We will take you to the areas with the best viewing potential for the night, away from city light pollution, even to Finland if necessary.
Enjoy a campfire with marshmallows and cup of hot chocolate in the wilderness, while our expedition leader will tell you some interesting stories from the north and legends about lady Aurora. Also you will have a chance to try "made in Tromso" soup, tailored for arctic expeditions, which will keep you warm from the inside. You will get also thermal suit to survive in cold temperatures.
After the tour, you'll receive photos taken by our expedition leader, capturing the highlights of your adventure and your portraits with Aurora, but of course, we can also help you with your camera/smartphone settings.

Unfortunate weather but great guides

5.00While it was unfortunate that we didn’t see the lights on our tour, it didn’t stop the guides from trying to get us the views. Despite the terrible weather, we tried multiple locations, the guide constantly checked the weather apps and with his colleagues, and traveled up to Finland looking for a gap in the clouds.

5.00From pickup at the cruise ship until our return, JJ our guide, was amazing. His knowledge about the lights was incredible and he knew just the right spot for us to see them. He was constantly working; driving, teaching, making fire, cooking, and photographing. Every moment was wonderful and they should get six stars!
Great Tour

5.00I had the most incredible experience with this tour group. I had Dawid as my driver and Antonio as the tour guide and they were both exceptional. After arriving at the meeting point I saw another tour guide let their tour down by telling them that there was no chance of seeing the aurora due to the weather conditions so I was beginning to worry. Then Antonio showed up, briefed our group on what was going to happen and assured us that we would drive as far as we needed to as their predictions were looking good. Dawid drove us all the way into Finland and took us to a remote road away from the main road where the sky just lit up for us. Everyone in the group managed to get their own pictures whilst Antonio took the professional ones. As we were setting up the campfire, he continued to check the aurora and got some more pictures of us when he found a different type had appeared. The campfire section was cozy and the reindeer stew, toasted marshmallows, and hot chocolate was a great addition to the night. Even on our way back to Tromsø, Antonio continued to keep an eye on the sky in case there was anymore vivid shows for us whilst Dawid drove us safely through some pretty hefty snow storms. It was a long night but 100% worth it for the experience. It really was an aurora chase and I would like to thank Antonio and Dawid for making it such an amazing and safe experience.
Thank you so much!!

5.00I cannot speak highly enough about our experience with this Juliane and Marteen! Marteen is a fabulous driver & Juliane went above and beyond to make sure we saw had the best chance of seeing the lights. They did not appear the first two hours and he was able to project that they would appear by midnight and they most definitely did with a surreal show. Juliane is very passionate about the lights and has an abundance of knowledge and experience with them. I would most definitely travel again with these two to get another glimpse. We also had the nice campfire and he went above and beyond to get amazing pictures of us. His photography skills are by far the best as northern lights can be tricky to get. Thank you so much Juliane and Marteen for this once in a lifetime experience!
Very nice tour with dedicated guides

5.00It was a really nice tour deep into the night. We saw great Northern Lights after we drove about 2.5 hours in a bus with 15 guests towards Sweden/Finland. Fantastic photos have also been taken. We got to know each other a little in the group and our guide explained and told us a lot about the Northern Lights. There was bag soup and marshmallows around the campfire. Would do the tour again anytime.
Magical
