Our chase the lights tour was even more beautiful than we could have imagined. From the beginning of our tour we knew we were going to have a great night as our tour guide Miguel and driver Adam were full of information and enthusiasm, and promised to use their expertise to maximise our chances of seeing the Northern Lights while also explaining that it wasn’t in their control as the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon. We were blessed to have a small show initially which we were so pleased to see but a short time later we had a spectacular show with green, pink and purple lights dancing across the sky and they then lasted another few hours. The warm suits and boots that were included in the tour were amazing and kept us dry and warm all night Adam prepared an area to sit and watch the lights, making seats out of snow around a cozy fire and covering them with reindeer pelts so we were warm and comfortable. The included meals were delicious and so lovely to eat them around the fire while chatting to our fellow tourists. The toasted marshmallows were also delicious. Miguel had created a trivia game about facts around the Aurora Borealis, which added more fun to the night. We would highly recommend this tour as we loved it.

Alberto took us on a journey we will never forget! He and our driver took us to several spots where we saw the aurora like I’ve only seen in professional photos or in movies! He took tons of pictures for everyone, always asking if we wanted more. The lights gave us the BEST show! We ended our chase at a beach where we had hot chocolate, soup, and marshmallows around a campfire…all with the lights STILL dancing! Definitely a bucket list moment for our family. Don’t miss this opportunity! This company is top notch!

We did two evenings out with Arctic Explorers and found both evenings very enjoyable. The mini bus was comfortable and we were lucky enough to see some activity both nights - granted one was better than the other. The hot chocolate drinks were delicious and the opportunities for photos was also great.

No words can describe how incredible this experience was. We understand we got luckier than most given the conditions of the night, but regardless, our guide Petra put in a massive effort to keep everyone engaged and passionate whilst spotting out every single ray or whisp of the lights. The night turned incredible with some dancing lights, which Petra later explained the science behind around the campfire. Incredible night and thank you so much to Petra and our driver Felipe!

The tour was an absolute must! Alberto was a great guide and did everything to give us an unforgettable experience! He took as many photos of you as you wanted and always captured the best moment to take pictures! We were lucky enough to see Northern Lights and it is an unforgettable experience! Everything super organized, the small group is a must! The campfire incl. food and hot drinks made the whole thing a perfect experience!

When we started our "chase", we already knew the cloud cover would most likely persist, obscuring the lights. Alberto was great, solicitous, engaging and determined to find lights for us. We saw activity through a break in the clouds and were delighted. The fire and hot cocoa added to the experience as well Great job.
