An incredible experience

5.00An incredible experience! Our guide, Andys, drove us for over 1h 30 minutes to reach a site with open sky in the cloudy night. The lights appeared slowly but then performed 1-2 minutes of an incredible dancing show above our heads. We highly recommend it!
Northern Lights Experience

4.00Our guide was very friendly and drove us 2 hours north of Tromso to chase the Northern Lights. We did not see the Aurora that night due to a thick layer of clouds and snow, but the guide provided us with a lovely experience nonetheless. We enjoyed coffee / tea and muffins in the wild and walked on a frozen lake. All in all it was a good experience even though we did not see the Aurora that night.

5.00As a solo female traveler visiting Tromso, I was a little nervous about booking a Northern Lights tour, but this company exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I was picked up, I felt completely safe and well taken care of.. They constantly monitored the weather and drove us to the best possible viewing spot. When the lights finally appeared, it was absolutely magical! I highly recommend this company, especially for solo female travelers looking for a safe, organized, and unforgettable Northern Lights experience.
Top Northern lights Chase - 9th Feb 2026 with mini bus tour

5.00Organizers who know what they are doing! We drove south two hours south of Tromso in search of clear skies. Found it and was able to enjoy the Northern lights show for two hours. Took a lot of pictures and the guide was very kind and gave us insights into how Northern lights occurs. We were in a small van total 6 people, even though it's a bit expensive than the big bus tour, it was more private and had no disturbance. We were provided with Thermal suits and also some coffee/tea and muffins. Would definitely recommend :)

5.00A must do at least once before you die. Haha Great experience, obviously, you cannot predict nature, we were lucky to see many auroras, not like other people post , amazing , filling the sky of light or lot of dancing. But enough to appreciate just by looking how amazing they are. Our guide was nice , funny and tried to explain the phenomena with scientific details.
Best way to go aurora hunting

5.00It was worth to trust this highly professional aurora hunters. They know all places and what to watch for, I would have never had this great experience if I had tried on my own. I was lucky to catch a very good night. They could have stopped in the first place and call it a day. Instead they showed us three different places and overachieved. Andis is a great photographer and gave me very useful tricks to improve the pictures I was taking with my camera. The pictures he took were provided on the following day. They are great, much better than mine.
Worth it !

5.00It was an amazing experience, our guide Nico went beyond all expectations. His knowledge, kindness and expertise was shown during the activity. He took us to different locations chasing the auroras and open sky, sharing information and letting us know how the phenomenon occurs, he knew when to move and amazing breathtaking spots. I highly recommend it. We booked next day trip with him and I will do it again.
