5.00Piotr was fantastic and really enthusiastic. He clearly loves his job and is very good at it - a real asset to the company. He was informative, we got to see amazing northern lights and he even showed great patience and attention with more challenging guests who didn’t pay attention.
Great time for all.

5.00Wonderful tour. Karol was a great guide - informative, funny and knowledgeable. The Northern Lights co-operated and wete on display for us. Our tour was a 4x4 Sprinter so we had a small group. Karol took us to two places and we were the only group at both sotes. Karol took lots of pictures and we can't wait to see them. Hot chocolate and pastries hit the spot. Definitely recommend Nordur and the guide, Karol.
Great company
