What To Expect
Tromso
Begin your evening tour in search of the Northern Lights with a convenient pickup from city center of Tromsø.. You'll embark on a nighttime hunt for the sometimes elusive Aurora Borealis. Although Norwegian nights are cold and it can take up to several hours to see the colorful light show, the wait is worth it. You're provided with a thermal suit, a snow-side bonfire, and hot drinks and snacks to keep warm along the way. Your 8-passenger tour vehicle takes you deep into the darkness with a small group and a professional photographer as your guide. In addition to snapping your own photos, your guide will take pictures of you under the lights and be of assistance to help with your own equipment, including provided tripods; a Canon is available for a fee. Professional photos taken during the tour are later sent to you via email or social media. After a stop for dinner, your 7-hour tour ends with hotel drop-off in Tromsø after midnight.

5.00I had a great experience with Enjoy the Arctic! Alan was a great guide, super knowledgeable and did his absolute most to find us a good spot to see the lights. We had a fire and warm drinks to keep warm while waiting. Photos were sent to us promptly and are really high quality.
Our Dedicated Tour Guide Did His Utmost to Find the Northern Lights

4.00Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate even though our tour operator tried his utmost to locate the Northern Lights during our tour. In fact, our tour guide went south, then north, and late into the evening there was a slight opening in Finland when we saw a glimpse of the Northern Lights until they disappeared by cloud cover. It was an extremely windy evening when we stopped in Finland, and our tour guide graciously moved the minibus we were in to block the harsh wind. We got back to our hotel around 3AM. Kudos to our tour guide for doing his best to find the Northern Lights. I'm giving this tour 4.5 stars because we were only given a week or so to download the tour guides pictures which is not an adequate amount of time for those like us who were not due home within that time period to download the pictures. Two weeks to a month is a more realistic time period.
Memorable and Thoroughly Enjoyable

5.00Our tour with Alan our guide, driver and photographer, from Enjoy the Arctic, was memorable and thoroughly enjoyable. Our chase took us to a few locations, including Kvaløya and Kårvik, where we witnessed magnificent aurora borealis displays in the warmth of an open fire, while enjoying cake and hot chocolate. Alan is experienced, knowledgeable, and professional. He did his best to ensure we were not disappointed and drove to several locations, where he took many photographs of us under the northern lights. Our photographs were available for download a few days later. We highly recommend this tour.
Fantastic Experience

5.00We had an amazing trip with Alan. He was engaging, interesting and knowledgeable about the Northern Lights. He absolutely did his best to find the optimum spot to where we might see lights (never a guarantee with nature!). We were unbelievably lucky to see a beautiful light show. Can highly recommend this tour, just be realistic and remember that the guide can't magic up the Northern Lights if the conditions aren't right!
Fantastic guide!

5.00Alan was fantastic, and I would highly recommend this tour! We had a very low chance of seeing the lights with the combination of low activity and cloudy skies. However, Alan was very dedicated to trying his best and making this a great experience. Just as we were about to call it a night and depart back to Tromso, Alan took one final look to make be sure, and luckily, we were able to see a little bit of the lights and get some pictures! The lights were very faint but still nice and the pictures we got back were nice. It was a very long night, with us not getting back to Tromso until 3:30am, but I enjoyed every second of it. It was nice to sit around the fire and chat with others and enjoy tea and a LARGE piece of cake.
