5.00We were traveling with Alberto and Angel - both were super nice and made the tour special. We were the only bus in a beautiful, spacious place from which we could admire the beautiful aurora borealis. Thank you for that!

5.00The whole trip was just perfect. Our guides Roberto, Dimitri and not forgetting our bus driver have allowed us an unforgettable time. We got a lot of information about Tromsø, the Northern Lights and much more on the way out, around the campfire and in between. We arrived at our spot with the Northern Lights and even experienced “the dancing Aurora”. Our guides made a campfire for us and professional photos of everyone under the Northern Lights ✨ I will take unforgettable beautiful moments with me. Thanks♥️
Brilliant!

5.00The bus ride with toilet was pleasantly warm. We were already after about 1:30h at the destination and saw incredibly beautiful northern lights. You could stand in front of the camera if you wanted to and be photographed with the Northern Lights in the background. The bus was always open so you could warm up.
Incredible evening. What.A.Light.Show. !!!

5.00Pick-up was professionally arranged and very easy. Guides and professional photographer (Gorgi and wife) were excellent and had several plans arranged. We were very lucky and plan A was all that was needed! Headed out to a beach near Brensholmen and got the most incredible show for hours. Camp fires, hot chocolate and biscuits to end with too. Magical night I'll never forget. Thank you so much and to the very safe coach driver. 100% recommend.
