Northern Lights Chase in a small group
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
Welcome to an Northern Lights chase designed for people who prefer smaller groups and more personalized service.
This evening excursion departs from downtown Tromsø but which direction we drive depends on the latest weather forecast. To experience the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis), the main thing we are searching for is clear skies well away from the bright lights of the city. Sometimes we drive out to the coast, sometimes inland and other times past three fjords up to the Finnish border. We leave the final decision as late as possible to maximize your chases of achieving what you came for – seeing the majestic Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) dancing in the sky.
When we find the perfect spot, we park the minibus and wait for the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) to appear. In the meantime, we help you adjust your camera so you can take good photos of the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis). We also serve hot drinks and biscuits while keeping an eye on the sky.

5.00Our Northern Lights safari in Tromsø was truly unforgettable. Our guide Stefan was incredibly friendly, passionate and knew exactly where to go. Thanks to him, we saw stunning Northern Lights dancing across the sky in beautiful, colorful waves — an absolutely magical experience. The comfortable minibus, hot cocoa and cookies, and the fact that photos were taken and shared online the very next day made the tour even better. I would recommend this experience to everyone — an absolute must-do when visiting Tromsø!
Best Northern Lights Chase!

5.00We had the best experience with our tour guide Peter on this Northern Lights chase! He went above and beyond to ensure we not only saw the lights, but also got amazing photos and have an overall enjoyable time. My partner proposed to me at one of our stops, and Peter did an incredible job of taking pictures of us with the lights. We will never forget this day!

Without wasting any time, he made sure we witnessed the Aurora Borealis. It’s very hard to find a correct and knowledgeable guide.

5.00My family and I joined a Northern Lights tour with NLT on October 12, 2025. Our guide was Peter. When it started raining as we got on the bus, I secretly thought, “Guess we won’t get to see the Northern Lights tonight.” Peter was such a great guide — he made sure we were all comfortable on the bus and kept adjusting the temperature so we’d stay warm. At the first stop, there were lots of clouds, so we could only see a faint light. But Peter didn’t give up. He drove us to another spot farther away, and there we finally saw beautiful green and red Northern Lights. Everyone got amazing photos! My family and I were so excited and deeply impressed. Thanks to Peter and NLT for making our dream of seeing the Northern Lights come true.
amazing

5.00Really Really Very Amazing!!! The Light Tour is Really Amazing Jack very friendly humor, the focus is very professional, explains the production of ultra light Also describe some conditions that need to see the polar light!! Thanks to Jack's professionalism, you can see the lights in the first place, even on the way back Also take us to another place to pursue, also see a very large spectrum of the light Hot chocolate served to drink and help warm up Photos can be downloaded the following afternoon The return also directly loaded back to the hotel door, overall very worth it!!!
