in the hot tub while floating on the Norwegian Sea with the heavy snowfall was an amazing experience. I felt just like the Japanese macaque. Lol We all had a great time aboard and it was warm and cozy under deck when we wanted to get out of the snow. The stew was hot and delicious and it was nice to pick what time we wanted to eat. It was easy to see how much the ship is loved and cared for, it was beautiful with the old wood interior and was comfortable. Everyone had a fantastic night and will remember it forever.

Had a lovely time cruising with Sachi and Kenneth on the Northern Lights cruise. Met some lovely people and tried reindeer stew for the first time which was beautiful. Unfortunately we didn’t see any Northern Lights but it was lovely to meet Sachi and Kenneth and would highly recommend this cruise if you want a small group of 12 or less and there is a hot tub on board if you want to take a dip.

Amazing! The boat captain and his wife are absolutely lovely. We were scheduled time in the hot tub so we were able to enjoy the experience privately, not in a group as we originally thought. Showers, dinner, warm drinks and snacks were provided and all was wonderful. If you are looking for a relaxing evening under the northern lights, do not pass this experience up!

One of the best experiences ever! The crew was very pleasant and knowledgeable. The hot tub underneath the northern lights was an out of this world experience, not to mention the food afterwards was delicious!! Would book again in the future!
