  The tour was great. Our guide Lena was great. She explained some things to us and answered our questions. Right at the first place we were lucky enough to see Northern Lights and also at the second place we could observe them. Because we saw the Northern Lights very early on, Lena drove us to a viewpoint from which we had a great view of Kiruna at night. The whole evening was fantastic.

• Great tour

  It was great. Our guide Lena was very nice and explained a lot to us. Because we could observe the Northern Lights very early on, she drove with us to a lookout point. From there you had a great view of the night city. That was great.

• A great ‘locals’ experience!

  We booked this tour super last minute (our plans changed due to weather) and they went above and beyond to cater for us. The guide was fantastic, knew a lot about weather and showed us extra local things around the area with the clearest skies that night. Unfortunately we didn’t see the lights as that was just the weather, but it was still so worth it, our guide made it so special by taking us on a frozen lake, giving us facts on the local area and finding local wildlife, it was a lot of fun! Thanks guys!

  The ticket said the tour starts at 9pm and they would pick us up at our hotel. They informed us after 8pm that pick-up was earlier. We missed them and although we called at 9pm they were not coming back. So no tour, really disappointing.

  Unfortunately, our booked Northern Lights tour was not delivered. The pickup time was confirmed between 8:00 and 9:00 pm, but we did not receive any arrival notification during that time. Afterward, we were informed that the guide had already left. Communication before the tour was also very limited. Overall, a disappointing experience.

  Explore Kiruna gave us a a phenomenal experience chasing the Northern Lights - We set off at 9pm from our hotel in the Old town of Kiruna heading NE past the Jukkasjarvi village and set up near a small lake. The experience was absolute awesome. The cost worth it for the 3 hours we were out - we stopped at 4 sites each offering a different view with Aurora transforming to magical colors of green, gold, reddish. Photo shows site with best views although the Aurora faded and emerged with time. Unforgettable

• Captured the Northern Lights!

  This was a great tour, Alex was a terrific guide and willing to help everyone with camera settings to capture the Northern lights. Upon pickup at our hotel he had hot tea waiting for us onboard his van. He was very conversational and answered any questions. He even took photos of us and everyone traveling and sent them to us afterwards. That was nice. The only criticism I had was the long walk (15 minutes in deep snow) to visit a spot he wanted to light a little fire at. I really don’t think that was needed as we had plenty of beautiful spots in between to capture amazing views. All in all we do plan on going with Alex again when we visit Kiruna and the ice hotel again.

• Northern Lights hunting trip

  This is a summary of our 10 days. A plane to Stockholm, for safety one night at Malardrottningen, boats hotel, on the side of Gamla sta. Amazing this hotel, there is everything, cheap, and especially at 10' max. from the central station via metro, 150 meters from the hotel leaving on the right side of the station. Evening and next day in Stockholm, visit state museums, free. Only disappointment, 30 years ago there was a museum exhibiting an entire Drakkar and bodies found in the bogs, I no longer found it. In the evening, overnight train to Kiruna with exchange in Boden. 1st class, shower private toilet, breakfast included and access to the lounge a few hours before departure. Impeccable Train, Service, etc... and not much more expensive via interrail. Day 3 arriving in Kiruna around 2:00 PM, shuttle new station to city, slight problem, or buy bus tickets to go to hotel? The driver, took us free on the way but also on the return. During 3 days, incredible walks in the city, light dawn sight of the hotel, day, horseback ride in the forest, saw Elk, Reindeer, Hares big enough, Elk and Hare also in town, then, night dog sled excursion, beautiful, you drive if you can say, yourself. Unfortunately that evening, despite the 20`, wet and foggy weather. So much for the dawn, the dogs compensated. The next day late afternoon, leaving for Stockholm, via Uppsala, the we had seen on the internet that there was a Drakkar, but also not found. Visit museum and city. To finish return Stockholm, end of the visit on Djugardland, unmissable Vasa museum, for Abba enthusiasts museum, Vikings museum, history of Sweden from the Middle Ages, and museums along the quays of the in Gamla stan. Very amazing points for us, shopping galleries on three or four floors, very large, and we could live there, great restaurant, reasonable price, you have some or at the entrance you take an organic plate, put what you want, many vegetables and meats, and pay by weight, 3€ 100gr. There are tables and chairs all over the center to settle in and eat quietly. Then do not forget the station, where you could also live, direct access to trains, metros, city buses and inter city buses, widely used everywhere and cheap. The best memories are hard to choose, but still Sweden is less green than I thought. Plus, we never needed money, everything via card, ticket purchase, reservations, etc... Everything via smartphone, we would have liked to know before, very convenient phone ticket and quick access to the mu paying. In short we return e early February 2021, but let's push a peak in Norway via the article train, to see Tromso and take a whale and killer whale excursion, there is even way to swim with killer whales if calm sea. If possible, I try, my wife does not?? Summary, I did it in summer via interrail in 1981, I just did it in winter, and both are very well and worth it. Budget for two all inclusive, even organizing, for two, between 2,800 and 3000 €. With the advantage of paying one month for the plane, the next the train, then hotels where excursions (horse in the woods, half day with lunch, 190 € per person, a little expensive). Sled, 140€ per person. Aurora hunting in van, 120€ per person.
