Very friendly guide, who took the time to take pictures and find the best place for us to see the Northern Lights

We had an appointment for a Monday that was very cloudy and the chances of seeing the auroras would be practically zero, we called to relearn and without problem we changed to a clearer day and we managed to see them in all their splendor. Very grateful to have booked with them, we had a magical day!

We had a really great experience. Crossed to Sweden and drove many miles so we could see stunning green auroras. Professional pictures turned out great. Our guide was attentive and made sure we were always comfortable. He gave us muffins and a delicious warm beverage.

Our tour guide was Neil. He had been trying his best effort to help us hunting the Aurora despite the cloudy and unfavourable weather condition. He took care of everyone in the whole team. Able to get photos with Northern lights after 4 days. Efficient and effective! Appreciate very much indeed! Thank you very much!

It was simply amazing. It started little boring as it was snowing and was quite cloudy. But loved the sheer intent of the our guide - we drove for almost 3 hours all the way from Rovaniemi to Sweden just to watch the Northern Lights. And were able to see it thrice finally - not sure if we were lucky or the lady was determined to ensure we see it. Don’t remember the name but it was like Aurora or something - strongly recommend her.

It is really a nice trip with a not-so-long driving and I met with nice guys from all over the world, of course, the most important thing, Aurora. You won’t be regret!
