We had an outstanding experience with our amazing Guide Angel. We had about an 1 hour drive to a nice spot where we set up a fire place, had a small Dinner and later also hot Drinks. We saw several lights and our guide took many amazing pictures of us and of the aurora. As thermal suits were provided it was not cold at all. We were back at our hotel about two o clock in the morning.

I can recommend Arctic Explorers. We booked a Northern Lights tour. We did not have the best weather conditions, but our guide Alberto did everything to let us enjoy the Northern Lights. We drove towards Finland and got lucky just before the border and saw the Northern Lights. Alberto was a very nice, striving and helpful guide.

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 despite the adverse weather, managed that we could see the northern lights! Always willing to do his best. The great food, the pleasant fire and some photos for the memory, close an unforgettable experience!

We initially booked the Chase big bus, however we received an automatic upgrade at no additional cost to the Chase minibus. Experience absolutely to recommend, pleasant group under the expert guidance of Angel who involved us with interesting explanations about Arctic nature and entertained us with funny jokes. We were able to see the fabulous Northern Lights, with photos included, and were offered a dinner in the snow around the campfire, an unexpected but absolutely wonderful experience.

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.
